The word for today is - Within !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Within !
 
What is within you? Is it the Spirit of God? Now, get this everyone is not of God. You see some will reject Him. Jesus said to the Pharisees that rejected him,your of the devil. Read John 8:44,Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. The Bible tells us that we have three distinct parts to our being its, Body, Soul, and Spirit. On the inside of your Soul is your Spirit. The Bible refers to our human Spirit as being our “Innermost Being.” When we receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, the Holy Spirit comes within, its the Spirit of God within you. Thats something to think about! You must have the new birth in order to make it in to the kingdom. Jesus' teaching on the new birth when he was visited by Nicodemus. You see, Nicodemus was seeking the truth. So,Nicodemus came to Jesus in the night, seeking the truth, afraid of being seen in the day. Read John 3:3, Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Some people my be confused like Nicodemus, this birth is within, its not a Physical new birth, but a Spiritual rebirth. Lets look at the promise Jesus gave to His disciples, read John 14:26, But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Also,read Luke 17:20-21, 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. Its within you! About eight days after He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain and they saw Jesus transfigured into His glory He hid within Himself, and along with the appearance of Moses and Elijah that would be present when Jesus establishes his kingdom on earth. They were able to get a glimpse into the future kingdom that would be for the saints. Lets look at Luke 9:27, But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.  Now get this,read 1 Samuel 10:5-6, After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines: and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a tabret, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they shall prophesy: And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man. It says when the Spirit comes upon you, a change comes within. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
