How God's Kindom Comes to Earth


In practical terms we bring the Kingdom of God comes to earth as we do Gods will. God does indeed work in many sovereign ways. But hes delegated much of what he could do instantly himself to train his sons and daughters to rule in his stead. Most of the time well impact one life at a time as God leads us—sometimes we may impact many at one time as we obey him by doing his will. Here are some ways to bring the Kingdom to earth in you day to day journey,.

Love the Lost: Live to Love God and others. Stay humble by serving others.
 
 
Cultivate a passionate thirst to serve: Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men (Ephesians 6:7).

 
Worship God through your service: I glory in Christ  Jesus in my service to God (Romans 15:17).

 
Discern your spiritual gifts and use them to bless the body of Christ: Now to each one the manifestation  of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through  the Spirit  the message of wisdom,  to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines (1 Corinthians 12:7-11).

Use your gifts for Gods glory: We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a mans gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging,  let him encourage; if it is contributing  to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully (Romans 12:6-8).
