The Kingdom Within

Intro:

• Grace is the enabling power of God
• Grace and truth comes thru. Jesus
• Holiness is more than separting yourself from bad things
• To be holy is to have the mind of God.
• Now we imitate Jesus as our example

1.      I John 2:28 (amp) And now, little children, abide (live, remain permanently) in Him, so that when He is made visible, we may have and enjoy perfect confidence (boldness, assurance) and not be ashamed and shrink from Him at His coming.

2.      John 1:12 ^(amp) But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name—

3.      John 1:13  ^(amp) Who owe their birth neither to bloods nor to the will of the flesh [that of physical impulse] nor to the will of man [that of a natural father], but to God. [They are born of God!]

• As sons of God we must live by the Word of God so the power that is within us can be manifested on the outside of us.

1.      Matt. 6:33 ^(amp) But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.

2.      When you live by the Word of God it causes the kingdom of God to manifest in you life.

3.      So let’s be doers of the Word and not just hearers.

4.      Then and only then will you see the power of God in your life.

5.      So allow the grace which has saved your soul live big in you
