Kingdom of Heaven.

                                      What is it?

According to Romans 14:17b The Kingdom of God is Righteousness, Peace, and Joy in Holy Spirit!

The next verse 14:18 explains, for he who in this way serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by men.

This is wonderful for God to make it so easy, righteousness is a gift we receive when we receive Jesus as our savior. Peace and Joy are gifts of Holy Spirit and Holy Spirit is given as a gift when we receive Jesus as our Lord and Savior.

The next step is reigning in life.

Romans 5:17b explains those who receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.

A thought to ponder!

This is not something I have thought about or even seen in the 40 years I have studied the Bible. Does anyone have ideas about this?

I will end with I Peter 2:24 and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you (we) were healed.

It has taken me many years to learn how to walk in the righteousness of God in Jesus!

It is a superpower.

As I learn to walk in the righteousness of God in my daily life, the bullying  that used to plague my life quit affecting me. All the words that made me cower all my life, start to slide off my back like water off a ducks back.

What are your stories of walking in the righteousness of God in Jesus?

Has anyone noticed standing taller and being nicer when walking in the righteousness of God?

God is so very Good!
