Endureth unto everlasting life.

'Thy Kingdom Come'

We want God's kingdom to come don't we? But what is God's kingdom? Clearly the world we live in now is not the kingdom we want, right? People talk all the time about making the world a better place. People have been trying to do this since recorded history, but they keep failing. Mankind cannot make this world into the place our hearts truly long for. People have deluded themselves into believing things of the world can somehow make this world better. They really believe in their own ability to make this world better- yet why haven't they been able to do it in thousands and thousands of years, why? What prevents this world from being harmonious in a non-dictator way? What stops us all from getting along like we really all want deep down inside?

I don't have all the answers but I do know that until God's kingdom comes there will not be anything remotely like world-wide peace.

We need God's kingdom to come.

Mat_8:11  And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

Jesus' words.

Mat_9:35  And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

Preaching the GOSPEL of the KINGDOM.

Joh_18:36  Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

Rom_14:17  For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

1Co_4:20  For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

The kingdom of GOD.

1Co 15:21  For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 

1Co 15:22  For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 

1Co 15:23  But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. 

1Co 15:24  Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 

1Co 15:25  For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 

1Co 15:26  The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. 

1Co 15:27  For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. 

1Co 15:28  And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. 

The Kingdom to God.

Thy kingdom come…

Truly we want the kingdom to come, God's kingdom to come and we have to think of THIS every single time we pray- don't we?  We must think of our Heavenly Father, whose name is holy, His kingdom come, His will….be done.

We can't ignore the kingdom come, we just can't!  Jesus PREACHED the kingdom come! The apostles preached the kingdom come!

The kingdom. God's kingdom.

We must seek the kingdom of God.

Mat_6:33  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Joh 6:27  Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
