Luke 17:20-21 (KJV)
20 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:
21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Somewhere inside us we are connected to God’s Kingdom. It is not until His nature becomes our nature, His mind becomes our mind, His heart becomes our heart, and His essence is one with... ours that His Kingdom appears.
It will not be found in lands and buildings, polities designed by humans, or peace maintained by human control. There is only one true and everlasting King, only one and true everlasting Father, only one eternal Spirit of truth, and only one throne sets in the midst.
This throne surrounds itself with a midst that can set inside of you and me. If there were any other word to describe it, it would be home. It is where Daddy is, where our one Brother is, and where our Connector, teacher, and confidant dwell.
Do not have to die to get there, do not have to become anymore righteous than I am in Christ Jesus to get there, and I do have to pass through any gate or door this world provides to get there. I just close my eyes in faith, journey within, rest in Daddy’s Love and simply know this is Home.
