Jesus’ disciples asked Him to teach them to pray.
"And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father
which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done,
as in heaven, so in earth." - Luke 11:2 KJV
What does the Bible say God's kingdom is?
"For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but
righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost." - Romans 14:17 KJV
How can we enter the kingdom of God in order to have God’s
righteousness, peace, and joy?
"Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the
kingdom of God." - John 3:5 KJV
How are we born of water and of the Spirit?
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized
every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye
shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." - Acts 2:38 KJV
"And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and
began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance." -
Acts 2:4 KJV
When we are filled with God’s Spirit, the Holy Ghost, it is
a taste of heaven on earth.
"But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love
wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us
together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together,
and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:" - Ephesians
2:4-6 KJV
"And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the
kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God
cometh not with observation: neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there!
for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you." - Luke 17:20-21 KJV
The Holy Ghost is a treasure He places within us.
"For God, who commanded the light to shine out of
darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the
glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen
vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us." -
2 Corinthians 4:6-7 KJV
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new
creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
- 2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV
