THINGS ABOVE 2

-
Colossians 3:2
 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

The prayer of God's own.

Matthew 6:10
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven.

The Lord's prayer is still relevant. It never lost its potent power, revelation and authority. It is only that wisdom was revealed we saw beyond the fundamentals.

Every believer should understand that we were not sent on earth to build our own agenda, but to be an extension of God's kingdom. Every idea that is good is released to man from God. Though many may have received who may not be believers, yet all are from God. They are mere tools. selah!

James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

The babylonian king who was able to build a city that stood on water said "Is it not this great Babylon I have built" however he had to confess God's greatness after he experienced God's power first hand. He then understood that all was from God, Even the evil man for the evil day.(selah).

So every believer must seek God's kingdom established here on earth.

Luke 17:21
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

That is God living in you and me if we have been born again.

John 3:5
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

We carry Him on the inside, we express Him in all we do, His power revealed by the word and power, the Holy Spirit.

Romans 14:17
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

We live here but we "rep" heaven, His glory, His love, His power, His word and His works.

Psalms 119:16
I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word

No matter how busy we are, no matter how much fun we are having, no matter the pain, no matter the celebration. We must not forget.

We are an extension of His kingdom. We are ambassadors, our authority is from above.

 John 8:23
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

John 3:31
He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.

God bless you, child of the kingdom.


Have a lovely day.

Love
@ the watcher.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
