Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on Earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

What does that part mean?
I understand the rest but I don't understand what this means.
I know the prayer but I don't understand this particular bit.
Help me out Christian bros.
His "will" will be done. As in, what he wants to accomplish, will be accomplished. His "will." So it's saying, God ultimately will win. In Earth, and in heaven, ultimately it will be God's will that wins in the end- not Satan and not human beings.
That's always been my interpretation.
