The Kingdom of God

 “Thy kingdom come.” Look how Jesus said that the kingdom of God comes within a person and how he told Nicodemus you cannot see the kingdom of God unless you are born of spirit. If we want the kingdom to come, it is a matter of something happening inside each of us, something started by the will of God, something started by the work of Spirit, the spirit of the words of Jesus, the Holy Spirit bringing from what belongs to Jesus - power, love, sound-mindedness - and making it known to us. It starts with spiritual rebirth. It starts with resurrection of Jesus giving us new improved prospects, brought about by God Himself. Then it develops into the kingdom of God within. It is worth everything we have to find it and to receive it within us, individually and corporately, collectively, uniting us who have it within. But to others it is invisible, so they might not even believe it exists. Jesus Christ died for you. God raised him from the dead for you. God wants you to have His kingdom within you and did all this. How much more will He do, having done all this, including giving you the Holy Spirit when. believing, you ask.
