| Hi Everyone, I was thinking today of how our precious Heavenly Father created and is in control of all things in heaven and in earth and how he gave unto Jesus Christ, his son, all power in Heaven and in Earth. We too have God's power within us because we dwell in God and God and Jesus dwell within us. Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given (by the Father) unto me in Heaven and in Earth. Matt 28:18 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven. Luke 10:19,20. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. 1 John 4:4-6 So many around us today are fearful because of what is happening in the earth and of what is yet to come to pass upon the earth to the unbelievers, all those who are not born again and whose names are not written in the Lamb's book of life. The Children of God are not afraid for we are not a part of their Kingdom. Our Kingdom that we have been born again into has no end, and has no fear of death for God has not given to us a Spirit of fear but of Love and of a Sound Mind. Our King and Ruler is Jesus Christ who has all power right now in Heaven and in Earth. He is not the ruler over their physical Kingdom that passes away but of a True Everlasting Kingdom that has no end. Men's Kingdoms of flesh and blood, although it is visible by the physical eye is the dust of the earth and shall return to dust and their eternal unclean existence or spirit will be cast into the Lake of Fire along with the Devil and his Angels, which is the second death. In the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. Daniel 2:44 When he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. Luke 17:20,21 Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but The Kingdom of Jesus Christ and of God, shall not pass away. The Eternal Kingdom of the Saints is within the Living God , That Is, Was and Is To Come. Jesus said, It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63 Rejoicing in Jesus, Lois |
