God & His Kingdom Family

Ephesians 2:19

God has a household/family. His family is part of His Kingdom.
The kingdom of God has an Earthly presence and a heavenly and spiritual presence.
Ephesians 3:15
We are a family in God's kingdom.

The scriptures show us God's family is in heaven and also on Earth.
At the end of age, the heavenly family and the earthly family will come together as one.
Revelation 21:1-3
We all have different and unique personalities and assignments in this family but we are all bound by love.
Love is that great quality and nature those in God's family and kingdom have.
John 15:12

The Holy Spirit is part of this family.
Jesus Christ is part of this family.
Jehovah (the Father) is part of this family.
Angels are part of this kingdom family and that's why angels are called sons of God.
Job 2:1, Genesis 6:2
Whether winged angels or angels without wings, they are sons of God.
Whether it's cherubims, seraphims or thrones (also called the 24 elders), they are part of God's family.
Revelation 4:4
If you are saved, if you have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and saviour you are a part of this royal kingdom and family.
1 Peter 2:9

The presence of this glorious family will always be with you.
The presence of our heavenly family is strongest among us when we assemble together to worship (often called church).
Hebrews 12:22
Jesus is part of this family, even when He was on earth.
That's why He enjoyed fellowship with personalities from the dimension of God's kingdom and family. Eg. Moses and Elijah on the mount of transfiguration, and angels after fasting.

In God's family we are royalty.
Your identity is rooted in the kingdom of God, get to know this family!
Revelation 5:10

Benefits of being part of God's family:
In God's family we are protected. Psalm 91:11
In God's family we are armed. Ephesians 6:10
In God's family we look out for one another. 1 John 3:17
In God's family we enjoy favour. Proverbs 8:35
In God's family, there are ranks. Jude 1:9, Ephesians 6:1, Ephesians 4:11
In God's family there is respect. Philippians 2:3
The respect comes because there is ranks and hierarchy in God's kingdom household.
We enjoy mercy in this family. Ephesians 2:4,5
In God's family we are loved. 1 John 4:7-8

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...

Healing For Your Soul Wounds!

Malachi 4:2 Your soul is a vital part of your life. Your soul is part of who you are. Your soul needs to function well for things to go well with you. Your prosperity is linked to your soul. 3 John 2 Your soul is the decision making center of your life. God cares about the state of your soul.

When your soul is wounded As our natural bodies can be affected, so can our souls. As we can have physical wounds and sores caused b...
