"THE THIRD PETITION".

"Q. What is the third petition in the Lord's Prayer?

A. "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven".

"Q. What do we want by this petition?

A. We ask God's help that we may stop vacillating between God and

Satan, between good and evil, and that by flatly rejecting Satan's will,

we may wholly surrender to our Father's will, as our Lord Jesus did

while praying in Gethsemane: "Thy will be done and not Mine"."
