For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

 Work of the Holy Spirit:

 

            Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit:

 Romans 14:17

17 for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

                 We get so caught up in the trappings of looking Christian to those around us and doing those things expected of us that we forget what the Kingdom of God is all about. It is living the holy life; living in peace with God and man; and rejoicing always in the Holy Spirit. If we are content with these, we shall truly be able to accomplish all God has in mind for us. Also, others will want to enter the Kingdom too.

 

If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He would say:

            "Many people have rules and regulations to come unto Me. I have but one … that you desire to be with Me. You shall come unto Me whenever you desire. You shall be in My company all the days of your life. You shall never wither, and you shall never die as long as you stay in Me. You are in My Kingdom when you desire to be with Me; and you shall be protected from the ills of the world as you reside daily in My love.”

 

            49. I am in the Kingdom of God and will walk continually in righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
