Awake Church Podcast

Jesus didn't heal to prove He had power, but because He loves people. He still loves and He still heals. In this message, Matt shares about the nature of God to heal, talks about some of the hindrances to healing and then two powerful testimonies from others about how Jesus healed them.

Matt concludes this four part series on the Kingdom of Heaven by highlighting the permeating nature of the Kingdom and practically how we are to view ourselves as carriers and agents of the Kingdom of Heaven, finding ways to allow it to saturate our beings, our businesses, our words and our thinking.

The Kingdom of Heaven is the domain and rule of Jesus that He initiated when He was here and gave us to spread while He is temporarily in heaven. This Kingdom is robust, filled with power, love, joy and peace that brings satisfaction for every heart. The marvelous Kingdom of Heaven is to be sought after, received, proclaimed, demonstrated and prayed.

The Kingdom of Heaven is to be the most sought after thing in our lives, and every failure of believers pursuing and sharing the kingdom has created a vacuum that has been filled with counterfeit "ism's" (socialism, communism, fascism, even capitalism). The Kingdom of Heaven is the invasion of the realm of the King, who is Jesus, and it is meant to fully invade every aspect of life, not be compartmentalized into a church experience.
