The Simplicity Of God's Kingdom

Just believe. Just have faith. Jesus Christ is the number one example of operating in the kingdom of God for us as believers. Often times people insist that operating and living in the kingdom of God is complicated. There seems to be a portrayal of difficulty and inaccessibility for many when they think about the supernatural. Jesus, however, shows us something else. When I read the Gospels, I see the kingdom of God, operating in the supernatural, and even receiving my own complete healing in my body as something that is very simple.
Jesus lays out for us what we must do in order to operate and live in the supernatural: FAITH!
After reading the following verses, you will understand what I mean:
Matthew 17:20
“‘You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.’” (NLT)
Matthew 21:21-22
“Then Jesus told them, ’I tell you the truth, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you can do things like this and much more. You can even say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen.You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it.‘” (NLT)
John 14:12-14
” ‘I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!’ ” (NLT)
In my own battle against cancer, the verses you just read have been the fuel for my faith. The Bible tells us that “faith comes by hearing  the Word of God”. Where is your faith? Perhaps if you feel that do not have any, it may be an indication of that you are not infiltrating yourself with the Word of God.
I believe. I believe fully and whole-heartedly that I have been healed. The Bible says that
“NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].” (AMP) Oh how that verse puts fire in my spirit! I know, I have FAITH, that I am healed. That is the simplicity of God’s kingdom. We often look for logic and definitive explanation of circumstance. Jesus said that we must be “child-like” in order to enter into the kingdom of God.
Where is your faith today? Do you believe? Do you believe in the Word of God? I encourage you to realize that the kingdom of God is simple. The answer to your problem is already available. Have faith and SPEAK to the mountain. Having faith does not mean ignoring the problem. Instead, faith is the solution to the problem.
I know I am already completely healed and whole. It’s so simple. Its the simplicty of God’s Kingdom.
