LIVING IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD
FEBRUARY 10, 2022
Extending God's blessings and Eternal Love to all the Saints world-wide,
How are things going in your part of the Kingdom? Much of it depends on us, individually, and how we think about things. Are we among those, who upon awakening each day say, "GOOD MORNING, LORD!" Or are we among those who say, "Good Lord, is it morning already?"
If we consider ourselves "living in the Kingdom of God," then our daily walk should reflect a "kingdom walk," in spite of surrounding circumstances. As one song says, "He never said there would always be sunshine. He never said there would be no rain. He only promised a heart full of singing about the very things that once brought pain."
In the Daily Devotional Guide, entitled, "Jesus and You in 2022," the scripture for today is Obadiah. This scripture talks about Esau and the not so good choices he made with his life. If he had realized the spiritual as well as physical value of his birthright, he would never have sold it for any amount, even if he starved to death.
With the concept of "living in the Kingdom," our entire life should reflect a "kingdom quality." We all are aware of the daily struggles we face, some of our own doing and some out of our control. We need not capitalize on our short comings, but when they become evident to us, we are to make immediate adjustments so we may continue "in the Kingdom Way."
As most of the world will observe "Valentine Day" on February 14, let us remember that perhaps the greatest scripture about love might be John 3:16. As we live in the Kingdom of God may we reflect a Godly love for everyone, especially for the Saints and our families. After all, if we can't love each other, can we really say we are "living in the Kingdom of God?"
If you have a copy of a little tract called, "A Father's Love Letter," read it at least once every day to remind you of His Great Love for You, that we, in turn might exhibit His Love for all we meet. If you do not have a copy, you can pull it up on the net. It was written by Barry Adams several years ago.
In the scripture below, follow the bold letters. I am not promoting Valentine Day, etc, just the Love of God.
For God so loVed the world, That he gAve His onLy begottEn SoN
thaT whosoever believeth In Him should Not perish, but have Everlasting life" John 3:16.
Stay strong, the King IS Coming!
God Bless
