*Shalom church*
This is our teaching today: Sunday 28/03/2021
*THE KINGDOM LIFE DEMANDS*
Jesus brought God's Kingdom to us, but how does one experience the life of the Kingdom. What demands does the God's Kingdom lay on us? How does one find the indwelling of God's Spirit imparting the life of the future?
*1) The Kingdom of God demands decision.*
a) _Resolute decision:_ you must be serious with God. Luke:9.57,58
b) _immediate urgent decision:_ irrevocable clean-cut decision. Luke 9:59,60
c) _radical decision:_ to strive with intense effort, an enthusiastic response. Matt 11.12/Luke 16:17; Mark 9:47; Luke 13:24.
d) _costly decision:_ taking your own cross, and denying yourself. Matt 10:38; Luke 9:23
*2) The Kingdom of God demands its righteous.*
The righteous required for entrance into the future realm of God's Kingdom is the righteous which results from God's reign in our lives. Matt 5:20.
The Holy Spirit creates new life. You will experience a real and evident measure of the righteous of God's Kingdom in this evil age. The righteous of the Kingdom is a manifestation of the life of the Kingdom.
```You are blessed in Jesus name```

GOD WILL MAKE A WAY
Isaiah 43:16,19
¶He will make a way where seems to be no way. In the toughest of situations, this seems to be God’s specialty. God has it all figured out. So we don’t have to worry.
~He’s working on our behalf even when we can’t see it all. He has a plan and purpose in whatever we walk through. He can cut a clear pathway through anything.
~And in seemingly hopeless situations where we can’t see any way out, God’s power has the opportunity to shine the greatest. It’s in those times when we come to the end of ourselves, where we know we can’t depend on our own abilities, on anything we have, or anyone we know, but instead are reminded that we are totally and completely reliant on Him - it’s those times that are the most powerful of all.
~He can make a way through the wilderness and cause streams to rise up, bringing refreshing even in the desert times. He can split the sea, move mountains, or any barrier before us, and allow us to walk through on dry ground.
¶you need to believe God is working behind the scene and trust him to make a way for you even when you feel like giving up, even when it seems like there is no point in holding on to the hope. Don't give up, because God is working everything together for your good. (Rom8:28,31)
¶according to the scripture, God will go before and make the crooked places straight, He will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert (Isaiah 40:4,5).
```Let us fix our eyes on Jesus and not on the circumstances, believing God for the impossible - and possible shall be reality.```
¶1cor10:13 _God will also provide a way out so that you can endure it._
God specialises in showing His power in hopeless situations. Israel was in just such a place when God parted sea before them. Daniel was protected in lion's den, Paul and Silas were delivered from prison. He is the God of miracles. He never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. Amen
