Unshakeable Kingdom
I have good news for you! The world maybe falling apart, but you’re not. You are strong, steady and settled in Christ. Here’s why: you belong to an unending, unstoppable and unshakable kingdom. Check out this scripture:
“Therefore, we must be thankful that we have a KINGDOM THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN. Because we are thankful, we must serve God with fear and awe in a way that pleases Him.” - Hebrews 12:28, GW
The word “kingdom” is the Greek word basilea and it means: ROYAL, RULE & REALM. So, what Paul is saying is that your royal status cannot be changed, your authority cannot be taken from you and you cannot be snatched out of the royal realm you’re in.
What I’m leading up to is this:
1. You are significant.
This is the only conclusion you can come to since your royal status is firm and fixed. Go read Revelation 1:5-6. Here’s the facts: You are the Father’s royal family on earth and you’re a big deal in the eyes of Heaven. 🥹🤩
2. You have nothing to worry about.
If you sincerely want to live a happy and care-free life, you can. But you’ll have to say goodbye to worry. It’s not a good travel partner on this journey called life. The truth is, it’s pointless to worry. I love what Jesus said, “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble” (Matthew 6:34). Mic drop! 😬🫢
3. You can have joy in the midst of life’s challenges.
The apostle James (Jesus’ half brother) said, “My brethren, COUNT IT ALL JOY when you fall into various trials” (James 1:2). In other words, stay upbeat when downbeat things happen. Don’t let life’s challenges get under your skin and get you all bent out of shape. Joy is your super power. Use it! When crazy things occur, shout for joy and loudly declare your victory. Let the devil and his demons know that you cannot be shaken. 🥳🕺🏽
4. Your future is secure.
Let’s be honest. This world can be a scary place. It’s unpredictable, turbulent and always fluctuating. However, the kingdom you are a part of is super steady, safe and unchanging. Your whole life is safeguarded and upheld by the King of glory. In other words, Jesus got you! The world maybe falling apart, but you’re not. 😌😊
