KINGDOM OF GOD

Matthew 6:9–13 and Luke 11, “ Then He was praying in a certain place; and when He stopped, one of His disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray, [just] as John taught his disciples. And He said to them, When you pray, say: Our Father Who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come. Your will be done [held holy and revered] on earth as it is in heaven.   Ephesians 3:9-10  and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; 10 to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, 

There are dimensions of God’s plan so profound that even the powers of heaven did not fully grasp them until they began to unfold through Messiah. Paul writes in Ephesians 3:9–10 that the mystery hidden through the ages has now been revealed “so that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places.” What was concealed for generations is now being unveiled before heaven itself.

The Greek word for “manifold” is polupoikilos — multifaceted, many-colored, infinitely layered. Paul is describing a wisdom so vast that it cannot be understood from one angle alone. Even the principalities and powers had not anticipated the fullness of what God intended to do through the cross. They understood power. They understood judgment. But they did not foresee a Kingdom where Jew and Gentile would be united into one new man through Yeshua (Jesus), revealing the glory of God through reconciliation.

This was the mystery hidden through the ages. Not hidden because God forgot it, but because He reserved its unveiling for the appointed time. Through Yeshua, what had been concealed in shadow was brought into light. The restoration of the nations was never an afterthought — it was woven into the covenant from the beginning. God told Abraham, “In you all nations shall be blessed.” The one new man was always inside the promise.

What makes this even more astonishing is that heaven itself is watching the unfolding of this plan. The reconciled people of God become a testimony not only to the earth, but to the unseen realm. Unity itself becomes a proclamation of divine wisdom. The principalities and powers witness the greatness of a God who takes divided humanity and forms one people under one King.  This means the one new man is not a side doctrine — it is central to God’s eternal purpose. The Kingdom is revealing something that all creation is watching unfold: the wisdom, mercy, and glory of God expressed through a reconciled people.

What God is building in this hour is bigger than denomination, ethnicity, or tradition — it is the unveiling of His eternal plan. Even the powers of heaven stand in awe of what He is revealing through Yeshua. So do not treat lightly what God calls holy. Every act of reconciliation, every step toward unity, every barrier torn down in the name of Yeshua becomes a testimony to heaven itself. You are part of a mystery generations longed to see and angels strain to understand. The Kingdom is not merely saving individuals — it is unveiling the wisdom of God through a people made one under the reign of the King.  George Baltimore,   <worthybrief@worthynetwork.com&gt;

“Your kingdom come. Your will be done [held holy and revered] on earth as it is in heaven.”

Each night I go to sleep I turn on a CD on the New Testament and really listen to what is being taught.  I was in Romans again last night and the Holy Spirit made parts of it really come alive as being more than words.  Paul in Rom.7 shared with us about the battle we have with our carnal nature and in Chapter 8-10 he tell us of how to have the needed victory through faith.  I was brought up in church to think it was sort of optional.  But in Rom.10:3 I fined, “ For being ignorant of the righteousness that God ascribes [which makes one acceptable to Him in word, thought, and deed] and seeking to establish a righteousness (a means of salvation) of their own, they did not obey or submit themselves to God’s righteousness.”   So for the many years that I thought I was a Christian I was only like the other members of my church, I had put together and modified, a comfortable, self righteousness but was really ignorant of what God require as righteous.  God really expects us to use what Jesus gave us to become in HIS image and likeness, Gen. 1:26, that is the game plan.

Kathryn Kuhlman felt that there were 7 Barriers to preventing us from experiencing the Power of the Kingdom of God.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7d-8Jz1zkiw/

1.    Lack of total Surrender to Jesus as Lord.
2.    Ignorance of what Jesus gave us.
3.    Lack of Unity.
4.    Unforgiveness.
5.    Lack of deep prayer.
6.    Complacency, (Being Comfortable.)
7.    Lack of obedience.

We seem to be getting very close to the end of the age of the Gentiles.  The Euphrates river is drying up.  The birthpains of Matt.24 are getting more intense.   Last night I as coughing so bad I thought it could be the end of my life.  But then, I switched from war news on my screen to intense Worship Music did a few more things, settled into the peace of the Lord and it all packed up and went away.  Not totally well today but at about 70% instead of 0.  And breathing through my nose again.  So listen to the Kathryn Kuhlman Video and give yourself a grade on each of the 7 issues.  We need to find again the balance of Love, Holiness and Power that Jesus left for us to use to help souls find Him.  There is much that needs attention in our world.  We need to experience the flow of the Power of God in our lives to experience HIS Kingdom here now.  1 John 4:16-17,   “And we know (understand, recognize, are conscious of, by observation and by experience) and believe (adhere to and put faith in and rely on) the love God cherishes for us. God is love, and he who dwells and continues in love dwells and continues in God, and God dwells and continues in him. In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], because as He is, so are we in this world.
