The Kingdom Isn’t a Destination – It’s a Journey
Imagine being part of something bigger than yourself. The Kingdom of God isn’t just a heavenly destination—it’s a transformative journey right here, right now. Jesus didn’t come to create a passive membership club, but to ignite a powerful movement of hope and transformation.
“The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed, nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.” – Luke 17:20-21
Three Misconceptions About God’s Kingdom
- Myth 1: The Kingdom is only about going to heaven
- Myth 2: Being a church member automatically means you’re in the Kingdom
- Myth 3: Your spiritual journey is just about personal blessing
People Over Programs: Jesus’ Ultimate Priority
The Kingdom of God is fundamentally about people. Not institutions, not programs, not fancy buildings—but people. When Jesus moved through villages, his heart wasn’t focused on crowds or fame, but on genuine compassion.
“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.” – Matthew 9:36
Let that sink in. Jesus saw beyond physical needs. He saw spiritual potential. Every person you encounter is a potential kingdom carrier.
Your Kingdom Assignment: More Than You Think
Here’s a challenging truth: You are not a spectator in God’s plan—you’re a key player. Jesus doesn’t need perfect people; he needs willing hearts. Whether you’re a teacher, a student, a business owner, or a homemaker, you have a unique kingdom role.
The Harvest is Waiting
Jesus himself said the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. In Macau, less than 5% are born-again believers. That’s not a statistic—that’s an opportunity.
