2024 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES – MESSAGE.
“My dad took me and my little brother on a short trip to a foreign embassy last weekend,”
Michelle shared with her best friend, Rachel.
“Really? How was the experience?” Rachel asked excitedly.
“Quite unusual, Ree. It almost felt like we had temporarily left this country. Everything, including the elevator voice announcer, spoke in a funny language! We also met the foreign ambassador, and he spoke in this foreign language with my dad; it was pretty neat!”
“It seems like you had a true cultural representation of that country, as though you had travelled there,” Rachel remarked.
Much like that foreign embassy and its ambassador, we’ve been called to represent the culture of our heavenly Kingdom in our world. Looking at the concluding part of the prayer format above (Matthew 6:13), we see the Lord teaching His disciples to say about the Kingdom of God: “…For Yours is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”
In St. Matthew’s gospel, there’s another expression used— the Kingdom of Heaven—though interchangeably used with the Kingdom of God, it is different. The Kingdom of God refers to the rulership or dominion of God, which transcends territories and is universal, while the Kingdom of Heaven is applied particularly in connection to the Messiah, Jesus Christ, and His messianic reign. It’s that part of the Kingdom of God that’s established in the earth and is headed by Jesus.
The vision of the Kingdom of Heaven is the establishment and expansion of the Kingdom of God in the earth; it’s the work of Jesus Christ, of which we, the Church, are a vital part. Each one of us actually has the responsibility of seeing to the expansion of God’s Kingdom because we belong there and it’s important that you know your role. Devote your time, effort, and resources to Gospel propagation because there’s so much more you can do to ensure God’s Word prevails in your city, region, country, and the world.

PRAY
Dear Father, I’m determined, more than ever, to spread to the ends of the earth the glorious news of Christ’s salvation and His wondrous acts towards mankind. Your Kingdom has been set up in my heart; the peace, beauty, glory, grace, and life of God are fully functional in my spirit, expressed in and through me. And through me, the Word prevails in my city, region, country, and the world. Glory to God!
