Kingdom Thinking
In our journey as believers, developing a Kingdom mindset is pivotal. But what exactly is the Kingdom?
The territory governed by God, and the realm where God’s will is fulfilled.
Components of the Kingdom:
1. A King (Jesus)
2. Citizens (Sons and Daughters, The body of Christ)
3. Territory of rulership (The nations)
Key Kingdom Mindsets:
1. Myopic Mindset:
- Nearsighted, self-absorbed, lacking understanding.
- A contrast to seeking first the Kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33).
2. Priority of Focus:
- Emphasizes seeking the Kingdom as the top priority (Matthew 6:33).
- Contrasts the worry-dominated mindset of unbelievers (Matthew 6:31-32).
3. Influencing Choices:
- Proverbs 23:7 underscores the importance of our thinking in shaping who we become.
- Kingdom thinking involves understanding and applying biblical principles.
4. The Kingdom:
- The Kingdom of God means God’s will executed, God’s jurisdiction, and Heaven’s influence.
Influencing Decisions:
- Reflect on mindsets influencing decisions and choices.
- Align decisions with God's will, fear of the Lord, pleasing God, giving to honor, realizing completeness through Christ, living abundantly through Jesus, impacting culture positively, and cultivating an attitude of gratitude.
Mind Renewing Verses:
- Ephesians 4:23, Colossians 3:2, Philippians 2:5, 1 Corinthians 2:16, Philippians 2:2, Romans 8:7.
- Meditate on these verses for mind renewal.
Citizens of Heaven:
- Philippians 3:20 declares believers as citizens of heaven.
- Psalms 24:1 emphasizes that everything belongs to the Lord.
In conclusion, as citizens of heaven, adopting Kingdom thinking transforms our identity, choices, and perspective, enabling us to extend the Kingdom of God in our lives.
Blessings as you embrace Kingdom Thinking and extend the Kingdom of God!
