Text: But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Heb 1:8
Last week, I shared with you that the LORD showed me how that the value of righteousness will increase this year. It will so obvious that the right path will attract many. Let us examine this in the light of the text for this week.
Scepter is the sign of the authority of a king and the scepter of the kingdom of God is righteousness. As we approach the end of this age, the reality of the kingdom of God will increase as a result of the preaching of the gospel of the kingdom in all tribes, tongue and kindred. One of the ways that this will play out is the promotion of righteous ways. This means that the kingdom of God is closer to us than it used to be.
Righteousness is a gift from God and also a weapon with man. Through righteousness, we can bring down authorities that do not align with the kingdom of God. Structures that have been established through corrupt ways will crumble and the new ones will arise according to the order of Zion.
The tower of babel is a classic example of a structure that was established out of corrupt ways and the LORD took it upon Himself to demolish the structure so that His plans will come to pass. The same will begin to happen in our days. Structure that have been built after the order of Babylon will crumble.
I urge you again to place righteous ways as your value. Integrity must be one of your watchwords in 2019
Have a great week

It sent a shock wave round the world. The October 7, 2023 attacks kick-started a war that has escalated to involve Lebanon, Syria, Qatar and Iran. Israel has gone all out attacking Palestine in a wave that many world leaders have been cautioning them to consider the civilians. ORIGIN OF THE WAR The origin of the war in the middle east can be traced back to the 1920s when Britain, in conjunction with the Arabs defeated the Ottoman military in Jerusalem and took the city as a colony of the British royalty. It wasn't long before the British decided to release the land to the Arabs that fought alongside them. But, there was another set of ...
