THE KINGDOM PRINCIPLE-2


Text : Matthew 6:33.

But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.

We live in a world where everything is calling for your attention. Everything around you wants you to expend your time and energy on it.

The order in the world is to seek everything else before the kingdom. A young child thinks he's too young to be serious about the kingdom, when he becomes a student, his education becomes the priority. After that, pursuit for food, shelter and clothing becomes paramount in his heart. And the rat race continues, until he becomes old or too weak before he remembers God. At this time, he will realize to his hurt that he has misplaced his priorities. 

Unfortunately, some don't even get to realize their need for the kingdom until they close their eyes in death.

Jesus Christ says, this is not the order in this kingdom. What the people of the world seeks will be added to you when you have sought the kingdom and its righteousness.

God's kingdom principles brings heavens wisdom and influence into our lives right here on earth. We operate in a kingdom principled life style by flowing in the fruit of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:22-23).

You need Godly wisdom to live an upright and peaceable life here on earth. James  3:17 says,  'But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.'

The wisdom with which the people of the world operates by is always in opposition to God's wisdom. When you are a seeker of God's kingdom, you'll operate by this higher wisdom and principle.

 Bible reading:

 Matthew 22:34-40.

 PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father, I pray that you bless me with your wisdom that I may lead a life that will bring pressure to you.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
