What you know about the kingdom determines what you get from it. Insight equals abundance. Lack of insight equals lack. The kingdom rewards the informed.
People measure the kingdom by material things. But Jesus said the kingdom is not meat and drink. It is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. — Romans 14:17
Don't look for a future government change to experience God's kingdom. The kingdom is within you. The authority you've been waiting for is already inside you. — Luke 17:21
The kingdom of God cannot be put in a box. It is as diverse as the different dealings God has with different people. You can't define it in one sentence — and that's the point.

Avoid being condescending as you speak to people about Jesus. When you witness, you don’t have to win arguments or defend God. You’re His witness, not His lawyer, so just tell what Jesus has done in you, and let God handle the rest.
I think about decisions in three ways: hats, haircuts, and tattoos.
Most decisions are like hats. Try one and if you don’t like it, put it back and try another. The cost of a mistake is low, so move quickly and try a bunch of hats.
Some decisions are like haircuts. You can fix a bad one, but it won’t be quick and you might feel foolish for a while. That said, don't be scared of a bad haircut. Trying something new is usually a risk worth taking. If it doesn't work out, by this time next year you will have moved on and so will everyone else.
A few decisions are like tattoos. Once you make them, you have to live with them. Some mistakes are irreversible. Maybe you'll move on for a moment, but then you'll glance in the mirror and be reminded of that choice all over again. Even years later, the decision leaves a mark. When you're dealing with an irreversible choice, move slowly and think carefully.
If you don’t have a plan, join me in reading through the Bible in 2026 with the Navigators Bible Reading Plan, which I have used for decades. You can print it, or read on your device at YouVersion.
The genius of this plan is that there are only 25 assigned days each month. So, you can catch up. Or use those days to memorize.
We will be commenting on lots of these texts on ‘Ask Pastor John’ throughout the year. https://t.co/gYnKsfyLjr
