EVERYDAY IN THE WORD!
WEDNESDAY MARCH 11, 2026.
SUBJECT: UNDERSTANDING THE CONCEPT OF KINGDOM OF GOD!
Memory verse: "For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit." (Romans 14 vs 17.)
READ: Luke 17 vs 20 - 21:
17:20: Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation;
17:21: nor will they say, ' See here!' or 'See there!' For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you."
INTIMATION:
The kingdom has a Constitution. Every kingdom is governed by a Constitution, and in the kingdom of God, it is the Word of God. It's not a devotional, it's not a feel-good book, it's not an opinion. It's law. The Scriptures in Psalm 119 vs 89, say, "Forever, O Lord, Your Word is sertled in heaven." The Word of God tells you how to live, what your rights are, what the King excepts, what promises belong to you, and what powers you have been given. If you don't know the Constitution, you will live beneath your authority.
A kingdom has culture and economy. Every kingdom has a way of life, a culture that makes it unique. Heaven's culture is one of holiness over compromise, honor over pride, peace over anxiety, love over hate, truth over trends and lies, joy over despair.
It also has an economy built on truth not fear. Provisions flow from the King. He said in the Scriptures Matthew 6 vs 33, "But seek First the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." When you live by kingdom culture, You don't panic when the world does. You don't beg for what God already promised. You just walk in divine alignment and your needs are met by the King.
The currency of the kingdom is faith, not the world currencies such as naira, dollar, pound etc. Without faith it is impossible to please and receive from the King. The Scriptures, in Hebrews 11 vs 6, say, "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."
God's kingdom does not exist in other for men to fulfill the lusts of the flesh through eating and drinking. The kingdom reign of Jesus in the hearts of men exists in order that the Will of the Father be done on earth as it is done in heaven. In this way, the kingdom reign of Jesus promotes doing right, social peace and joy among men. The kingdom of God involves relationships, relationship between God and man (justification), and men and men (peace and joy).
The Scriptures, in Matthew 6 vs 9 - 10, say, "Therefore, after manner pray; Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven." The kingdom reign is within one as he or she submits to the Will of the Father. As the Will of the Father is done in the hearts of men and women on earth as it is done in heaven, then the kingdom comes. Though the kingdom has already come in the hearts of many throughout the world today, there still those places in the world where Jesus is not reigning in the hearts of men.
A kingdom advances, it doesn't retreat. The kingdom of God is not hiding in the shadows. It's not a weak passive belief system. It's a force. The Scriptures in Matthew 11 vs 33 say, "And from the days of John the Baptist untill now the kingdom of God suffers violence and the violent take it by force." That means the kingdom is advancing, taking territories, breaking chains, breaking boundaries, transforming hearts, and establishing heaven on earth. It's not a place you wait to die to experience it. It's a power you live in now.
Prayer: Abba Father, thank You for the gift of Your Son to the world through Him we are redeemed from slavery of sin and death, and for the privilege of sonship in Your kingdom. You have made us to reign on the earth as kings and priests, and will eternally live with You in Your kingdom, in Jesus’ Name I have prayed, Amen.
PRAISE THE LORD!
