Being Like The Kingdom of God

 The Bible compares the Kingdom of God is to being like 

Ten virgins who took their lamps to meet their Husband.    

This story is about being dressed, ready, prepared, supplied, rested, knowledgeable, having wisdom and understanding, and being timely. Its more than being the proverbs 31 woman its about being a woman after God's own heart first before pursuing a marital relationship. To understand that you are the light in the darkness and your lamp does not go out yet there is light throughout your whole body if the eyes have light so do you. To remember that God will be the lamp to your feet and guide your steps even your precepts, even foresight.

Having justice, mercy, and faithfulness is the perfect recipe for a successful lifestyle geared towards God.

The Bible tells us what is required of us to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. It is simply as being the vessel that shares the good news. Its as simple as being the light in the darkness and shining your lights before men that they may become like God. That your likeness in God may be revealed and the Holy Spirit may dwell in them also. 

The great mystery of the kingdom of God is a matter of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17-19) It is a matter of the heart and the Holy Spirit resting upon you. Well how do I get this type of power so I can gain access to the kingdom of God many people may ask. Acts 1:8 says you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. To gain the Holy Spirit is to be born of water and of the spirit. 

To be born of water and of the spirit may be similar to a blood cleanse, a water fast, a renewing of the mind, a renewing of the heart, a renewing of the attitude. This may require a lifestyle change, a dialogue shift, and a total transformation geared towards Christ. It is choosing to live your life and dedicate everything you do for God. Living a life honoring God and His righteousness.

The Bible tells us that where your heart is, there your treasure will be also. Therefore may we intentionally store up treasures of love. The Bible also notes that your words are stored up in your heart. Therefore we must be aware of the types of treasure we are storing in our hearts. We must be aware of the words, thoughts, memories, images, and hopes that we are storing in our hearts and be sure we are filling up our hearts with the word of God that our hearts may not be hardened like pharaoh's heart that we may be pure hearted enough to do the will of our father faithfully.


Take up your cross daily and follow God. Cross out the drama in your life, cross out the complaining, cross out the doubt, cross out all limitations and follow God. Take discipline, take courage, take faith, overflow with joy, embody love,  cultivate mercy, and treasure every good thing. 

Seek God daily and all his righteousness and more will be added unto you.

Wake up with positive thoughts being grateful for as many things as possible

Worship God with your words, breath, and everything that you do.

Fill up your day with plans to do what God has placed it on your heart to do.

The Kingdom of God is like walking and not being faint, running and not growing weary yet instead soaring on wings like an eagle and seeing the glory of God, being the glory of God made in Gods image!

15 Devices Satan Uses That You Should Know

 

Satan uses particular devices to confuse, trick, and fool believers in Christ. As Believers in Christ it is important to know satan's devices, trickery, and his plan so that we as a family in Christ may have the power to withstand all that comes our way and get through it!

1. Lukewarm: being in the world participating as a non-believer and saying that you are believing in Christ

2. Double minded: Cannot make up your mind

3. Lust: sexual desires of the flesh to commit adultery

4. Transgressions: doing the opposites of the word of God

5. Temptations: being tempted or deceived  by what is desired by the flesh or ego

6. Satan's temptation to Jesus: Satan made efforts to tempt Jesus on the mountain. Jesus was figuratively at the pinnacle when satan decided to ask Jesus to tempt God by doing the supernatural. Jesus knew what the word of God said and was able to overcome Satan's devices. Jesus was tempted by gluttony, fame, fortune, and suicide.

He told the devil the word of God says man cannot eat by bread alone so turning the rock into bread was failed gluttony attempt. Jesus knew the true bread of life is in the word of God.

He told satan that the word of God says not to tempt God so falling off the cliff was a big no. Jesus survived satans attack of trickery. Jesus has discernment, obedience, and self control that he is not easily tempted by fleshly desires

He told satan that the word of God says you shall worship the Lord God and He only you will serve so desiring fame and fortune was a gigantic no. Jesus knows his confidence comes from God. Jesus understands that only God is good. God deserves the glory, the honor, and the worship. Seeking self fame and fortune is meaningless fleshly desires. The Holy Spirit makes all spiritual gifts purposeful.

Jesus 3 points. Satan zero.


7. Beware using your power for evil: Many kings in the Bible had power. So much power one king called a faithful prisoner after God's own heart to be beheaded and delivered to a young girl upon her mothers request. Be mindful that the power God gives us is a Holy Spirit and may our spirits remain whole, pure, and filled with love that we may continue to transcend and be at continuous peace. These powers are holy spiritual powers given by God to those who believe that He is.

8. Being wise in your own eyes: being wise in our own eyes causes us to be a spectacle as we should live a life in love first then asking God to bring forth wisdom as God knows all things and has all wisdom. When we remove the spectacle from our own eyes then we can see the spectacle in our brothers eyes. Correction with Godly wisdom the Godly way will create peace and build leadership among you.

9. Your words: The relationship between building your home with words and hands: Just as one can tear down a home with bare rough hands and meaningless words through anger, resentment and unforgiveness, likewise one can build a home with kind words and loving hands, especially as parents we can say the kindest things that can encourage and transform children's mindsets. When we train up a child in the way that they should go , they shall not depart from it. It is so important that our emotional forcefield be used to build others up!

10. A man with many possessions: A man had many possessions and riches and instead of selling all that he had or giving away all that he had to the poor to go and follow Jesus, He was saddened by having to separate from his possessions. do not allow your possessions to have a strong hold on you. Possessions are simply materialistic items that come and go. Do not store up your precious treasures where moth and rust can destroy or even thieves can break in and steal. Store up your treasure in your heart this is the most valuable which is the spirit. A pure spirit is a gift indeed! God will not give you more than you can handle, be mindful the possessions you carry are not a burden but a gift from God. Be quick to give.

11. Gluttony: gluttony is the sin of over eating more than a filled belly. Gluttonous behavior showcases greed, lack of control, and disrupts physical health. If you are hungry, feed on the spiritual word of God. Fill yourselves up with the word.

12. Evil thoughts: some think evil continually be sure to hold every evil thought captive and renew the mind by thinking of things that are good and excellent

13. Promiscuity: a person continuously having sexual relations with multiple people unable to settle with one is an example of the woman with 5 husbands. This showcases lack of faithfulness, lack of boundaries, and lack of life balance. Be the bride that waits having faith that God will lead the correct partner your way. Do not let physical desires get the best of you but have a mind of Christ and remembering God is the head of the church and he has made you the head and not the tail.

14. Resentment: resentment is an example of hatred, regret, and unforgiveness towards another causing bitterness even in demeanor. Forgive always giving God all your worries and burdens. Love your neighbors just as you love yourselves and forgive your brother if he has wronged you. Do not go to bed angry. Bring your supplication, prayers, and thoughts before God, Let God judge every matter for you.

15. Idols: God said that He is a jealous God to only have one God which is your God the Lord therefore do not worship money, fame, images, materialistic items, or cars. Worship God and have a divine prayerful life with him. Idol worship is a distraction from spending true quality time with God. idol worship distracts us from having a personal relationship with God. stay vigilant, stay prayerful, stay faithful hoping always in God to bring you out of any situation and carry you through. rely on God always. Always give God the honor, God the glory, and God the praise

For The Non-Believers

Many non-believers do not believe in God's existence and demand proof of research and evidence that God is real and as the Bible says Jesus is coming soon in the form of a man and during this time many men will be looking for a sign of his coming hoping to hear trumpets and clouds departing yet the Bible clearly says that there will be no sign in the coming of Christ. In the end days all will know God and have a personal relationship with Him knowing that He is. Many atheist or non-believers seek evidence that Jesus is real or that God is real and also refute the Bible of being real. 

The truth is, whether they choose to believe the biblical stories actually happened does not really matter. It does matter that they take in each biblical story as a life lesson that can be learned for the evolution and spiritual growth of their life for the Bible is useful for today. It is in knowing the truth of God and becoming the essence of God, a compassionate nature, is when the realization of all things being beautiful, alive, vibrating is when we can realize the substance of everything that exists has birthed forth from God 's eternal abundance. When we zoom into the very fabrics of life and what every little thing is made of we realize everything is made up of plant matter, rock, or water. Many of the elements that make up the universe also are found in us. Is this a coincidence? And if you're a being, you realize God manifested you in the flesh along with your fellow sisters and brothers walking this earth. When you come to the realization that we are all God's children experiencing life from multiple perspectives you get a glimpse of the magnitude, greatness, power, and eternal love of who God is. When you form a relationship with God just by praying with Him in your closet you learn to become like Him, made in His image, and this is tuning into the frequency which is everlasting.

The purpose of these religions, traditions, are symbolic to reunite people with God and remind people of God's existence. People whom are God's people have forgotten who God is, they have forgotten the God of all creation and existence the one who created the heavens and the earth and even themselves. It is easier for them to believe in wireless connections like wi-fi, sounds, the wind,  electricity, and vibration though they cannot see any of these things with their naked eyes. wi-fi cannot be seen or heard neither can electricity. Wind and sound cannot be seen yet we believe they exist. The non-believers refuse to believe in a God they cannot see and touch and yet the Bible tells us God lives within us, is always with us, and will never forsake us. May believers and non-believer both come together to praise the name of God. that the holy essence which is Him may come alive in them also. For the presence of the Holy Spirit goes from glory to glory! God's essence is in all things that is made even the rocks cry out and praise the Lord!

In these coming times it is crucially important that one may be honest with himself and be truthful and be one with himself having a divine love that overflows to every area of His life that also reaches many others. This essence of your love, this joy, this praise from your lips is what will connect you to all things. The purity and sanctification of mind, body, and spirit is what separates a believer from a non-believer. Practice God's commandments, ordinances, and follow His ways. Your faith will make you well. Belief is one hope away! May the wisdom of God come swiftly to you!

Galatians 5:25
