Do you want the Kingdom?

Luke 12:32-34

verse 32 "Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom ..."

(Cool thought - God wants to give us the KINGDOM!...wonder what the next verse says...hmmm?)

verse 33-34 "Sell your possessions, and give to the needy. Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."

You still sure you want the kingdom?

Could you say along with the disciples "we have left all to follow You."-mk 10:28?

I'm not sure about you but I'm tired of hearing this watered down...

Matthew 13:44 "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then IN HIS JOY he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field."

Not even a hard decision when compared to gaining Jesus!

  1. How desperately I long to live this out...it's so easy to think in America I can't completely do it. I pray the Lord will show us all very clearly how to forsake all and follow Him. It's obviously a heart issue...Holy Spirit we need you!
