May 1, 2025 IT IS LIKE A MUSTARD SEED
Mark 4:30-32 “And He said, ‘How shall we picture the kingdom of God, or by what parable shall we present it? It is like a mustard seed, which, we sown upon the ground, though it is smaller than all the seeds that are upon the soil, yet when it is sown, grows up and is larger than all the garden plants and forms large branches, so that the birds of the air can rest under its shade.’”
God has a kingdom-and its big, and its real! His kingdom cannot be shaken and no other kingdom can compare to the greatness of His kingdom. His kingdom is ever-lasting. And the good, good news is that when one believes and receives Jesus as Savior, that person is transferred to the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world share nothing in common. As new believers, we likely have a small view or limited understanding regarding the kingdom of God. Some have the view that the kingdom of God is something to be experienced in heaven after we die. As we grow in the faith, hopefully our understanding of the kingdom of God increases and we begin to see how it impacts our life in dramatic ways. If our hearts are turned to the Lord, we will begin to see that His kingdom is greater than we previously understood it to be. So, whatever our view of the kingdom of God is at the present, be assured that there is more to learn and discover about and more to experience in the kingdom of God. Having an understanding of His kingdom impacts how we live this life on planet earth. Let us be kingdom minded even as we are about the necessary routines and necessities of every day life on this earth. Even though we cannot see in a physical way the kingdom of God, it is nonetheless more real than what we see with our eyes. Like we cannot see the wind, but we can see the results and affects of the wind. May we set our sights on what is higher and better-the kingdom of God. God has destined His kingdom to expand fill the whole earth; we are blessed to be apart of demonstrating His kingdom in the here and now.
Daniel 7:27 “And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; His kingdom shall be an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey Him.”
