Do you see what we’ve got? An unshakable kingdom! And do you see how thankful we must be? Not only thankful, but brimming with worship, deeply reverent before God. For God is not an indifferent bystander. He’s actively cleaning house, torching all that needs to burn, and he won’t quit until it’s all cleansed. God himself is Fire.
Dear Ones: An Unshakeable Kingdom! When news bulletins flash—Breaking Breaking—we may be surprised or shaken by the news reports. But our heavenly Father is never surprised or shaken by the activities of the evil one and his minions. His Kingdom is eternal as shared in a recent post and unshakable. We must never forget that He is All-Knowing, All-Mighty, and Ever Present. He sees our past, our present, and our future all at the same time. He established a unique plan for each of our lives before we were even born. We just need to comply with His plan because He never revokes our freewill.
In these verses the writer compares our God and Father to a consuming fire. His passion for every born-again child of God is a burning fire of love. Remember, He did not prevent the 3 Hebrew men from being thrown into the fire. But He walked in the fire with them. When they emerged, they came out not even smelling of smoke. However, we have a better covenant on this side of the Cross because of the Blood of Christ. Should we not be thankful and worship Him for His faithfulness? Allow His love fire to burn in you to cleanse you of past hurts and wounds. It is His desire that you should be the best He created you to be.
May you come to appreciate that you are a part of an unshakeable Kingdom. Worship Him and give Him thanks for not giving up on you. He won’t quit on you so don’t allow the enemy to depress you to quit on Him. You are an overcomer, so begin to act like one. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
