In order for the New Jerusalem to come, "His Kingdom" must come; it's a declaration from us [His people] here on earth that we want 'His' Kingdom. His Kingdom is His government, and it's His new world (per se) for us - the new earth spoken of in Revelations.

A kingdom specifies a government. We as Christians have not truly exercised our kingdom rights here on earth, but, oh, we will when revival comes! For the Truth shall be made known and the Truth shall set us free indeed [and shall set others free, too]! We will be free from the carnal natural world to truly live in and walk in the Spirit so that His will be done and His Kingdom comes. There will also be a war to come forth against Christians who withstand the evil one in this day with God's power, because we are going against the [evil one's] grain. We will truly be seen as the disciples of God, but notwithstanding people in judgment [for God is the Just Judge and He will do judgment when the time comes], but we press on in Love [for God is love].

We press on towards the high calling of God in Christ Jesus! We must press in and on, but it's only in Christ do we do this thing, for it is He who gets the glory.

"Seek ye first the Kingdom." We must get our orders from our Lord our God; we seek His government first; we seek our Lord first; we humbly come and bow before our Lord, and we worship Him; He is our all in all; we hear from Him; we spend time with Him; it's not our will be done, but His - we submit ourselves unto Him, and it is He who sends us. We spend time in His lovely presence, soaking Him in, being filled with His Spirit and Love. We don't look at the outside, but inside the heart of God; we look into His eyes and see as He sees.........not condemning. Love is great and truly without expression here on earth for we see with the natural eyes, but we will soon see with the heart of God! His love for us will truly be expressed! The Father's love for us all! Praise the Lord!

"And all these things shall be added unto us." We are not to worry. God will take care of us, just as He takes care of the birds, they have something to eat each day. The birds do not store up nor build barns, but they take what each day brings. And each day as the children of Israel were in the wilderness, God provided for them 'manna'. After quite awhile they got tired of it and complained. We must learn not to complain, but be grateful. We must not get tired of that which God supplies. To our flesh it may seem menial, but there is a reason for it. And even if our flesh begins to arise, God is dealing with something there to bring it out of the way.......repent! God does not want a fleshly people, but a people born of His Spirit and who abides.



I can go on and on, but this is all that I am to share right now. Revival is coming, but not the way as many suspect, just like how the religious thought the Christ [the Messiah] was coming in the way that they thought. The Lord will come suddenly to His House.

God bless you.
