Key to God's Kingdom Economy

Key to God's Kingdom Economy

God took the Jews from a 430 year slavery in the then Egypt, to the freedom of a homeland of their own, albeit through a wilderness. A type of the movement of God's people into a Kingdom where the will of God is known, recognised and is done.

The land God chose for them was one which flowed or flows with milk and honey, a land with mineral resources and a modern Eden...

[My Offline Bible] Deuteronomy 8
9 a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig copper. 10 And thou shalt eat and be full, and thou shalt bless Jehovah thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.

That showed us today the nature of the Kingdom God is bringing us to. The land that is taken cared of by God Himself, a Kingdom where you can freely give because you have freely received Matthew 10:8, a Kingdom where you can sell all you have to purchase Matthew 13:44-46...

The Kingdom of God isn't like the kingdom God delivered us from, where it all depends on the survival of the fittest, where resources are scarce with only a few controlling the largest portion and the 80% left to scramble for the 20% or less remaining resources...See how it was described...

[My Offline Bible] Deuteronomy 11
10 For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs; 11 but the land, whither ye go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven, 12 a land which Jehovah thy God careth for: the eyes of Jehovah thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.

This is the type of the Kingdom of God that Jesus Christ offers, a place where God cares directly as a good and compassionate Father King.

No wonder, Jesus said...
[My Offline Bible] Matthew 6
28 And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29 yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31 Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

When we allow God rule over us and not money.. This is what happens. When God's will is done in our finances we bring God's Kingdom to pass in our economies. When we serve God and not mammon, we enjoy the abundance of God's house.

Mammon is the tool used by Satan to control the Kingdoms of this world where scarcity is artificially created to cause people to be enslaved to money.

But when we serve God and not mammon, seeking His Kingdom and righteousness, we connect with the financial dominion of the Kingdom with contentment and without worldliness, greed, selfishness or more covetousness, ruling over money and not money reigning over us and the promises of the Kingdom can be ours today just by the grace and power of God.

Such grace is described here...
[My Offline Bible] Deuteronomy 6
10 And it shall be, when Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee, great and goodly cities, which thou buildest not, 11 and houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and cisterns hewn out, which thou hewedst not, vineyards and olive-trees, which thou plantedst not, and thou shalt eat and be full;

In this Kingdom of God, God is planting for us a garden like in Eden, He is bringing us to a 'country' He founded and built by Himself and we can count ourselves strangers in the land
of economic woes of this world, something better is reserved for us and we should connect with that by faith!

[My Offline Bible] Hebrews 11
9 By faith he became a sojourner in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents, with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10 for he looked for the city which hath the foundations, whose
builder and maker is God.

When we seek that Kingdom just as Abraham sought his...what Jesus said concerning our sustenance comes to pass filling us with abundance and joy unspeakable full of glory!
Good Morning!
