grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Luke 17:20-21
What a hope-producing, victorious, encouraging,
expectant, propitious, golden divine, and Holy
roseate promise, that forever blooms within every
Cross-bought believer. The kingdom of God is within you.
Ponder on this and roses of halleluiah’s will lavishly bloom
in your heart. The Kingdom of God is within you, ponder this.
The Kingdom of God is with you, rejoice in this. The Kingdom
of God is within you, rest in this. The Kingdom of God is
within you, proclaim this gospel reality. Say it with me
and rejoice, the kingdom of God is within you. Repeat
it over and over again, The Kingdom of God is within you.
There is no greater blessing or honor than this fragrant
doctrinal rose! The Kingdom of God is within us. May this
be what we humbly, adoringly, worshipfully, gratefully, and
victoriously give praise to our Savior as we joyfully,
meditate on this all day long! Amen, Amen, and Amen!
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF LORDS.
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: and they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Revelation 22:1-5 (KJV)
The exquisite handwork of our blessed,
precious, and majestic Savior is everywhere.
Yet on this particular day the sky was a light
blue topaz as azure than I had ever seen.
I wonder if clouds are but our Savior’s sculptures
in the sky. Or perhaps my heart longs for
Christ return to set the world aright where
sin is no more and there will be no need
of the Sun for Christ will be our light
forever and forever more. As I continued
to look to the dazzling light blue of the Heavens,
the clouds, all of them, were raised like
a Holy and divine throne. And I smiled
to myself for Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
open doors of wonder as far as the eye
can see to show all the beauty of His
Salvation and the mightiness of His glorious
power to all who will but see, repent, and receive.
Oh that all could see with redeemed eyes
of faith and imagination the wonders
that our Triune God reveals to them that
love Jesus Christ above everything!
The exquisite handwork of our blessed,
precious, and majestic Savior is everywhere.
Look and see for the beauty of our Sovereign
King is indeed throughout all the earth! Look and see!
