Memory Verse: Matthew 16:19. I will give you the keys of heaven’s kingdom realm to forbid on earth that which is forbidden in heaven, and to release on earth that which is released in heaven.”
Bible Reading: Matthew 16:16-18 Key Verse: v16.
Simon Peter spoke up and said, “You are the Anointed One, the Son of the living God!” Jesus replied, “You are favored and privileged Simeon, son of Jonah! For you didn’t discover this on your own, but my Father in heaven has supernaturally revealed it to you. I give you the name Peter, a stone. And this truth of who I am will be the bedrock foundation on which I will build my church—my legislative assembly, and the power of death will not be able to overpower it!
Jesus was having a private chat with his disciples when he wanted to know if they understood the person they were dealing with. He first asked them whom men out there thought him to be. “When Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples this question: “What are the people saying about me, the Son of Man? Who do they believe I am?” They answered, “Some are convinced you are John the Baptizer, others say you are Elijah reincarnated, or Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.” Matthew 16:13-14. After that he wanted to be sure if themselves knew whom they were relating with because all this time he had not told them whom he was. When Peter answered correctly, Jesus knew it was given him by revelation and not human wisdom.
Now Jesus went ahead to confirm Peter as a stone carved out of the rock of ages who had what it takes to walk in God’s plan for his life.”Listen to me, all you who are serious about right livingand committed to seeking God.Ponder the rock from which you were cut,the quarry from which you were dug. Yes, ponder Abraham, your father,and Sarah, who bore you.Think of it! One solitary man when I called him,but once I blessed him, he multiplied.” Isaiah 51:1-2 MSG. God’s plan is that he will be used to deepen the work of God to reach the ends of the earth, after Jesus was gone. This grace became very visible starting from the upper room on the day of Pentecost as contained in Acts chapter 2.
That pentecostal experience was the foundation of Jesus earthly kingdom which we are part of today. This kingdom is established to contend for all Jesus stood and died for as to make them real on earth using ordinary men. “But throughout the history of these kingdoms, the God of heaven will be building a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will this kingdom ever fall under the domination of another. In the end it will crush the other kingdoms and finish them off and come through it all standing strong and eternal. It will be like the stone cut from the mountain by the invisible hand that crushed the iron, the bronze, the ceramic, the silver, and the gold.”The great God has let the king know what will happen in the years to come. This is an accurate telling of the dream, and the interpretation is also accurate.” Daniel 2:44-45 MSG. The church of Jesus is God’s earthly kingdom that rules over others destroying them, taking over and controlling what happens on earth.
Prayer ; Thank you Father God for building your kingdom on earth through mortal men to enforce your will. Thank you for making me part of your army and kingdom. Help me not to fail in any area you have appointed me to occupy till you come in Jesus wonderful name……. Amen 🙏🏿.
