TOPIC: Heirs Of His Kingdom (Rhapsody of Realities 6 December 2023)
…Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God , And saying , The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand…(Mark 1:14-15).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today MESSAGE:
The Lord Jesus brought and offered the Kingdom to the Jews; He preached to them saying, “ The kingdom of God is at hand” ( Matthew 3:2 ;Matthew 4: 17 ;Mark 1: 14 – 15 ; Luke 10:9) .
However, they rejected His message and turned down His offer of the kingdom. As a result, He declared to them, “Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce it’s fruit” (Matthew 21:43 NIV).

The kingdom was offered, and all those who accepted its message received eternal life. Christians are those who have accepted the message of the kingdom, received eternal life into their spirits, and are now members- citizens and heirs of that kingdom.
No wonder the Bible tells us in Romans 8:16 -17 (NKJV), “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are the children of God, and if children, then heirs – heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him , that we may also be glorified together.”
Despite living in a world filled with wickedness and evil, He has granted us this extraordinary privilege to be heirs of His kingdom. We’re not of this world. We don’t belong in Satan’s realm; we’re not under Satan’s jurisdiction or authority.
The Bible says in Colossians 1:13 that God has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of His Love -son. Blessed be God! Also, He’s made us kings and priests in His glorious Kingdom to produce fruits of the Kingdom- fruits of righteousness and eternal life.
We’re the ones Peter referred to when he said, “ But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people ; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who had called you out of darkness into his marvelous light” (1 Peter 2:9).Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for making me an heir of your glorious Kingdom. I recognize that I have received eternal life and have become a citizen and member of this Kingdom; therefore, I’m alienated from the depravities, corruption and decadence in this present world. I’m enthroned with you, far above principalities and powers, in Jesus ‘Name. Amen

Romans 8: 16-17 AMPC; 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Ephesians 1:18-21; 18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
