You do realise don’t you, that signs and wonders are not always positive. Sometimes God has to scare you into the Kingdom.
The manifestation of the power of God is proof that the Kingdom of God is present because God is present. That’s possible because Holy Spirit is now present.
There is an irony to the fact Jesus told us to seek first the Kingdom of God, but in reality it is the last thing we seek.
The time in between these two appearances is the time for us to be extending His Kingdom just as He commanded us to do.
Christ's Kingdom is extended ONLY THRU HIS CHURCH-the only organisation he gave his authority & keys of the kingdom to!
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power. (1 Cor 4:20)
The whole earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it. He doesn't have to protect the borders of His Kingdom.
Are you going to restore the Kingdom of Israel? You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you and you will be my witnesses . . . to the ends of the earth. (Acts 1:6-8)
Every time you pass a test, you increase in value to the Kingdom.
In fact, we don't even have to ask for them, they're automatically given to us when we put God's kingdom ahead of our own.
