Stepping In To The Kingdom Of God

The Kingdom of God is already come, and Jesus Christ is the door to the Kingdom. And faith is the action that we take to enter that door. Faith is an action word. "By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God." Faith gets us access into the grace of God. The moment we believe, we step into and access the Kingdom of God.

Now we often speak about Christ in us. Letting Him come into our hearts and be Lord of our lives. But that's just half of the story. We must also be in Christ. "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.." And it is faith also that gets us in Christ. Now Christ is the Word of God. So entering Christ basically means that we enter His word, the Bible! The Lord said, "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture."

It's like stepping into a raft by the river and the raft is taken by the current to wherever the river flows. When we step into the word of God, we step into a prophesy, words that were spoken long ago, and they will come to pass in our lives. Because the word of God is sure to come to pass. And faith is that step that we take into that raft. And we are led by the current which is the Holy Spirit of God.

When the Bible says, "If any man be in Christ.." we step in it and say, I am in Christ. And the prophetic word, "he is a new creature.." comes to pass in us. When the Bible says, "they shall mount up with wings as eagles.." we step in it and say, I will mount up with wings as eagle! When the Bible says, "by His stripes we are healed.." we step in it and say, we are healed! When the Bible says, "Let the weak say, I am strong" we step in and say, I am strong!

The Bible says, "For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus." When we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, that was actually a step into this piece of Scripture. We are the children of God. And another person will testify to that. "The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God." We will know because the Holy Spirit will confirm it to us that we are the children of God. "And if children, then heirs, heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ."

Between God and the Politician

Often we hear during election time of Politicians platform of government and promised infrastructure projects should they be elected in office. But all those talk and speeches just go back to the filing cabinets once elections are through and kept hid until the next elections. So between God and the Politician is a great chasm, a great divide between truth and lies because Man's words are often empty, but the Word of God is never empty. Not because Man wants to lie but because he is not capable of keeping his every word. God on the other hand is able. God said: But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings, and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts (Mal 4:2-3). Those words are not empty. Surely they come to pass to them which receives them. And God has declared it that ...

Treasure Nuggets

(Gen 2:17)  but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." This goes to show that God never intended man to die. Man was meant for eternity with God. It was when Adam ate of that fruit that death entered in and reigned. (Rom 5:20)  Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, Where to find grace? It is in the very area of your shortcoming. Where sin increased, grace abounded all the more! Paul rejoices in his weaknesses for God says, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness (2Co 12:9). "   Paul declares, "For when I am weak, then I am strong!" Receive the grace of God where you have fallen, for it is there that grace abounds all the more! (Joh 15:3)  Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. The word of God is powerful. Let it dwell in you richly. It is through th...

Faith Must Produce Results

Faith must have results for the word of God are not merely words, they are spirit and they are life. Christians ought to be results oriented not only in their worldly chores but more importantly with regard to their faith. Faith without results is dead. Yea. I truly believe that. I just cannot accept that a Christian can die of Cancer. That is not just compatible with the Gospel. I refuse to accept it, it is not from God. A Christian cannot be sick for Christ lives in him and Christ cannot be sick. But why do Christians get sick? There must be something that we do not know that's why we still fall to sickness. The Lord said, "The spirit is willing but the body is weak." But why is the body weak? And if it is weak, can we strengthen it? I believe it is only through the word of God that we can answer these questions. And so we must constantly, diligently search the Scriptures. One thing I am certain of, the body is weak because we have fallen far away from God. God is...
