You have established the earth and it continues. All things stand this day according to your directions. For all things are your servants (Ps. 119:91). God himself loves the earth dearly and never takes his hands off it. And because he loves it and it is good, our care of it is also eternal work and a part of our eternal life.

Dallas WillardSo when Jesus directs us to pray, โThy kingdom come,โ he does not mean we should pray for it to come into existence. Rather, we pray for it to take over at all points in the personal, social, and political order where it is now excluded: โOn earth as it is in heaven.โ With this prayer we are invoking it, as in faith we are acting it, into the real world of our daily existence
