The path away from the Kingdom
There is an easy path you can take that no matter how much you desire to be a Kingdom citizen, this path is the one you will take if you are not passionate about My kingdom.
Without a kingdom passion, the affairs of this life will be an irresistible temptation and start you down the path of doubt and unbelief. No matter how passionate you were last year, if you have been snared by worldly affairs, your passion will switch over to worldly kingdoms, Hebrews 4:2-6.
The moment that happens doubt and unbelief will flood your soul and you begin to question everything that I have spoken to you.
In the west you will be tempted everyday to engage in worldly affairs, some of which is necessary for living. Engaging and entanglement are vastly different. Entanglement is what must be avoided at all cost, 2 Timothy 2:4,
Signing contracts that bind you to life long commitments will start the decline of passion for My kingdom. Making vows, promises, and written agreements borders on entanglement. Pray, pray and pray again before making any commitment. I know the plan I have for you and what seems innocent and small now, may be the thing that leads you down a path away from My kingdom.
Always check with Me to make sure you are seeking the kingdom first! Matthew 6:33.
