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.

THE MESSAGE OF THE KINGDOM

THE MESSAGE OF THE KINGDOM
FLOWS THROUGH THOSE
 WHO LIVE IN THE POWER OF THE KINGDOM.
IT IS LIVING WATER TO THE SOULS OF
 THOSE WHO THIRST FOR GOD.

As Jesus was sitting on a mountain talking about the end of the world, He shared with His followers about the return of The King to establish The Eternal Kingdom here on earth. He told them about the birth pains the world would go through. He explained that The Message of The Kingdom would be preached to every people group before His Kingdom would come on earth as it is in Heaven.1

As He left the wilderness after defeating the enemy Jesus began to share The Message of The Eternal Kingdom. This message would be the main focus of His earthly ministry.  One of the first things He preached was “repent for The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” After sharing these words Jesus demonstrated how close The Kingdom was by the miracles that flowed through Him. People could see The Power of The Kingdom by the way Jesus lived, and the things He said and did. 2

Jesus knew life is a journey. He understood God loves people and wants them to succeed on that journey. He saw that depending on the path they choose, they could end up in His Eternal Kingdom with His abundant blessings forever, or live the nightmare that never endsThat’s why during the three years of His earthly ministry Jesus often spoke to His disciples about The Message of The Kingdom.3  

This is The Message of The Kingdom that Jesus shared.  I love you so much that I am going to die on a cruel Cross for you.4  When I die for you I will defeat your enemy the devil and come back from the dead to provide everything you need to become part of My Kingdom, and live a victorious successful life full of meaning and purpose.5  If you will repent of the things you know offend Me, trust Me, and surrender everything you have to Me; yourself, your relationships, your hopes, dreams, goals and ambitions, and everything you possess (no matter how much or little); you will become part of My Kingdom. You will grow to know Me as we walk together every day of your life and I will be your best friend.6  I will give you everything you need in this life, and everything I have forever.7

Jesus said that “Living Water” will flow from those who are part of His Kingdom.8 This “Living Water” flowed through Peter and Paul.  They preached the same message. This message would be the main focus of their earthly ministries.  Peter’s first message was “repent for The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”  Peter and Paul not only preached about The Eternal Kingdom, but demonstrated how close The Kingdom was by the miracles that flowed through them. People could see The Power of The Kingdom by the way they lived, and the things they said and did. 9

Throughout history there are numerous examples of people who entered The Kingdom and lived in its Power. These people could not help talking about it even if it cost them their lives. People could see The Power of The Kingdom by the way they lived, and the things they said and did. These people understood this life is temporary and eternity is forever.  The Message of The Kingdom flowed through them.  It was living water to the souls around them that were thirsty for God.10

If we are living in the Power of The Kingdom, we will not be able to keep from sharing The Message of The Kingdom with others.  Not only will we share The Message of The Kingdom, but we will show people The Eternal Kingdom by the way we live, and the things we say and do.  Living Water will flow through us to the souls around us that are thirsty for God.11
