The Kingdom Of God Is Among You

My dear friends,

       The kingdom of  Yahweh is not only a future realtiy it is here today, now. The kingdom of Yahweh is among us. Let's look at Luke 17:20 Being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, he answered them, "The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; 21 nor will they say, `Lo, here it is!' or `There!' for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you." 22 And he said to the disciples, "The days are coming when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and you will not see it. 23 And they will say to you, `Lo, there!' or `Lo, here!' Do not go, do not follow them. 24 For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of man be in his day. 25 But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

The Jews were waiting for a physical sign of a kingdom to come. Yahshua told them the kingdom was already among them.The Pharisees did not believe that the Messiah had come and Yahshua was telling them it is here already and will be again.

Yahshua tells the Pharisees the Day of the Lord will be when lightning appears in the darkened sky, we won't need a special sign to announce HIS coming. In like manner, when "the son of Man comes" it will be as clear as the lightning in the heavens. No special sign will be needed to announce his imminent appearance. Yahshua surprised the Jews of his time by announcing that God's kingdom was already present among them in HIS very person — the Son of God sent from the Father to redeem the world from sin. Yahshua promises to bring the kingdom of God to all who recognize in him the power and glory of the Father in heaven. Amen!

The kingdom comes without observation. Yahweh is Spirit. The kingdom comes without observation because it is Spiritual. It dwells among believers.

My friends, we are told by Yahhsua in Matthew 6:3333But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. The kingdom is within you, it comes without observation. It is Spiritual.

In HIM with love,
Cassie
