There is a Kingdom that has always been, and will always be. It is found in the heart of Jehovah God who has no beginning or end. He lives in eternity, and rules over all that exist. Before time began, before you were born, God had an eternal purpose for your life. The only way to find and fulfill this eternal purpose is through a relationship with The Eternal King, Jesus Christ. This blog is about The Eternal King and His Kingdom. It is about how you can be part of His Kingdom by having a relationship with Him, and fulfilling His eternal purpose for you.

MEETING THE NEEDS OF PEOPLE

Living in the Power of the Kingdom
ENABLES YOU TO
MEET THE NEEDS OF PEOPLE

They wandered the roadsides like homeless men, but those in need came to them.1   It all started with a man who had no concern for himself, but a deep burden for the needs of others.  He left his steady job as a carpenter and became consumed with helping people become part of The Kingdom.   He gathered a group of followers and began to teach them about living in The Power of The Kingdom.  Because of His compassionate love for others He demonstrated The Power of The Kingdom  by ministering to every request brought to Him.  He taught His followers not to be concerned about their own needs because Father God  promised that if they made living in The Power of The Kingdom their number one priority every need they had would be met.2  They just needed to live daily in a committed relationship to God.  Who was this group of men?  Jesus  and His followers!3

Those who spend time with Jesus each day grow to become like Him.4  They are secure in the knowledge that God  loves them and will take care of every need they have as they seek to live in obedience to His Spirit.   Because they are secure in God’s  love they have a compassionate love for people and a desire to be used of God  to meet the needs they see.  Out of their relationship with God  they come to realize only God can meet the real needs of people. The Power of God’s Kingdom  can flow through them because they have grown to know God, and they allow God’s Spirit  to live in them and guide their  lives.  They know it is this Power from God  that can solve the problems of the world.  They are aware it is the world’s only hope, not people or governments.  Fellowship with God  enables them to see the true needs, not just the wants of people, because they see them through God’s  eyes.5   When ministering to people they are careful to point to God as the real source of the need being met because they know God  gave them the ability to meet the need.6  Those who spend time with Jesus  are able to meet every request for help that comes to them because they know they can do something even if it’s simply to pray for the need.7

Do you want to meet the needs of your world?  If you know God, He is calling you to be the answer to the problems of the world around you.8 He wants you to grow to know Him so His Spirit can guide your life, and His Power  can flow through you to meet the needs of those who request help.  If His Spirit lives in you, you can always meet a need even if it’s just praying for it.  Living in God’s Power is the way you can meet the needs of your world. 

Question: Are you living in fellowship with God so His Power can flow through you and meet people’s needs.
