Let The Kingdom Of God Come Upon Us And Through Us

Topical Messages

For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit (‭Romans‬ ‭14‬:‭17‬ NIV) While we wait upon the second coming of our Lord, God does not want us to stare blankly ahead of time and feel powerless and helpless today. Instead, Lord calls us to live in His kingdom today. This kingdom is not about eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. When one is living in the will of God now (righteousness), kingdom is in his midst and he will see the leading of God in ways he can never imagine. In all our relationships, career, finance and family living, do we enjoy this kingdom today in the most normal and routine daily lives? If we cannot, we need to go into deep prayers to confirm the values of this unseen treasure. We will never feel secured if we are not God-reliant and put all our conditions for the kingdom purpose.

Battling Inferiority, Indifference, Lack of Zeal

In this fast-paced society and highly demanding era, we are trapped in a system, both knowingly and unknowingly. What is this system? At first thoughts, this system seems to sound like laws and institutions. Yet if we inquire further, this system is in fact a godless and man-centric mindset, which very quickly develops into a disbelieving culture. As believers of God, we can be easily immobilized by such a systemic culture. We involuntarily subscribe to a certain way of thinking in this system of ours, be it with regards to merits, successes, achievements, problem-solving skills, etc. Such a system hurts the human soul and makes it grow cold. Consider, what happens to the fallouts of this system? They are constantly battling with inferiority (about self), indifference (about life), and lack of zeal (to do what ought to be done). May God open our eyes to this reality so that we can be sensitive to the needs of this era, and with that, relate the Gospel powerfully and relevantly.
