“Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. – Isaiah 55:1 NKJV
“For the Kingdom of GOD is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” – Romans 14:17 NKJV
“For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.” – Romans 8:13 NKJV
I believe that the devil is still using the same MO (Modus Operandi) today that he used in the garden with Adam and Eve. It is his tried and tested method of trying to bring us down. In today’s context, he uses it to keep us from entering the Kingdom, that even though we may be born- again, he knows that if he can keep us out of the Kingdom, he can render us ineffective. “What are the wrong things that belong to this world? People want to do bad things to make themselves happy. People want to have things that they see, even bad things. People want to show other people how rich they are. These ideas do not come from GOD, our Father. They are the thoughts of people who belong to the world. One day, those people and the things that they want will not be there any longer. But those who continue to do what GOD wants will live for ever.” 1 John 2:16-17 EASY.
Everything that we are looking for is in the Kingdom, the world is only selling us a counterfeit. That is why most people are chasing wealth, while the people that have it are giving it away, and others even kill themselves because it cannot buy them what they really need. There is nothing that we lack as children of GOD that are rightly positioned in the Kingdom. Imagine coming to the end of your life or pursuit, and looking around only to see that although you have all the money in the world, you have no relatives, friends, spouse and no relationship with your children, would it really be worth it?
GOD is a loving Father and knows exactly what we need, and when we need it on this journey. We can trust Him because He is trustworthy (Hebrews 10:23). Our part is to make sure that we are rightly positioned in the Kingdom, and that we are growing daily into His image and likeness. To pursue holiness and His righteousness and He will add what we need (Matthew 6:33). We are not meant to toil as the world does for things that we will leave behind when our time here on earth is up, but rather to seek Him whom we will spend eternity with. Everything that we need and will ever need is fully paid for.
