Day 184. What is God’s will? (2025)

Today is day 184 and we are on the section on The Third Petition: "Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven".

184. What is God’s will?

God’s will is to reconcile all things to himself in Jesus Christ

and to establish his kingdom on the earth. His will is revealed in the whole of Scripture and especially in Jesus Christ, whom I am called to serve and imitate with my whole life. (Deuteronomy 6:4–5; Psalm 119:1–16, 104–5; Proverbs 4:1–9; Matthew 22:36–40; John 6:39–40; Romans 8:28–30; 12:1–2; 2 Corinthians 5:18–19)

We will conclude today with Proper 9 found on page 617 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
