Thy Will Be Done - Choosing Gods Will Over Our Own | 5AM Podcast S2E2

In this episode VeeKay discusses the famous verse "Thy Will Be Done," and the meaning and importance of surrendering one's personal desires and plans to God's divine will. They emphasize that this concept is not merely a statement but a fundamental principle for living a purposeful and God-honoring life.* The discussion on "Thy will be done" begins with Kay explaining it often looks like what one doesn't want to do, referencing the Lord's Prayer from Matthew 6:9-13. She highlights Jesus's demonstration in the Garden of Gethsemane (Matthew 26:39), concluding with **"nevertheless not as I will but as you will,"** which serves as an example of perfect obedience and love for God. Vee adds that accepting this "nevertheless" requires joy and trust that God's plan is superior.* Vee then elaborates on the importance of surrendering one's will, especially for Christians seeking to fulfill their divine purpose on Earth. She references Matthew 6:10, explaining that "in earth, as it is in heaven" means things **"fixed" in heaven can be "laid over" or "superimposed" on earth** through our choice to receive them via surrender and prayer.* The hosts emphasize that surrendering involves "taking up our cross," giving up personal desires for God's will, which can be challenging and may involve "crying the ugly cry" or the "death of your will". They conclude that this surrender is a continuous process that allows God's kingdom to manifest through believers, ultimately leading to something greater than personal desires, even if those desires are not met.Remember to like, comment, and subscribe for more episodes of The 5 AM Podcast.
