Complete and Free Access to God's Kingdom
"... This is the rock on which I will put together my church, a church so expansive with energy that not even the gates of hell will be able to keep it out.
And that's not all. You will have complete and free access to God's kingdom, keys to open any and every door: no more barriers between heaven and earth, earth and heaven. A yes on earth is yes in heaven. A no on earth is no in heaven."
- Matthew 16:18-19 (The Message)
Oh Hallelujah, what a promise !!!!!!!
Do you have ANY idea who you are in Christ? Do you have ANY idea of the freedom and power granted and available to you through His wonderful grace and mercy.
We are WAY more than forgiven. We are the church, the Body of Christ, the manifestation of God Himself on earth.
Why, oh why, do we stumble and struggle in darkness and disbelief?
Father in Heaven, Mighty God, Lord of all Creation, open our eyes and hearts and minds to see Your heavenly kingdom. Show us our place in You, God. Help us believe Your incredible, precious, and holy promises.
Make us to walk in Your love and grace and power. Let us manifest Your presence in everything we do. Let Your spirit flow in and through us, Lord. Let us open every door. Let us know You.
Touch us, Jesus. Pour Yourself into us. Let us rise and know You. Let us embrace You. Let us worship and adore You, God. Let us live in You. Let everything we do and say honor You and display Your character. Let all who see us know You, Jesus.
Let us be Your church.
Amen.
