“for the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.”
Romans 14:17-18 KJV
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of rules about food and drink, but is in the realm of the Holy Spirit, filled with righteousness, peace, and joy. Serving the Anointed One by walking in these kingdom realities pleases God and earns the respect of others. The Kingdom of God is entered into by the Holy Spirit, and not by observing feasts and ritual meals. We must be born of the Spirit in order to enter into God’s Kingdom realm. To have the Holy Spirit is to have the realities of God’s Kingdom. Righteousness is our mindset of kindness in our relationships and speaks of putting others first and expressing goodness in having right relationships with others as well as right living. Walking in Kingdom realities is pleasing and beautiful to God. The Kingdom reality is that the Holy Spirit has come on earth to make us like Jesus, we can’t ever do it by ourselves. Let’s surrender ourselves to the Holy Spirit to walk in the reality of God’s Kingdom. Amen!
