How to Build Up God's Kingdomنموونە

The Kingdom that starts with love

God’s Kingdom is not a set of moral principles and not an ideology. Its essence is in the relationships with the King, Jesus Christ. We can never understand what the Kingdom is until we know His Heart. For God’s Kingdom has a face, and it’s the face of Jesus.

Jesus came not to create a new value system or moral code. He came to restore the relationships between God and people that were ruined by sin. His reign is based not on fear or obligations, but on love. Therefore, to live in the Kingdom means to be alongside the King, listen to Him, trust Him, feel His heart, and know His voice.

When Jesus becomes the center of our lives, everything around us changes. Our actions, our decisions, and even ethics are not an attempt to earn His affection, but a response to His love. We do not just “stick to the rules” but live in relationships.

God’s Kingdom grows where people know not only Jesus’s principles, but Jesus Himself. It reveals itself not through our achievements but through affinities with the One Who already reigns.

Questions to ask yourself:

• Are my relationships with Jesus deeper than my knowledge of Him?
• How can I today take one step closer to the King and not just to “something right”?

Prayer:

Jesus, my King, I want to know You and not merely serve You. Please, teach me to live alongside You, hear Your voice, and build up a Kingdom that grows from the relationship with You.
