Jesus said, "Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18:2-3) The kingdom of God requires childlike faith and trust as well as childlike cleanliness of spirit. Jesus is referring to the abundant life that is made available to believers here on earth; the Kingdom of God offers believers freedom from the bondage of sin and death. Freedom in Christ offers every believer the fullness of the Kingdom of God here on earth.
You can achieve the promise of God concerning abundant life here on earth. Righteousness, peace and joy can be experienced daily despite the hurts, pains and injustices that may have been experienced in the past. There is a direct connection between stress, negative emotions and disease. Christian depression, self hatred, stress, anxiety and fears are often the very root to physical sicknesses that we may have been experiencing. There is a temptation to accept negative thinking and attitudes that come from spiritual darkness. These negative thoughts and attitudes can lead to addiction, stress, depression and sickness.
The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy but Jesus comes to give life more abundantly. The pathway to light and life is offered by Jesus Christ. The abundant life provides freedom in Christ that results in the healing of sexual abuse, healing addictions, overcoming anxiety, overcoming addiction, overcoming depression, overcoming rejection, and overcoming self hatred.
We have been given sovereignty over our own minds and hearts. We have been given the ability to choose which emotions we will receive and display; negative emotions, despite what injustice we have experienced, are sin. Sin will lead us directly to the path of darkness and sickness. The kingdom of God is made up of righteousness, peace, and joy. We can partake of these wonderful attributes of the kingdom.
Healthy living is provided through Jesus Christ. The abundant life is available to every believer despite the hurts and pains of the past. Joy and peace can dominate our emotions and provide daily health or physical bodies. Freedom in Christ offers hope for the future and freedom from addictions and unhealthy emotions.
