DAY 3

Prayer for the kingdom of God to be enthroned in our lives.

“The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God. Acts 1:1-3”

In the forty days Jesus spent with the apostles after his resurrection, all he talked about with them was things pertaining to the kingdom of God. He did not talk about material acquisition or the things the world pursues, all that matters is the kingdom of God, if it is enthroned in our lives, material things will be added automatically to us.
The kingdom of God focuses solely on Jesus, ensuring HE ALONE IS ENTHRONED IN OUR LIVES, and we pursue after righteousness, not the love for this world, not love for money, not pursuit for fame/human recognition & accolades etc, all the things the people of the world seek/run after shall be added unto us. Matt 6:25-33.
