The meaning, of course, is that evil may seem to have the upper hand for awhile, but in the end God's eternal will and law will be victorious. Until then we need to continue praying as if all depends on God (which it does) and work as if all depends on us and the work of our hands to fight evil and wrongdoing with all the strength that comes from Him.
