Seeing And Entering The Kingdom Of God by beckhapa: 4:04pm On Aug 30, 2019 |
Prevailing Word: “Jesus answered and said unto him, verily verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. – John 3:3 Memory Verse: “Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. – John 3:5 Have you “seen” the Kingdom of God since you got born-again or since you joined a living church? The second aspect is if you have been able to “enter” the kingdom of God. I don’t think many of us have been able to experience this “seeing” and “entering” dimension of the born-again experience as it relates to the Kingdom of God. “Seeing” the kingdom is a spiritual exercise or experience that will forever alter all your values and priorities. Jesus Christ our Lord spent the entire 13th chapter of Matthew teaching about the kingdom of God. It was a frequent theme of His ministry. One of the parable, He gave concerning the kingdom is found in Matthew 13: 44-46. The Kingdom of heaven is like “a treasure hid in a field”. A man found it and sold everything he had in order to buy that field. A merchantman found that “pearl of great price” and sold everything he had in order to get that pearl. These two people reportedly sold everything they had in order to access the kingdom. They “saw” or ‘discovered’ something about that kingdom that made them, to give up everything in order to access the kingdom! Have you “seen” anything in the Kingdom of God that will make you to give up everything else in order to get it. Jesus our Lord says that unless one is born-again, he won’t be able to “see” that kingdom. The kingdom of God is a “world” inside “our world” – where God’s Word is obeyed unquestionably. It is a kingdom where miracles are the norm, where righteousness and true holiness are its “culture”. It is a kingdom of absolute abundance and wealth, where there is no scarcity. Everyone inside that kingdom lives a healthy life. No sickness, no disease, no death. It is “heaven on earth”. It takes the “born-again” experience to start perceiving or seeing this great kingdom. It is a kingdom where God communes with man freely. It is “another level of existence”. It is with a parallel universe. Satan, demons, sin, sickness, poverty, etc have no place there. It takes the born-again “experience to “enter” that kingdom. Seeing is different from entering. Moses saw the promised land but did not enter it. You will see and you will enter. Action Point: If you have never had the born-again experience, it is time for you to accept Jesus into your life so that you experience heaven on earth. ....................................................................................................... Prayer Point: Oh Lord, as from today I will begin to obey your word in Jesus Name Amen! Bible Reading: Joshua 9,10,11 and John 5 https://www.facebook.com/reo43331/posts/2426088690800570 1 Like

Nice one. I "think" and strongly believe that once you are on that path (path of righteousness) God start revealing secret things to you or you begin to find hidden things unexpectedly. You begin to experience happiness and empathy frequently. You become totally fearless like someone on drugs. It is a strange feeling only repentance can guarantee. If you slip back into sin satan attack with more anger and violence. The word of GOD is totally true. |
