Being Part of the Kingdom

1“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added. (Matthew 6:33)

Many people go to church and profess to be spiritual; however, many do not possess the kingdom. They do not operate in kingdom principles. The scripture clearly says to seek first the kingdom of God, and then the “things” will be added unto you. How many Bible-believing, church-going, Holy Ghost-filled people do you know living in lack, poor health, poverty and sadness? However, this is contrary to the system that God established in the beginning.

It is vital to develop a kingdom mindset if you want to reign as Christ in the earth. You have to begin to walk in victory and talk in victory. You have to live the kingdom and understand that the kingdom of God is within you. What are you doing with the kingdom that is within you? How are you living? Are you living by kingdom principles or are you living as an earthling? What is important to you, the kingdom or your standard of living?

You must seek first the principles that govern the kingdom of God. Until you find the principles that govern the kingdom of God, you will not see the manifestation of God. God cannot manifest until you get in principle. You are God in principle. But it is important to understand that you are God in principle, not in personality.

ARE YOU SALTY

What does it take to be seasoned? How would one maintain their flavor in the  kingdom? To be seasoned to be salty is to be preserved by our Savior, and forsaking all to gain all through and by following Christ. If we have one foot on the world and  one foot in the church we cannot serve two masters, we will love one and the other  hate, in turn lose our flavor.

If we were once with God and the persecution and trials tore us down to where we lost our focus and sense of path. We have lost our flavor.  And if we follow false doctrine knowing and witnessing the truth, but still continue  on a path that is not truth, and then we have lost our flavor and our way.

In Mathew 5:13 the Lord said, ” Ye are the salt of the earth; but if the salt have lost his saviour, where with shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.”

Master Prophet E. Bernard Jordan believes that when we have made the choice to live a life that directly reflects that message we bring to the kingdom, and living  what we preach, then it is us who will have the salt given to us by God. For to have flavor is to be effective in all we do in the kingdom. To be effective is to yearn to  preserve others in all wisdom, by example of walking in a way that lead others to  Christ. To be patient and bearing to those who lack wisdom and salt of their own. To be doers of the word and not just hearers.

Overcome Anger with God’s Love

We see God’s influence in the world everyday, but we also see the influences of the devil. One of the ways the devil can wield power over your life is to fill your heart with anger. Anger can be in your heart for a number of reasons. You may have had many disappointments in life or suffered from terrible occurrences such as abuse or loss. These negative influences make it easier for the devil to find a way into your heart and mind and keep you from living a life of happiness. The best way to overcome anger is to use God’s love to acquire strength, calm and peace in your heart.

Finding God

So many people associate the term “finding God” as an extreme term used by fundamentalists. However finding God is the simple realization that God is good and true and believing this with all of your heart. Once you are able to find God you will be able to use his love to make you a better person. Spending time with God during daily devotions, through prayer or getting Free Spiritual Readings Online is the first step to finding how his love can free you from anger. However you cannot find God unless you truly believe in his existence as well as his love for you.

Strengthening your Love

Once you find God it will be natural for you to want to strengthen your love for him and others. You will learn day by day how to welcome him deeper and deeper into your heart and live with his words in your mind. You can then use those words as strength when you are faced with anger. You will soon discover strategies to assist you in overcoming your anger and turning to a peaceful and accepting mind set that will help set you free.

Breathing and Serenity

When you have faith in God it will be easier to learn to breathe in to calm yourself and find serenity instead of anger. You will learn how to turn the other cheek and to avoid harsh words even when someone uses them on you. You will discover how your life is improved by using peaceful means to resolve issues instead of anger, shouting and violence. By welcoming God into your heart you will be able to fight temptation from the devil and the desire to lash out in anger.

PROPHECY THROUGH THE SCRIPTURES

Prophecy is done for the service of Christ. Its messages should be aligned with the Scripture and doctrine. The children of God were given the gift of the Scriptures to spread the Good News and we can all grow from there for the glory of God. Ephesians 4:14-16 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and from, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Biblical prophecies are from detailed study that is well organized and thought of in each word. 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Prophetic words from preachers really help a lot for people who are lost in this world. They are the ones who have weak faith and sometimes do not even care of how the world works for them. Men should spread the Good, news based on the teachings of God. The duty of preaching should be something that is done for the love of God and for the faith that we have. If we do not have faith within ourselves, we cannot expect to preach and be followed by the people we are preaching for.

Each word in the biblical preaching matters as the original languages are exact that is based in the Word of God. It values historical, literal and grammar approach to the interpretation.

TAKE IN THE LONG VIEW

Throughout the book of Genesis the Lord makes his covenantal relationship known to several men. God has plans to bless and prosper the families of Abraham and his son Isaac then Isaac’s son Jacob. The Lord does not bring out his plan due to their immense godliness but instead God only seems to ask we would follow God leading. Abraham is promised descendants that would be as many as the stars in the sky. The ironic piece of course is that Abraham had no children at the time of blessing and would do his best to take matters into his own hands rather than trusting God.

Bishop Jordan believes that imagine God leading us in a particular direction and we believe a place to be at the end of this road, maybe not riches, maybe not fame, but BLESSING. As we head off in this direction none of the blessing ever comes. And maybe just tiniest foretaste of the blessing. This is the reality Abraham, Isaac and Jacob live everyday. The Lord is good but maybe not in every way we had dream of.

The Lord intends to bless us like He did with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. While this may be true consider what exactly is being said when we believe we have entered into the kind of relationship the Patriarchs had with God. It is one of the blessing but maybe not in our lifetime. The Lord has promise us many things but have we ever stopped to consider whether the fullness of those could come after our life have pass?

“And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature ans escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.” (2 Peter 1:4)

God does not wish your Life to pass you by

God does not wish for his followers to have life pass them by. God has given you the gift of life and his love in order to see you be happy and successful. Success is different for all of us, but knowing how to find success can be easier if you listen to God’s word with a Bible Prophecy. When you feel unhappy it is because you are missing out on God’s plan for you. True happiness is achieved when you embrace God’s love and find the path he wishes you to follow.

Signs Life is passing you by
For some it is very obvious life is passing them by. They go through life without passion, never achieving anything, never trying anything new and never taking any risks. They do not look for their true love and stay in unhappy relationships. They deal with their children without seeing who they truly are and seeing how much love and joy they have to offer. They work in their jobs without doing more than the bare minimum. They scrape by in school with the minimum grades to pass. All of these are signs that life is passing your by as day after day you are not finding the joy God wishes you to feel and are also not even trying to find it.

Reach out to God
If you find you are unhappy it is important to take a look at your life and see where you can improve. God wants you to reach out to him and use his love to make it easier for you to find joy. God’s love is joy and it will show in everything you do. When you reach out to God and open your heart with complete belief, faith and trust in him you will begin to see how his love can change your life. As you become more in tune with your faith you will find ways to pursue your dreams. A bible prophecy1 will help you see how God’s love is there to make you happier and provide you with all you need to live your life well. Prophecies are not only intended to lay down God’s laws but to guide his followers in living a fulfilling life. God’s message to you will make it easier to follow his path.

A NEED FOR MORE CHILDREN’S MINISTRY

As Bishop Jordan taking a break from working on the website today, he decided to go out on the balcony and people watch. Across from him is a laundry mat for the community where he lives. He heard a loud stereo and it caught his attention, he watched the car pull into the laundry mat and stop.

While the lady was unloading her clothes to be washed, her son was out running all over. The mother went inside and the little boy disappeared somewhere. A few minutes later a little boy came in running back to where his mother was walking out from, he was screaming that another child had hit him.

The mother then seemed very angry with him and began yelling and telling him that he should have hit the other child back. The boy stood there with a frightened look on his face as his mother continues to yell at him, repeating the same thing over and over. Needless to say, this is not the correct advice to give a young child. Then I was led to wonder, how could God have made this situation better? Then the idea came to mind of “Children’s Ministry”.It is has belief that if there were a child present who attended a children’s ministry locally, that child could have stepped in and offered proper guidance, prayer, and a peaceful resolution.

He believe that child could have prayed during the incident and already had the power of God moving within them whenever they stepped in to correct the situation. This would have done more good then we all actually know or are even aware of. These children of today are not always receiving the best of lessons in life. More and more children are pushed to being violent because of the parents and of course their environments as well.

Zoe ministries can make a ton of difference and they should be at every church. Do you know whether your church has a children’s ministry? If not, there are traveling ministries that actually help you set one up at your church and train you to run it. Of course there is more than just setting one up, there is funding, attracting people, having people to work there, etc. It is still a good idea to push when everyday there is another generation being brought up full of hate and facing a lack of guidance and resources! God bless you all.

To know more about God’s purpose for you and the power of prophecy Speak to Bishop Jordan he will guide you in your quest.

THE ABUNDANCE OF GIVING

When we think about coming to church, what aspect do we look forward to the most?

Some of us might say that teaching keeping us coming back each week, some of us because of music and others believers say it might be the deep relationship with others, that they find their churches, a relationship that they cannot cultivate elsewhere. Some others might just appreciate the temporary relief from the pressure of life, work and the world.

Bishop Jordan believes that God’s word clearly teaches us that our giving is actually a direct pipeline to God’s blessing. And in fact there is two simple statements from the Lord ought to make every Christian are eager and thrilled for opportunities to give. If the Bible had nothing else to say about giving, if it was only these two promises from God, it should be still be enough to compel us to line up and give generously, sacrificially and abundantly.

As abundant as His blessing are in our life, and what we give away results in even greater blessing, this concept counterintuitive to our societies mindset, we were encourage to accumulate and save as much as we can. But His word is clear that believers are to avoid the love of money. And this promise from God is consistent with those exhortations.

“NO one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the others; you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”  (Mathew 6:24)

That does not mean we should recklessly give away everything that God’s word clearly advocates wise management of our money and if we were going to store up treasure, we ought to store it in heaven, where no thief is comes near nor does moth destroy. Give generously and count on the Lord to be generous with us.

Seeing the Big Picture

1When God gives you your prophetic destiny, it doesn’t fulfill itself overnight. He reveals these to us according to His perfect timing. He is described to reveal chapters of our life story or a particular area of activity. God can speak about our ultimate ministry, but he will not tell about the process of the trials and the ministries that He will have, for the meantime.

Joseph experienced this. He had prophetic dreams; however, when he revealed these dreams to his brothers, they did not receive it well. The personal prophecy was that he would rule over his brothers.

However, Joseph did not foresee that he would be sold into slavery. God did not tell him the problems he will have with Potiphar’s wife, or that he would spend a significant period of time in prison. It would take a number of years to pass by before Joseph is able to see the bigger picture that God had intended for His life. The same is true for Abraham, David, and many others in the story.

Finding yourself through Prophecy

1Amidst all the influences, both good and bad, in the world, it is sometimes difficult to know who you really are. Magazines tell people that they must look and act a certain way in order to be considered ‘beautiful’ while television exposes us to the norms and biases that we must accept in order to fit in. Not to mention advertisements that tell you what your lifestyle must include. In the world today there is so much irresponsibly passed judgment and therefore there is also great pressure for citizens to heed to a certain image.

You might find yourself slowly being dragged away from the things you actually love doing or the values that you keep sacred. It is important in this day and age that you know who are; otherwise you will simply be influenced by everything you come across.

Through the Power of Prophecy you can get a clearer picture of the person that God wants you to be. You have unique traits and talents that are your own. Allow a Personal Prophecy to show you how to make use of them. Prophecy can facilitate your journey into yourself and your vision of your potential. A Personal Prophecy is specific to your situation. Through the words of a Prophet you can learn how the Word of God applies to your life today.

“Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.” (Matthew 16:24-25, NIV) CLICK HERE!

Taking the Road Less Taken

Integrity is a word that comes from a word that means uprightness. It is not appreciated most of the time and not even rewarded. If you do the right thing just to be rewarded, it will not be considered integrity because integrity is doing the right thing even if no one is looking and without anyone knowing it because it’s the right thing to do.

Mark 8:32-36

He spoke to them openly. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him. 33 But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.” 34 He called the multitude to himself with his disciples, and said to them, “Whoever want to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it. 36 For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?

In today’s time, people often forget the presence of God and is largely been left behind from our lives. Therefore, integrity is part of our moral obligation to the society if we recognize that we are accountable to God. The power of prophecy will provide people to be guided with the teachings of the Lord. Prophetic Insights will awaken faith in each and every one of us and will build better relationship with God.

Doing the right thing only when you expect something in return makes a Pavlovian  response but if we are motivated to have integrity, we do what is right because our conscience tells us to. the way to integrity is really doing something that honors God.

Keeping the Connection

John 15: 6-10

6 If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you. 8 “In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and remain in his love.

Have you ever wondered if you have an inside connection with God? Jesus faced the cross and told His disciples, “If you remain in me, and my Words remain in you, ask whatever you wish and it will be given to you.” This is a connection with God that we should always honor and take care of. Have we asked ourselves why we the Lord should honor our prayers? Is it only because we are a nice person? We are better than others? No, there is no reason at all. We are all children of God and we have been adopted to His family as a result of faith in Him. Scriptures tells us this very clearly.

Galatians 4:3-7

So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world. 4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law, 5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of children. 6 And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!” 7 So you are no longer a bond servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

We should all experience the prophecy regarding this that will be given to us by Bishop Bernard Jordan so that we can continue to live life that is perfect in God’s eyes and that we can be the children that God wants us to be.
