Just One King

Zechariah 14:9

The Lord will be king over the whole earth. On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name. —

"Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Jesus taught us to pray for the day that the LORD would be The recognized King over all the earth. We look forward to that, because our faith will be shown true and the LORD himself will be glorified as he should be. In a world of profanity, a world where God's name is blasphemed, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that he is not only LORD Yahweh, but he is also incomparable without rival, that his name is the only name worthy of reverence, honor, and praise.

Christians must not practice evil

They must endure when others do evil to them:

1 Peter 2:20-23
For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God. For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:
  “Who committed no sin,
 Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;
    who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously

1 Peter 3:9
not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

Thoughts

. It is no use to pray for the old days; stand square where you are and make the present better than any past has been.  Base all on your relationship to God and go forward, and presently you will find that what is emerging is infinitely better than the past ever was. - Oswald Chambers

. The more I read and pray, the more I want to read and pray.  The less I read and pray, the less I want to read and pray. - Ed Dobson
