for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Christ’s death and resurrection brought the Kingdom of God to earth, to those who are willing to receive it....That those that are willing to, might by experience, experience it....

The Kingdom of God, as long as we live in these bodies, is not an outward thing....But this righteousness, peace, joy are to be our daily portion as proof of the manifestation of the Kingdom.... They are ours for the asking, the seeking, the knocking....

Doing the will of God is that that brings this Kingdom of God to us by experience...For by experience are we to learn all things...It is tasting the realities of the truths put forth in scripture that causes an increase of the experience of the Kingdom of God in us...

This righteousness, peace, joy which is to be manifested in us by experience, is to be manifested by the Holy Spirit sent from God to live in us, which if we are His, is an accomplished task.....

If we don’t outwardly walk as He walked, this Kingdom that is to be our experience in this life, will only be tasted and experienced to the degree we walk as He walked...

So the question can be asked how do we walk as He walked?....

By Christ taking on human form He proves to us the human body can be made to walk in righteousness....So than it is a matter of who’s in charge and living in this body... Since we have life and can not change our life of our own, this change or exchange of life must be done for us by another... Faith in God’s promises, faith in God’s love and provision for each and every one of us...

This heart’s desire that calls us towards God is the Kingdom of God in us calling us to Himself...For all our transactions with God happen inwardly, in the heart...It is here that the Kingdom of God is to be revealed....This inner relationship between God and us...This is the building of the Kingdom of God in us... This inner relationship we have with our Creator....For we are His creation, we did not create ourselves, we found ourselves having consciousness, found ourselves possessing life, by nothing we ourselves did to achieve it...Now it is all a question of choice, do we want an unrighteous or righteous life...Both are set before us....The Kingdom of God and the other, all that is not the Kingdom of God is the other...Those that have chosen Him, are His, and this Kingdom has been born into them, now it’s a matter of growing into this Kingdom of God come to life in us..

Be blessed in the growing of it in us...
