Power Up Your SPIRIT
“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10 NIV
“That’s just the way the world works” is a phrase we say when we acknowledge that terrible things happen and settle in our minds that we’re helpless against it.
That’s a loser’s mentality. Not only is it a wrong approach to life, but it also transfers our power back to the devil, allowing him to do as he pleases.
I have also used the phrase many times. But today’s scripture reminds me that because God reigns on the earth through us, we have been empowered to change the way the world works.
God’s will gets done on earth as it is in heaven only when we follow His instructions and influence the corrupt systems of the world.
If Jesus, when He came, succumbed to that phrase, there would be no dispensation of grace because, in the world, it’s an eye for an eye. You get what you deserve.
It’s not in our DNA to just accept a bad system. If a burden has been placed on your heart to influence a system so it runs as it is in heaven, then that’s how you’ll make God’s kingdom come to the earth.
The Holy Spirit came deliberately to make this transformation possible, even through the weakest of men. So, we can do this.

How can we unite the kingdom of heaven and earth in the work we do?
I believe the first step is to know what God will have us do through our work. That is His will.
In business building and marketing, the best first step is to always find a problem that you want to solve. Why?
Problems are signs of bad systems.
God doesn’t create bad systems. So, if there’s a problem that you resonate with, it becomes the channel through which you cause God’s will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.
And once you find the problem you want to solve, you realize that you’ve been empowered to solve it.
For every problem on this earth, God has a vessel He can send. It’s His way of bringing us closer to His original design. This is why work is so important to God.
We will see the positive manifestations of our work physically but also know that thrones get upturned spiritually when we take our place.
