How to See the Kingdom of God

There was a man named Nicodemus who was a Pharisee and a Jewish leader.  One night he went to Jesus and said, "Sir, we know that God has sent you to teach us. You could not work these miracles, unless God were with you."  Jesus replied, "I tell you for certain that you must be born from above before you can see God's kingdom!"  Nicodemus asked, "How can a grown man ever be born a second time?"  Jesus answered: I tell you for certain that before you can get into God's kingdom, you must be born not only by water, but by the Spirit.

John 3: 1 - 5

After you are “Born Again” you can see something that you could not see before!  When you become a certified follower of Jesus Christ you can see the Kingdom of God in the world around you.

As a born again citizen of the Kingdom of God, you can see others who are the same as you.  Men and women, both old and young who respond to the wishes of the King and are obedient to His every Word make up the Kingdom of God here on earth.

Those who are not born again, see people who are “deluded” by a myth or “fairy tale” about “pie in the sky, in the by and by!”  They think you are crazy because they are literally blinded by the truth!  They are like men staring into the sun and seeing nothing but the blinding light.

But when you are born again by the Water and the Spirit you are supernaturally empowered to walk through this world and can see miracles all around! You can see the Kingdom of God!

Like a man with terrible vision, trying to read a sign along the side of the road, someone who is not part of the Kingdom of God can see the signs, but has no clue what they mean!

Instead of pointing out the “signs” to the lost, tell them about how they can be born again and become part of the Kingdom of God.  Then they will see and understand that God is working in the lives of men and woman all around the world!

“Lord Jesus, thank You for opening the eyes of those who seek and follow You so that they can see the Kingdom of God in this world today.  Praise Your Holy Name now and forever.  Amen.”
