Today’s Scripture: Matthew 11:14, ESV- “and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come.”
In Matthew 10 and 11, Jesus gives instructions to His disciples and to us. He also acknowledges that many are unwilling to accept Him and are violent against the Kingdom of God.
We are witnessing this violence against the Kingdom of Heaven of God today. We can see today, just as in the days of old, that violence is inflicted because of man’s fight for their beliefs instead of accepting the Kingdom of Heaven.
If we are willing to hear and accept the Spirit of God and ask Jesus to reveal the Father to us, can we move beyond our violence. Being willing to accept with a gentle and humble heart that there is a Kingdom beyond the flesh will we find the rest for our souls Jesus promises in Matthew 11:29.
Are you willing to accept the Kingdom of Heaven?
Today’s Prayer: Heavenly Father, I am welcoming and accepting Your Kingdom. I am trusting You and Your Spirit LORD Who is beyond my ability to understand yet still made available to me. I am thankful and welcoming of Jesus who teaches us about You Father and Your kingdom. I am proclaiming that the Kingdom of Heaven has come near. Help me to stand firm with Jesus until the end and acknowledge Him always. Amen.
