As the people of God assemble today, may they
remember and thankfully recount to one another
the good things the Lord has done.
“I will always thank God for what he has done;
I will praise his good name when his people meet.”
(Ps.52:9, CEV)

The reason John and Charles Wesley and their
movement were called “The Methodists” is
because of their method: “Prayer and Bible
reading lead to sanctification”. Now that’s
a great method.

We must let go of theology that has been formed from human experience and man’s reasoning and look to the Word of God that shows us the 
limitless God Whose Kingdom comes and comes and comes (Isa.9:7). That Kingdom comes right through time, right on through opposition, right through the shouts of dissenting mobs and even through walls (Lk.24:36). The Bible and worship bring us a picture of God and His Kingdom that is a great deal larger than the picture that the poverty-of-the-human-experience paints. In Acts 12:7-10, an angel walked Peter out of chains and prison like they were going for a stroll in the park. In Jn.2, Jesus turned plain water into the best wine that the host had tasted. The chemical composition of the water was so changed that it became wine. In His human body, that had typical density, Jesus defied gravity and the density of water and walked atop it with ease. Human reasoning tried sorely to deny the disciples of the extraordinary of God when it reasoned that what the disciples saw was only a ghost (Matt.14:26). Our King and His authority and His purposes will not be so easily dismissed. Peter joined Jesus and also walked on water (Matt.14:29). Therefore, the sons of the Kingdom are candidates to participate in what their King has set up.

We are not praying for just “any” kingdom to come nor for “a” kingdom to come but for “THY” Kingdom to come (Matt.6:10). To have a Kingdom mentality, it is a necessity to know the “THY” of that unshakeable Kingdom (Heb.12:28). I heard a preacher say that he was taken up to heaven and an angel gave him a tour. After awhile they walked up to a room from which was shining a great brightness. He looked in and saw a great, bright Being on a throne. Above the Being were angels circling the throne. With each revolution around the throne they would begin shouting and praising all over again. The man asked the angel why they did that. The angel said that those angels had been circling the throne like that forever and that each time they made a new revolution around the throne they would see some aspect of God that they had not ever seen before and it would start them praising all over again. He is the God of the wisdom that has “innumerable aspects and infinite variety” (Eph.3:10). We have not seen everything.

The truth of Jesus be supreme above
every belief, philosophy and creed.
“[ Beware of Requirements Invented by Humans ] Be
careful not to let anyone rob you of this faith through
a shallow and misleading philosophy. Such a person
follows human traditions and the world’s way of doing
things rather than following Christ.” (Col.2:8, GW)
Marty brings an encouraging word in this 2 min. audio.

The church is not the Kingdom of God but a model and stewarding entity within the Kingdom. The purpose of the church in the Kingdom of God: “[The purpose is] that through the church the complicated, many-sided wisdom of God in all its infinite variety and innumerable aspects might now be made known…” (Eph.3:10, Amp). That wisdom is made known through redemptive acts of power (Lk.10:9;11:20;1Cor.2:4;4:20; 1Thess.1:5). That redemptive wisdom is the foundation and body of our thinking and mindsets when we have gotten it out of the Word of God and into our hearts and minds and decisions and actions. Theology formed from the poverty of human experience leaves minds severely limited and disoriented with no true compass. We must adjust our focus from matters and things that people say are impossible to focusing on Him Whose Kingdom, Whose rule and authority, comes in the moment and brings with it the power and resources of heaven. “Poverty” basically means “insufficiency” and the human experience is far too insufficient to form anything to stand on, let alone anything that will bring hope or any viable form of solution.

As the people of God assemble today, may they come to be in
harmony with each other and endure as they are encouraged by
the example of Christ Jesus being taught and ministered in their midst.
“May God, who gives you this endurance and encouragement, allow
you to live in harmony with each other by following the example of
Christ Jesus. Then, having the same goal, you will praise the God
and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Rom.15:5-6, GW)”
It’s more than knowing what to do – it’s doing it.
Prescriptions and plans have no value until they
are put into action.
“Commit your actions to the Lord, and your
plans will succeed.” (Prov.16:3, NLT)

Looking in the Bible and looking at the decisions and actions of its victorious characters, it is obvious that the 
possibility exists for us to have a Kingdom mentality and act victoriously out of that mentality regardless of the pressure of overwhelming circumstances and insurmountable opposition. When we pray “Thy Kingdom come” we are praying: Thy will come, Thy authority come, Thy power come, Thy rule come, Thy order come, Thy sovereign activity come, Thy heavenly culture come (cf.”Kingdom of heaven; as it is in heaven”; also Acts17:6). If we truly pray “Thy Kingdom come” we will not be of the mentality that dismisses the extraordinary of God Who is able to “do the undoable, change the unchangeable and provide the impossible”. If we are of a Kingdom mentality when it comes time to break loaves and fishes, we will not be thinking, “Oh, swell, now I will simply have two pieces of fish and two pieces of bread.” Rather we will be set up for the extraordinary of God since we know that, in our lifetime, we have only seen a fraction of the many-layered, many-sided wisdom (Eph.3:10) of God that can feed 5,000 with a sack lunch (Jn.6:9).
