“The Kingdom Of God – God’s Strategy (Matt. 20:17-19; Mark 10:32;Luke 18:31-32; 1 Cor. 14:24-28; Ephesians 3:7-13) [Module #258]

I see it, Lord, it’s strategy,
This Kingdom-life you’ve given to me;
You’re dealing with the satan group
Which messes with our loop-de-loop.

Third day He rose – first of the week
(The day that Christians mostly meet),
But more than that, we see – in You
A risen life as what we do.

For Kingdom-life which God set up,
With You as Lord, is good enough
Not just for us and life we lead,
But also ends old satan’s deeds.

I like Paul’s line (Ephesians three),
Where God displays through you and me
To satan and his motley band
A better way to understand –

The way life works – out-flow through folks
Of life of God gives as we are yoked
With others in Christ’s body-space –
God’s Kingdom – land so rich with grace.

That changes how we do our lives,
As we opt-in beneath the skies –
Now “in” the world, not “of” its ways,
Released, in Christ, to better days.

Thanks Lord for this.
