You are Carriers of the Kingdom

by Shelly Kalenius


Recently, at our Growing in the Supernatural Reviverence, Jason Westerfield from Kingdom Reality Ministries shared insights that “rocked my world.” It was not what he shared, but how he shared. Or rather, Who shared.  Simply put, I did not see Jason. I saw a vessel emptied of self, literally filled to overflowing, vibrating, bouncing, and spouting the Love, Life, Light, Truth and Power of the Kingdom of Heaven. It was tangible, real, contagious, and spirit-changing. He presented the Word of God simply, yet profoundly, opening up a completely new realm of understanding of our identity and our position in Christ Jesus. It’s real and it’s Kingdom, and it’s ours to possess now.

I want to share some of the insights that helped realign my position in Him. As you read on, there won’t be any surprises in what I share and I’m sure you have all heard and read these Scriptures so many times you know them by heart. My prayer today is that you will know them in your heart, in your spirit, like never before. I ask Holy Spirit to come sharpen our spiritual ears and eyes and give us wise and discerning hearts to know and understand what is already ours to appropriate. Kingdom reality, in Jesus’ name.

"You know, there is a place where all things are possible.
But then there is a place where it clicks, and they really are.

There is a place where we know all things are possible
and we choose to believe by faith.

Then, there is a place where they really are.

It is not whether they are [possible] or not, because they just are…

it is if they are in you

If we believe, then we get to receive, and what we receive, we become
and when we become, we’re true to ourselves, and stuff happens."

How awesome that we live in a time when God is pouring out His Spirit and we are able to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He wants us to open up our hearts to really know Him and to be known by Him. He has always wanted us to know Him. God is beginning to open up our eyes and ears to hear Him and it is no longer enough to keep our relationship with Him to ourselves. If we are truly in relationship with Him, we will not be able to contain it.

John 7:37–38 says, “On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’ ” Is He really in you? If so, you should feel a rumbling in your tummy!

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  He was in the beginning with God.  All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.  In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.  And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.” (John 1:1-5 NKJV)

You are in Him and He is in you. You are in His Kingdom and His Kingdom is within you. His Spirit is within you. You are a Life-Station where people can “fill ’er up” with Living Water, Dunamis Power, the Light of the World and the Spirit of Life. WOW! You are carriers of the Kingdom.

While forces around us threaten our peace and stability, and everything that can be shaken is being shaken, you have God and you have hope. Let Him flow through you to those who desperately need Him.

Prayer Directives for September 2008

Your thoughts and words are powerful tools, and must be used wisely.  Job 22:28 says, “You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways.”  Peter says we belong to “a royal priesthood” (1 Peter 2:9) and John says, “He has made us kings and priests” (Revelation 1:6). As kings, we have authority to decree and establish a thing. Walk in your royal anointing because “all creation is waiting” (Romans 8:19).

Prayers and Decrees for Extreme Prophetic/CSA

Wisdom and Understanding - James 1:5, Proverbs 4:7.



Thank You, Father, that You chose us to be alive in this day and in this hour, to witness and be stewards of all You are releasing on Your people. Thank You for giving us a wise and discerning heart and an understanding mind and spirit to know Your ways and the working of Your hand. We will pursue You so we might know You and Your heart and walk in your ways all our days.

Enlarge our Hearts - Psalm 119:32, Isaiah 54:2

.

Lord Jesus, enlarge our hearts and open the eyes of our understanding. Increase our capacity to hold more of You, to know You, and to grow in the knowledge of God. Help us to grow in the strength of Your might, that we may know You, be known by You, and make You known to everyone and everything, so it will come back to You and bring glory and worship to Your name.

A Holy Company - Proverbs 2:7–9; 8:7–8,18, 2 Corinthians 5:21; 6:16.

Thank You, Father, that You guard our paths and preserve our ways so that we walk in purity, truth, and righteousness. Your Kingdom of righteousness does reign in our lives and we will be a holy company moving in Your mighty power.

We decree to love without wavering and cleave to the truth without compromise. We will stand strong in Him in His love and truth.

Father, continually fill us with compassion for those who express themselves in angry ways to us. Remind us they need the Your love and comfort. Preserve us from falling into wrong attitudes and defensiveness and help us grow in love and remain in Your love. James says, "For man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires." (James 1:20 NIV)

But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." (Joshua 24:15b NKJV)
