"Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe," Hebrews 12:28 (NIV)
God has promised us a kingdom on earth that is immovable, impregnable, a force without equal. We have access to this kingdom! It is a kingdom that this world cannot see with its fleshly eyes, and desires, but it does exist.
The world wages a war daily trying to demean it's existence. the atheist who is so persistent in his/her pursuit will do their level best to convince you there is no God, as there is no Kingdom. The agnostic too will try, as will a host of others. The bible warns us of such people when it tells us in Matthew 11:12, "And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and violent men seize it by force [as a precious prize--a [a]share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion]." (Amplified)
Be mindful of these forces that try to vie for the terrain of your souls. Be weary of the lion that lurks to wait and captivate your attention. For in you resides a little piece of this Kingdom, but only if you allow His power inside of you to activate the power to resist the forces that try to assault the Kingdom. Stand your guard and be strong because if God is for us.... then who can be against us?
