#2085 – Step Up

Good morning people who know they are loved and accepted

Luke 17:20-21 (NKJV) Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, ‘See here!or ‘See there!For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.”

I love this passage of Scripture! How can it be that Almighty God would trust us enough to give us the full measure of Who the Holy Spirit is; the very power of God? I don’t know, but He did!

God has invited us to be His royal delegates on the earth. We need a revelation that as we walk in our God-given authority, this is how the kingdom of God comes to earth; this is how God’s will is done on earth as it is done in heaven.

It’s time for the royal sons and daughters of Almighty God to see themselves as He does: completely loved and completely accepted. It’s from this place that we dare to step out and to step up. You see, we don’t exercise spiritual authority to be loved and accepted, but because we are loved and accepted.

You might be saying, “I can’t Steve, I’m just…” I love you enough today to challenge your thinking. If you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour and you are choosing to walk in step with the Spirit of God, you are His delegated authority on earth and you have the right and the responsibility to rule on His behalf. There are some enemies that need to be subdued and some freedom that needs to come to those God created – you and I walking in our God-given kingdom authority is essential for this to happen.

It’s time to step up on behalf of the King.
