This week I am ending off this
series of Kingdom living. I truly hope you have learned as much as
I have. His Kingdom is marvellously glorious and we are part of it.
And we are not merely part of it; we are part of it as His sons,
royalty. I know I wrote a devotion about being God's son about a
year ago, but I feel it is fitting to mention it again and to end
off this series with this wonderful truth. Let me just build up
your faith by quoting a couple of Scriptures from God's Word once
again:
"For as many as are led by the
Spirit of God, these are sons of God. The Spirit Himself bears
witness with our spirit that we are children of God." Romans 8:14,
16
"For you are all sons of God
through faith in Jesus Christ." Galatians 3:26
"For as many as received Him,
to them He gave the right to become children of God." John
1:12
"I will be a Father to you, and
you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty." 2
Corinthians 6:18
We are God's sons and a son of God
abides in His house forever:
"And a slave does not abide in
the house forever, but a son abides forever." John 8:36
We are forever in the house of God.
God the Father, the Supreme Being over all the galaxies, planets,
stars and heavens is our Father. And we can stay with Him forever.
We are part of His Kingdom forever. The moment we accepted Jesus
into our lives our spirits were reborn into His Kingdom and there
we will remain forever. The first part of our Kingdom living will
be on earth and the second (and much longer part) will be
physically alongside Him.
We have learned that in His Kingdom
as God's sons we are destined to reign, we are royalty, we are
healthy, we are blessed, we are co-heirs with Jesus Christ and so
much more. The benefits of the Kingdom is overwhelming and the love
of God cascading down on us is extraordinary. We simply need to
make it our own. As sons, we need to imitate our Father and become
just like Him. As sons we need to make Him proud and show all
unbelievers how privileged we are in order to lure them in.
Our Father looks after us, what do
we have to be afraid of? Our Father protects us, why are we so
scared? Our Father provides, why are we so worried? Our Father
loves us, why do we act so unloved? Our Father sustains us, why do
we run to other sources?
Stand up as the son that you are.
Know who you are and walk in the reality of what is true of you.
Live out Kingdom principles and be the son of God you were destined
to be.
God has such a special plan for
you, such a unique place to fill. Walk right into it and allow
Kingdom living to manifest. This world needs the sons of God to
stand up and be counted. This world is groaning, waiting for the
sons of God to free it from distress. Allow the Spirit of God to
arise within you and to change this world through you. You are His
flesh and blood. Act like it. Act like you believe it. Then
spiritual powers will be unleashed, chains broken and prisoners set
free. Revival will break out, souls will be saved and the Kingdom
of God will advance in a dark world. Stand up, the time has come,
there cannot be delays any longer. The sons of God need to take up
their swords and unleash the victory of Christ upon this world. The
powers of darkness will fall back; they have no ground to stand on.
Wear the helmet of salvation, the body armour of righteousness, the
shield of faith, the belt of truth, the shoes of Good News and
swing your sword. Victory is ours. The Grace of God will be
mightily with you. His Word has declared it so. Be strong and
courageous, the King of kings has already overcome this world.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah on High! All
glory to You oh God! You are mighty, awesome and deeply loved. We
exalt You on high. We praise You and magnify Your Name forever and
ever! Amen
