January 22 Isaiah 9:1-7
Always Increasing
Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end. Isaiah 9:7
IN WORD
What would it be like to enter a world in which everyone is fulfilled, no one ever suffers injustice, and all needs are met? How would you feel if you stepped into that world and, still overwhelmed by the peace and pleasure of it all, realized it would never, ever end? We…

Shalom
January 21 Isaiah 9:1-7
Shalom
He will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace — Isaiah 9:6
IN WORD
When Abraham went out to battle and came back victorious, recovering all that the invading kings had taken, he encountered a man named Melchizedek, “king of righteousness” (Hebrews 7:2), who is also identified as the king of Salem—literally, king of shalom.…

January 20 Isaiah 9:1-7
Head of Government
A child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders— Isaiah 9:6
IN WORD
God’s Kingdom is a government. Some people may not like the sound of that — government can have some pretty negative connotations—but it’s true. Our King manages resources, sets policy, establishes justice, pursues goals and purposes, and cares for…

Breaking Dawn
January 19 Isaiah 9:1-7
Breaking Dawn
The people who walk in darkness will see a great light – Isaiah 9:2
IN WORD
Kingdoms come and go. So do kings. Some come with great fanfare, and some leave in great turmoil. Others rise and fall routinely, just another character in a long line of succession. But when the King of the true Kingdom came, it was a remarkable advent, unnoticed by many, an…

All things new
January 18 Isaiah 65:17-25
All Things New
The Lord said, “look! I am creating new heavens and a new earth, and no one will even think about the old anymore — Isaiah 65:17
IN WORD
If God has gone to such trouble to restore the “icons” of His presence — transforming us to look like His image once again — doesn’t it make sense that He would restore the cosmic Temple in which He places those icons to…

Futility
January 17 Genesis 11:1-9
Come, let’s build a great city for ourselves with a tower that reaches into the sky. This will make us famous and keep us from being scattered all over the world — Genesis 11:4
IN WORD
God had told the first human brings to fill the earth and subdue it. They were to spread out, to be the governors of God’s realm under His kingship. The beauty and order of the Garden were…

The unkingdom
January 16 Genesis 6:11-22
_Now God saw that the earth had become corrupt and was filled with violence —_ Genesis 6:11
*IN WORD*
This isn’t what the Kingdom was supposed to look like. Eden hadn’t looked like it very much either, but that’s only because the mission hadn’t been carried out yet. At least Eden was a reflection of God’s goodness. But after the Fall, centuries of human history went in…

The Assignment
January 15 Genesis 1:27-31
_Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it _– Genesis 1:28
IN WORD
We had it all. A beautiful garden, a sweet assignment, innocent relationships, and a tangible connection with God Himself. Then we lost it all.
That’s the story of the human race and, more specifically, of our first parents. We like to think we might have handled things differently, but we…

Images in the temple
January 14 Genesis 1:27-31
_So God created human beings in His own image. In the image of God He created them; male and female he created them -_ Genesis 1:27
*IN WORD*
There are several cues in the creation account — numbers, vocabulary, sentence structures, and the like — that link it to the Tabenacle and the Temple (or vice versatility). Many Old Testament scholars have therefore come…

Until....
Until….
January 13 Psalm 110
_The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.”_ – *Psalm 110:1*
IN WORD
Which Old Testament verse is quoted more than any other in the New Testament? Not a prophecy about the coming of the Messiah, not a prophecy about the Cross and Resurrection, and not even a recap of the greatest…

The Reatoration Project
January 12 Acts 3:17-23
He must remain in heaven until the time for the final restoration of all things – Acts 3:21
IN WORD
God is into restoration. In the Prophets, He restores His people to the land, and they restore broken walls (Isaiah 58:12). Through Jesus, He restores His own image in redeemed image-bearers. In the end, He restores Eden’s qualities, but in a city rather than a garden…

Which Realm?
January 11 Matthew 6:9-13
Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven – Matthew 6:10
*IN WORD*
Not everyone adds an assumption to the third phrase of this verse, but many do: “On earth as (a faint reflection of what is) in heaven.” But if we really think about Jesus’ prayer, we realize that it has staggering implications. He is teaching His followers to pray that God’s…

Whose will?
January 10 Matthew 6:9-11
Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven – Matthew 6:10
IN WORD
We read the lines of scripture without realizing how often we read between the lines. Virtually everyone does; we have our notions of what Jesus meant from what we’ve been taught or from the worldview we grew up with. So, to what Jesus trained His followers to pray, “Your will be…

Whose Kingdom?
January 9 Matthew 6:9-13
Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven – Matthew 6:10
IN WORD
We make assumptions when we read the Bible through our own preconceived beliefs, and several common assumptions distort this verse. Though Jesus taught His disciples to pray, “Your Kingdom come,” many people hear instead, “your Kingdom come (one day).” And though scripture indicates a…

Head over everything
January 8 Ephesians 1:18-23
God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the Church – Ephesians 1:22
IN WORD
Jesus has always been the rightful King, but His Kingship hasn’t always been practically enforced. God put all things under His feet, which means, of course, that all things weren’t already under His feet. This Kingship is…

Both Ages
January 7 Ephesians 1:18-23
Both Ages
I pray that ….. you may know……his incomparably great power….not only in the present age but also in the one to come – Ephesians 1:18-19
IN WORD
Much of Christendom today thinks in terms of “this world’ and “that World” – life on earth and life in heaven. Perhaps that’s because we see around us so many contradictions to the Kingdom that we assume all…

Kingdom Promotion
January 6 Luke 19:11-27
To those who use well what they are given, even more will be given. But from those who do nothing, even what little they have will be taken away – Luke 19:26
IN WORD
We like to think God’s Kingdom is a perfectly comfortable realm — that it will match every impulse we’ve ever had about “this is how it should be done,” that it will resolve every sense of injustice we…
