The Kingdom of God

Mark 1:14-15 NKJV
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel."

John the Baptist called people to repent and after His baptism by John, Jesus said that the Kingdom of God was at hand as it is for us today. The only thing that separates us from it is our belief. The kingdom of God is not some physical place. It is within you and it is where the abundance of resources reside.

John 3:3 NKJV
Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."

As long as you have received Jesus as your Savior, that kingdom is in you! Your spirit man is born again and Holy Spirit is with you. As we practice His presence within us acknowledging who He is and allow Him to work through us the miraculous becomes reality all around us.

The same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in us. That same power is available to work miracles in our lives and in the lives of all those we come in contact with, all those we prayer for face to face and afar.

Romans 14:17 NKJV
for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Luke 17:21 NKJV
For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.

Father God, help us live life knowing who abides in us. Help us know who we are in Christ as we walk forth in this world allowing Holy Spirit to work through us. May we be a light that shines in the darkness all around us. In Jesus name we pray.
