Kingdom Walking, Talking & Living!
“Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” Luke 17:21.
Good morning!
The Bible teaches us much about true Kingdom walking, talking and living.
Hope you like this song as much as I do. I love this couple and their worship music
My putting this together today is just a drop in the bucket on this subject.
I sure am not a Bible scholar. Still it has been on my heart for days to delve into this, a little.
We see the unregenerated man, first in these scriptures.
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-10.
Clearly there is not yet been a ‘transformation’ into new life with these.
There is no way the unregenerated, unchanged heart can receive the inherited blessings of God.
“For The Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.” Romans 14:17.
Can you see the fruits of the Spirit in operation in this?
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-23.
This is our new man (person) transformed, now ‘born again’.
This is that true ‘Resurrection power’ that now lives within us.
It is the same ‘Resurrection power’ that raised our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead!
“And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Cor. 6:11
The ‘key’ I believe:
“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.” Galatians 5:16.
We see The Kingdom Life is daily walking, talking, and living Jesus Christ!
“That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;” Philippians 3:10.
You have to stop somewhere, I guess when writing. Still it’s very hard to stop today.
Maybe to be continued? As The LORD leads.
God bless you all.

Great word! Without the transformation this new life is impossible! Now it is up to us, with the Holy spirits strength and inspiration to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling! Praise God for new life in Him! The power to live holy, Godly lives. For His glory. Amen
Thank you Mary. Absolutely, what you spoke is so true. We could dig deep on about working out our own salvation, with the Holy Spirits strength and inspiration. Fear and trembling part reminds me of the opposite… people that are heady and high minded, etc.
Opposing forces but we can choose the good part…the needful part, as did Mary. Blessings ❤️
Yes, Joyce, We walk with Him, We talk with Him, and suddenly we realize we are alive in HIM and He is living with us at all time. He is our ever present help in time of need but HE also never leaves us. Love that song. His resurrection power brought life, paid for all we ever need. In His love, my sister, Sandi
Thanks Sandi, you said a huge mouthful. Blessed Lord and Saviour we have who is our present help in the time of trouble! Blessings. ❤️
Amen!!! Wonderful!!! Praise GOD!!!
Thank you Sherry for your encouragement. Our God is surely an awesome God! ❤️
