"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls..." Matthew 13:45
The Kingdom of Heaven is not a casual thing. Those who want to to reach it will have to use all their strength. Your conquest depend on the determination and courage to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow the King Jesus.
It is true Mrs Ester those who want to be saved or to be citizen in the kingdom of God need to make an effort. it is not easy, it is a climb and we can only reach at the top if we deny ourselves. it is through determination, daily sacrifice and effort that we can lay hold of the kingdom of God. only forceful men will lay hold of the kingdom of God.
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs Esther,
ReplyDeleteThis is so true mom,If one wants to enter the kingdom of God it means the person must start now to work for it,because its not free you have to pay the price,such as denying your own will and carry the cross.
Thank you Mom
Hi Mrs. Esther!...
ReplyDeleteYes, all the people that want to be saved have to go to a lot of troubles because all that are from God are persecuted but when we have the Holy Spirit is like no matter what everything is going to be okay. and He give us the strength to keep forward but we need to put God is first place in our lives!
Hello Mrs Ester,
ReplyDeleteReading this message has really showed me that we need to continuously deny ourselves daily and follow the will of God, even when we go through persecutions and hard times we must always keep faithful to God. As women and men of God we need to resist temptation and keep fighting to overcome our obstacles, also we need to ask God to continuously give us the power to endure.
Hi Ms Esther,
ReplyDeleteThis post has opened my eyes, its true we have to preserve until the end if we want to enter the Kingdom of God. its not enough just to deny our flesh now & then but its something that needs to be done daily.
May God bless you.
Kisses.
If we want to be save and enter the kingdom of heaven we have to follow Jesus. Even if we are persecuted, God will not let anything happen to us, because we are His children.
ReplyDeleteWhenever i come across this verse it is always so powerful. The kingdom of God is so precious that it is not merely found so easily like a precious pearl. We need to search for it and be in constant yearning to know more of the creator and His world. Lets not loose sight my friends, lets continue in the journey. Praise God
ReplyDeleteThis massage is short, powerful and very true.
ReplyDeleteThe Kingdom of God is conquered by those who are determined and whose heart are fully committed to the Lord. Meaning that our battle is not an easy one, because we are fighting against the powers of the darkness. Satan will never allow our cross to be a light one, but he will put his obstacles and mountains in our ways for us to give up.
So we need to take courage, deny ourselves and follow the Lord Jesus.
Thanks a Lot Mrs Ester for the strong massage.
May God Bless you more.
it is a hiden trasure not any one finds it you have to seek it and work hard it cames with the price to have to pay the price to have it it is not jus given to any one but you need to look for it.
ReplyDeletethis so true you can only conque the kindom of God when you are detamine and you eraly sick for it.
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs Ester
ReplyDeleteThe Kingdom of God is worth everything we have and are and once found, one has to be ready give all in order to inherit it. It doesn't come cheap ,but it is worth it. We can receive it when we fight for it and deny our own will in order to do Go'd will.
Thank you Jesus
it is true!if you want to follow God you have to deny what to you want by doing that we will see the plan that he has for us.
ReplyDeletethis message is waking me up to realise that nothing is easy i must fight for what i want and the Kingdom of Heaven is not something that is easy to attain.
ReplyDeleteIt just ensures and shows the importance of perseverance, and really taking possession with all my strength, really whole heartedly, and be happy that I have this opportunity because it’s a opportunity many don't or have despised, the kingdom of God is taken by force, and it’s a fight. A fight that is worth it.
ReplyDeleteThis just shows me that i really do need to fight to go to heaven because its not easy.
ReplyDeletehello Mrs Ester
ReplyDeleteTo follow Jesus it is not a casual thing but it is about sacrifice as Jesus said; if we want to follow Him we need to deny ourselves and carry the cross and follow Him.
Hey Mrs.Ester
ReplyDeleteThis is true because the fight is not going to be easy but our reward is going to be soooo great and so much greater that we can't even imagine about...
But we have to fight the good fight because it will be worth it.
:-D
Blog Mrs. Ester ,The kingdom of heaven should be a great desire in our heart to be saved and to be part of this kingdom.We should not take it as consideration if i'm saved or not that is how it should be. If we want to be part of the kingdom our thinking has to change.Achieving our salvation it requieres big secrifices and obstacles to overcome and a commitment. It's step by step and a lot perseverance in this journey of being part of the kingdom of heaven.
