The Kingdom of God is within us (Luke 17:20-21). In this realm there
is no more crying, sickness or death. It is only in this Kingdom
where we meet and speak with God. I believe this is the only place
where we can truly see His presence. There are no material things in
this Kingdom. I believe when we find the silence in His Kingdom it
gives us the eyes to see the reality of His growing church, the Body
of Christ. We are told to seek first the Kingdom
of God. In this realm is where we find His reign. Remember, our
heart is where our treasure is. The riches are where Christ is and
that is in us (Colossians 1:26-27). When we seek His Kingdom first,
everything will be added to us (Matthew 6:21-34). Colossians 1:12-13 giving thanks to
the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the
saints in light. 13 For He rescued us from the domain of darkness,
and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, Notice the Kingdom had come that
Matthew 16:28 and Mark 9:1 wrote about. We cannot witness to others if we're
not in His Kingdom. Many think they are witnessing by sharing things
about Jesus and the bible but if there's no peace, hope, joy or
love, they are not witnessing from His Kingdom. In other words, we
cannot be witnessing for God unless we're centered in His Kingdom.
There, is where righteousness dwells and that is where we find love
peace and joy. The following verses are from the Easy
To Read Version (ERV)
Trust in the Lord and wait quietly for
his help. Don't be angry when people make evil plans and succeed.
Psalm 37:7 God says, "Stop fighting and know
that I am God! I am the one who defeats the nations; I am the one
who controls the world." Psalm 46:10 God, you give true peace to people who
depend on you, to those who trust in you. Isaiah 26:3 Also, the Spirit helps us. We are very
weak, but the Spirit helps us with our weakness. We don't know how
to pray as we should, but the Spirit himself speaks to God for us.
He begs God for us, speaking to him with feelings too deep for
words. 27 God already knows our deepest thoughts. And he understands
what the Spirit is saying, because the Spirit speaks for his people
in the way that agrees with what God wants. Romans 8:26-27 But you, dear friends, use your most
holy faith to build yourselves up even stronger. Pray with the help
of the Holy Spirit. Jude 20
