Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the
kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not
something that can be observed, nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There
it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.” (Luke 17: 20- 21). But the
Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach
you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
( John 14: 26).
Are we ready to let
ourselves go for God’s kingdom to take over our lives? By praying thy kingdom
come in the Lord’s Prayer then we are ready to submit ourselves to the Holy
Spirit, by giving up our will for His will to be made perfect in our lives. Ephesians 6: 12 says that; for our struggle is not against flesh and
blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the
powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the
heavenly realms. Even though there are other rulers, authorities and powers,
God’s kingdom is all you need. We need to submit to God’s rule for us to be
under His reign that is by submitting to the Holy Spirit in our midst.
