Are we worthy of God's kingdom?
The short answer is no. We are not worthy if not by the grace and mercy of God.
We will enter in to the house of God with confidence because of the cross of Jesus and what he did for us on that cross, he becomes our righteousness.
But unfortunately, most of us become worthy of the world because we level ourselves to the foolish desires of this world.
The Bible says in Hebrew 11:38 regarding our faithful children of God,
The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.
Surely, if the world is worthy of us, then surely, we are not worthy of God's kingdom.
Let me explain what worthy of the world mean exactly.
We are worthy of this world if we talk like them, we love and hate like them, if we live our lives like them. If we watched the same movie like them. If we treat others like the people of the world and specially if we are loved by the world and get their attention.
Jesus said that when the people of this world love and adore you then watch out as you are in the wrong track.
But when they hate you and prosecute you for doing the right thing, then rejoice because they also did the same thing to Jesus.
Beloved children of God, love for the things of the world will cost us our relationship with God.
Love and adoration for the world is enmity with God.
We cannot be citizens of devil as well as God's kingdom.
The world belongs to the devil. He is the ruler of the darkness in the world.
But while we live in it, he cannot overpower us and defeat us since he who is in us (HOLY SPIRIT) is stronger is he who is in the world, devil.
Faith is confidence in God that he is going to finish what he started in our lives.
In other words, faith is assurance of the things that we don't see.
Our faith father defied the devil and its foolish desires of the world by one simple but mighty weapon. FAITH!!!
