*📖BE PART OF THE KINGDOM BUSINESS*
👉(Reading: Matthew 9:35-38)
🗓Sunday, October 11
📜And Jesus went about all the cities, and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom… among the people *Matthew 9:35 (NIV)*
📋Jesus’ aim of coming into the world was mainly to establish his Kingdom and bring mankind back to the Creator. To accomplish this task, he devoted his time and energy to preaching and teaching about who God is and his plans for man. He knew also that he was intentionally planted in darkness to be the light. So he declared, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12, NIV). He began his work by choosing twelve disciples whom he taught the truths, principles and values of the Kingdom so that they might spread the light to the world. As Christians, we are expected to be his disciples, charged to be involved in this Kingdom business through preaching and teaching of his word. We are to “preach the word; [and should] be prepared in season and out of season …” (2 Tim 4:2). As Christians, our Lord Jesus also expects us to be the light of the world through our character and good deeds. This will make the preaching and teaching about the Kingdom attractive to those living in darkness. Are you involved in God’s Kingdom business by word and deed? How are you partnering with him in the Kingdom business?
