The Kingdom Of God

Mark 4:30-32 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:  But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

There’s no question that the Kingdom of Jesus was like the tiny mustard seed. In the beginning there was Jesus and  some uneducated fishermen, a few revolutionaries, some women and a traitor --- 120 devoted followers before the Day of Pentecost. But on that day over 3,000 believed. Not many days later it was said that the church in Jerusalem numbered some 50,000.

The Kingdom of God has expanded enormously, and one day a vast multitude that can’t be numbered will stand before the Lord in Heaven and praise Him for saving them by His grace,
     
If you are a child of God, dedicate your life to Him. He can use you in ways you would never believe.

If you are not a child of God, confess your sins and believe on Him. He won’t turn you away, and He’ll do more in and through your life than you can imagine.
