"...God is inviting us to interact with Him, to perceive things spiritually, and to partner with Him to accomplish them on earth - and that only happens through prayer.
"As we partner with God through prayer, we bring things out of the spiritual realm into our lives. These gifts of God that come from heaven are already stored up for us, but we will never have them unless we pray and ask God for them. He is doing such wonderful things for us, and we receive and enjoy those things through the power and privilege of prayer.
"The Lord's Prayer says, 'Your will be done on earth even as it is done in heaven.' When we pray that way we are partnering with God through prayer so that the purposes and plans He has in the spiritual realm will come to pass on earth - in our lives and in the lives of those around us. Through prayer we have the privilege of bringing heaven to earth!"
Joyce Meyer in Love Out Loud Devotional, July 3
