TOPIC: The Kingdom Lifestyle (I) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 17 September 2021)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Zechariah 8-14

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 5:1-16

1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

MEMORY VERSE: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” – Matthew 5:16

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
If truly you are a child of God, everything about you must reveal the depth of Christlikeness in you.

PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
YOUR LIFE WILL NOT BE A DISGRACE TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:

The Kingdom of God is an expression of God’s authority, dominion, character and lifestyle. None has seen the Father, but the Bible tells us that Jesus is His express image. Jesus Christ came to demonstrate the glory, beauty, pattern and lifestyle of the kingdom of God, and He was in every way strange to the society at that time. Jesus Christ was regarded an enemy by the Saducees and the Pharisees because His lifestyle exposed the odious weakness and frailties of their worldly lifestyle at that time.

Jesus exemplified the kingdom lifestyle. He preached and taught the kingdom’s principles to the multitudes that came to Him, and also spent quality time exposing the principles and practice of the kingdom to His disciples. The hallmark of the kingdom lifestyle is best revealed in the book of Matthew from chapters five through to seven in the teaching of Jesus. The sermon of Jesus on the Mount closely reveals to us that Christianity is all about developing a godly character. This is the totality of Christ-like virtues, in word and in deed. For any Christian to manifest the kingdom lifestyle at all, he or she must exude the fruit of the Spirit.

Beloved, you have been redeemed to reflect this kingdom lifestyle. The apostle Paul, confidently stated that “the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God and approved of men” (Romans 14:17-18).

We are not of this world although we live here. Our citizenship is in heaven (Philippians 3:20-21). Therefore, you should conduct yourself according to the lifestyle that shows your true home country. In every way possible you should abstain from worldliness, activity of the flesh and every evil thing that can disqualify you from being who God calls you, thereby losing your heavenly citizenship.

Remember, Jesus is the Good Shepherd who knows His sheep and His sheep knows Him. Does Christ know you? Do you know Him? The Bible says that by their fruits we shall know them (Matthew 7:16-20). Your fruits are nothing but the manifestation of the kingdom’s lifestyle, a true reflection that you are for Christ. Let your light so shine among men, make the difference!
