Pressing Into The Kingdom Is A Matter Of Obedience.
Scripture: Luke 16:14-16
Luke 16:14-16 says, “Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these
things, and they derided Him. And He said to them, ‘You are those who justify yourselves
before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an
abomination in the sight of God. ‘The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time
the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it.” The Kingdom of
God is here!
The Holy Spirit created a prayer language on the inside of him that tapped into the
mind of Christ and the infinite wisdom of Almighty God for his life! It’s beyond my
natural understanding how that supernatural process works. But I guarantee you, I will
use what He has given me!
Heavenly Father has promised this, and I can pass it on to you: If you will faithfully
continue to get to know God by His Spirit — and an important part of that process is
praying in other tongues — then five years from now, you will not be the same. You
won’t look back over the years and lament that every day was the same, one month
just like the next, until three and then four years slipped by, and you ended up just as
defeated and unchanged as you were at the beginning of that time period. No, if you
will pursue God by the Spirit, then at the end of five years, you will be able to look
back and see that you have experienced spiritual growth. You have changed for the
better. You are getting to know Jesus Himself as the Holy Spirit reveals Him to you.
And you are well on your way to fulfilling your divine call as it unfolds before you!
We pray in tongues until the wisdom comes and the direction comes about what to do.
Pressing into the Kingdom is a matter of obedience. It is about connecting with the Lord
through the Holy Spirit until we are shown what to do! We pray in the Spirit until His light
and His leadership comes. By doing this we can represent Him and declare what He wants us
to do.
