The Internal Reign of God

As He takes first place, His truth challenges every opinion and assumption. His standards of love convict our hearts’ attitudes towards both ourselves and others. 

We submit our choices and decisions, surrendering our inner thoughts that lurk within our hearts to His Sovereignty. 

Holy Spirit shows us what love looks like and how it conducts itself from within God’s heart. So we allow His heart to speak first, choosing His perspective in all things. Thus, we are able to respond with a Christ-like character.

We receive the revelation as we sit within the pages of scripture. However, the true learning begins when we apply all that He has spoken within our hearts to our day-to-day lives. Conversing with Him internally in every situation and circumstance. As we learn to walk this way, we find that our mistakes, mishaps, and even stubbornness are met with kindness. He bathes us in His redeeming grace and redirects us back to the path. The rich lessons we have learned are from a practical experience of God showing up in our lives.

Now truth becomes our new reality as God reveals Himself within and externally in our lives. As we cling to Him through the good and the bad times, we became irreversibly entwined forever as one in union with Christ. From this point on, our hearts are intrinsically woven into His. In this place, we walk taller in Him, understanding our identity in this tight-knit union.

Our greatest moments are when we chose to simply surrender and trust. No longer do we race ahead, but stand awaiting His instruction. Placing our hand in the one outstretched towards us. His footsteps become our own. As we simply defer to His authority, even when we think we know best, we see the glorious plans He has for us unfold.

We accept Him reigning with tender compassion and divine authority over us and simply bow in adoration. Every day that we choose to let God rule and reign within our lives, we see His beauty and victory on display.
