will be done on earth as it is in Heaven
Matthew six ' ten. We're going to dive into scripture.

today's episode so.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
To understand Heaven's blueprints let's break down again the foundational
scripture of Matthew six ' ten. I love when we
get to the foundations of scripture because it just brings
so much death of what we're talking about. It just
begins to unpack all the understanding of that scripture. So
let's look at the verse. Jesus instructs his disciples to
(01:38):
pray your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth
as it is in heaven basiliyah. The kingdom. This, as
we know, refers to not just a place, but it's
that ruling and reigning where God sits. You know, this
(01:59):
isn't a heaven being a distant location we wait for.
It's about Heaven's rule invading Earth right now. When we
align with the blueprint, we're inviting God's sovereignty and his
way of doing things into our own lives on a
daily basis. The word will and this passage is the
(02:22):
Greek word thelma, meaning that this is God's desire, his purpose, desire,
and his attention. It's about surrendering our own plans and
submitting to what God has already designed, what He's already written.
Heaven's blueprint is about synchronizing our lives with God's ruleship,
(02:43):
and purpose, trusting that His ways are higher than hours.
That's Isaiah fifty five, verse nine. So like to truly
grasp God's design, Let's take a Let's take it back
to Genesis, where the concept of alignment with heaven began.
In Justis chapter one, twenty six, God says, let us
(03:06):
make mankind in our image, in our likeness. The Hebrew
word for the image is to sell them, meaning a
shadow or a representation. This means that we were created
to reflect the nature and the authority of God here
on earth. The word here for likeness is demand, which
(03:31):
implies functioning in a similar pattern or a role as God.
It means again, to function in a similar pattern or
a role as God. So from the beginning, humanity was
(03:52):
designed to operate as the ambassadors of Heaven, representing God's
will bringing his kingdom to earth. You know, Sin disrupted disalignment,
but with Christ we are restored to that original purpose.
Ephesians chapter two, verse ten says, for we are God's
(04:13):
handy work, created in Christ Jesus to do good works
which God prepare in advance for us to do. You
know that Greek word for handiwork Here boyema, meaning the
masterpiece or work of art. We are God's masterpiece, created
(04:34):
intentionally to carry out his heaveny design. So how do
we practice living out Heaven's design. Let's look at the
three steps. You know. The first thing that we need
to do that you're constantly going to keep hearing, you know,
the body regurgency is you need he to renewed your mind,
(04:56):
but not just renew it, renew it with the kingdom
thinking Colossians chapter three, verse two. It's instructing us to
set our minds on the things above and now on
the earthly things. The word said in Greek means throw nail,
meaning to focus intentively or direct one's thoughts with purpose.
(05:19):
This means that we have to intentionally shift our mindset
from a temporary earthly concern to an eternal, kingdom focused goal.
We have to start our day with prayer and scripture meditation.
We have to ask God to reveal errors where we're
thinking it needs to be aligned with his. The second
(05:43):
thing is carrying Heaven's culture into every atmosphere or every
sapphire or of influence. Heaven's Blue prayer is in confined
to a Sunday morning. It's meant to permonate every area
of life. Think about Joseph and Genesis chapter thirty nine.
(06:04):
Even as a slave, he carried God's presence in favor.
You know the word for a Hebrew for prospered in
Genesis chapter thirty nine, Verse two is sellah, meaning to
advance or succeed because of divine intervention, bringing Heaven's culture
(06:27):
to our workplace. By acting with integrity, showing kindness, and
praying for your co workers. That's kingdom. And number three,
we walk in obedience and in faith. Alignment with Heaven's
blueprint requires obedience even when it doesn't make sense. Genesis
chapter twelve, Verse one, God tells Abram, go from your country,
(06:51):
your people, and your father's household to the land where
I will show you a Bram didn't have all the details,
but he obeyed in that faith. The word here for go,
let hel ho and le he ha. This one's a
tough one. I just yeah, I'm not such a Hebrew specialist.
(07:14):
I actually have to search these things out and learn
how to pronounce them. And this one was a tough one.
But it means to go forth for yourself or on
a personal journey. Sometimes that obedience means stepping out of
your comfort zone and follow God's unique plan for us.
I know we have to ask God for the courage
to take that bull step of faith and trust that
(07:36):
He is guiding us into that alignment with his perfect will.
So living out Heaven's blueprint isn't always easy. I know
many of us had to endure this. Often. God will
shift some things around, but we would have to trust
him with what we don't know. We will start. You know,
we can face distractions, fear the opposition. But here's how
(08:01):
to overcome that. Number One, you have to stay rooted
in the word. You know, the Bible's our guide to
Heaven's design and the Greek word for a word in
John one one is logos, meaning that the divine expression
or ultimate truth. Staying connected to the locals is to
stay aligned. Number two cultivating lifestyle worship. I can't tell
(08:26):
you how many times worship has shifted my focus from
circumstances to God's greatness. So when we worship, and the
meaning of herees it means about down or surrender, and
worship kind of keeps our heart aligned with Heaven. But
with that surrender. And then three, we surround ourselves with
(08:50):
Kingdom minded people. You gotta do this because it's the
only way to survive. Proverbs twenty seven seventeen reminds us
that iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. We
have to choose our relationships that encourage us and helps
us to grow in and stay in alignment with God's
will as we walk in Christ. If I'm going to
(09:14):
leave you with anything, I'm gonna leave you with this.
Heaven's blueprint is a gift, but it requires us being intentional.
So as we align our thoughts, our actions, and our
decisions with God's design, we will begin to see His
kingdom manifests in the areas of our life. Here's a
challenge for this week. Take one area of your life,
(09:35):
whether it's your work, your family, or your time, and
ask God, how can how can we align it more
with Heaven's principle and then step step out into that
faith and trust that He's guiding us. So thank you
