Livingin Different Kingdoms

Living in Different Kingdoms Beauty … corrupted Goodness … and wickedness Help … and temptation

Living in Different Kingdoms Jesus acknowledged that the devil had a (limited) authority on this earth ( when He was tempted; “ the prince of this world ” ) He knew himself the devil ’ s attempted seduction one of the ways He healed was to set people free from evil spirits He said that this power was in principle defeated The kingdom of this world

Living in Different Kingdoms X A geographical area?God’s sovereign rule Jesus ’ Kingdom

Living in Different Kingdoms  God’s sovereign rule HAS come in Jesus  This sovereign rule has drawn close - and challenges us to respond by turning from our wrong direction  This sovereign rule is invaluable, invisible and highly influential  This sovereign rule is at present incomplete, but WILL be fulfilled  We pray for this sovereign rule to be extended so that (like in heaven) it is known everywhere Jesus ’ Kingdom

Living in Different Kingdoms God’s Kingdom is now, is near, is not yet, and is yet to come! Jesus ’ Kingdom

Living in Different Kingdoms Jesus ’ Kingdom

Living in Different Kingdoms Jesus announces, demonstrates, inaugurates and preaches the Kingdom The “in-between” time … during which the Kingdom continues to “break through” Jesus returns, and the Kingdom is at last complete Jesus ’ Kingdom

Living in Different Kingdoms The supernatural Kingdom of God that Jesus brought Our physical world, with all its observed laws and patterns Healing! Miracle! Insight! Jesus ’ Kingdom

Living in Different Kingdoms Jesus ’ Kingdom When God’s sovereign rule was perfectly present in Jesus, “breakthroughs” were guaranteed In the “in-between” time, with the Kingdom infiltrating a broken world, “breakthroughs” are anticipated and pursued – but NOT GUARANTEED When Jesus returns, and God’s rule is finally fulfilled, there will be no more evil or suffering to be overcome

Living in Different Kingdoms Jesus ’ Kingdom Gifts of the Holy Spirit are forms of Kingdom breakthrough

Living in Different Kingdoms Healing prayer initiated at God ’ s command … in the power of the Holy Spirit can be helped by environment … or hindered (that happened for Jesus) God has His own priorities there are mysteries about healing

Living in Different Kingdoms Prayer & answers prayer in the name of Jesus = His authority  what He wants this means we ask for what God desires for us the Holy Spirit helps us pray no such thing as “ unanswered prayer ” – but answer may be “ no ” or “ wait ” !

Living in Different Kingdoms Recognise your predicament Recognise God ’ s answer in Jesus Accept His solution Receive the Holy Spirit Live relating to God
