#1 – The Realm of the Kingdom.
Scripture: “The kingdom of God is within you.” (Luke 17:21)
The kingdom is the realm where the King reigns. The gospel or good news of the kingdom is the news that Jesus reigns! Where He reigns, we can expect righteousness, peace and joy (Romans 14:17).
The Pharisees once asked Jesus when the kingdom of God would come. Jesus replied that it would not come by carefully observing the times and seasons because the kingdom is within (or inside) them (Luke 17:20-21).
If Jesus is king of your life, that is where the realm of His kingdom is. Today the disciples of Jesus Christ continue to proclaim the good news of the kingdom. God is still rescuing people from the dominion of darkness and bringing them into the kingdom of His Son (Colossians 1:13).
Is Jesus your king?
King of my life I crown Thee now, Thine shall the glory be.
- Jennie Evelyn Hussey (1874-1958)
Prayer:
1. Pray that everyone in our nation will seek and find the kingdom and the King.
2. Pray that believers in all our churches will experience the righteousness, peace and joy of the kingdom.
