ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.
Sunday April 28th, 2024.
Topic :The Kingdom And The Power.
Memory verse :Matthew 6:10. your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Bible Reading :Luke 17:20-22 NIV. Key Verse : v21.
Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.” Then he said to his disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.
Jesus just healed 10 lepers and one of them came back to appreciate or thank him and was made whole. After that incident the Pharisees came to Jesus to ask when the kingdom of God should come. They were expecting the kingdom as spoken by prophet Nathan in 2 Samuel chapter 7. Nathan there was relaying God’s plan for king David at the point when David desired to build God a befitting house and was stopped by God by the mouth of his servant, Prophet Nathan. The word from the Lord went beyond Solomon to talk about the emergece of the Messiah in v13. Jesus is the son of David whose kingdom, which also is the kingdom of God should last forever. No other invidividual from the lineage of David fits into this description. The Jews knew about this kingdom that was also spoken of by Daniel and other prophets and they looked upto it’s emergence. “In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.” Daniel 2:44.
Now the Pharisees wanted to observe a kingdom, but Jesus wanted them to be participant in and participants of the kingdom. Jesus was trying to let them know that what they were looking for was already with them. All they needed was understanding as to key into God’s move in their days. Fact is that Jesus Christ came to the earth simply to establish the kingdom of God in the hearts of men. This kingdom functions in men through the working of the Holy Spirit given to us to live by. Anywhere the kingdom of God is manifested, we experience God moving in his supernstural power that makes things happen in the lives of men. That is all about a life of signs and wonders as spoken by Jesus to his disciples before he left for heaven. “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” Mark 16:17-18.
Prayer :Thank you Lord Jesus for building a kingdom of power and and mighty works on earth for yourself. From today, I want to be an active player in your kingdom
Let your Spirit be at work in me to help me live above every forces of limitations just like yourself in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Ezra 3:8-13.
