The Kingdom of God is in the midst of you (Luke 17:21). You are fully equipped; God has placed within you everything you need to succeed and win in life. The problem is that while you might believe Luke 17:21 on some level, you don’t really act it out daily. You aren’t living your life as if you truly believe the Kingdom of God is within you. Stop waiting for an external savior; your savior is within you already. Embrace this truth and start living with the confidence and power that comes from knowing God has already given you all you need.
Things are hard because you haven’t done enough to build momentum. You aren’t moving forward fast enough to escape the life of mediocrity and unfruitfulness you’re trying to leave behind. Instead, you keep looking externally for shortcuts and quick fixes. You’re not even sure what you want. The Bible says a double-minded person cannot receive anything from the Lord and is unstable in all their ways (James 1:6-8). The seed of greatness is within you, but it is just that—a seed. You must focus within to grow it into a mighty tree. Your deliverance, your salvation, your wealth will only come from inside you.
You can build momentum by going back to the basics. Understand that God is love, and seek after righteousness, mercy, and justice. It’s been inside you all this time, but only as a seed. Start by dedicating time each day to prayer and meditation, grounding yourself in the Word of God. Set small, achievable goals to create consistent progress. Practice gratitude to cultivate a positive mindset, and engage in acts of kindness to strengthen your connection to others. By focusing on these foundational principles, you nurture the seed within you, allowing it to grow into a mighty tree that bears the fruit of your true potential.
