Many Christians don’t know how to walk in the way of the Kingdom. “For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” The way of the Kingdom is in the spirit, not the flesh. Those who choose to live in the spirit are sons of God as “God is spirit.” “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” The Holy Spirit is in you so you can live through Him. “Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
One truth that has been hidden from many Christians is the fruit of light. What is the fruit of light? “For the fruit of the Light is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth.” The fruit of righteousness is, “Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.” We see now that righteousness and peace are in the Holy Spirit and are fruits of light. The joy of the Lord is to be your strength. How does this happen? For everything that you are going through, rejoice, pray, and give thanks. “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” “Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and THE PEACE OF GOD, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Don’t let the circumstances that come against you STEAL your joy. “The thief does not come except to STEAL, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly.” The circumstance that comes against you is to destroy your house, you. If you keep rejoicing, praying, and giving thanks in the middle of the storm, you will never be shaken. “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”
I pray that the eyes of your understanding be enlightened to the way of the kingdom. “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.” Be blessed, my friends
