Peter Roselle: Living Now in the Coming Kingdom of God (Matthew 6:10)
Peter speaks at King of Kings Worship Center on July 16, 2023.  Quotes: “The death and resurrection of Jesus marks the beginning of the end times. It is the idea that there are two stages here. When Jesus came, it started, but it's not going to finish it's not going to be fully consummated until His final return. So, what do we do in the meantime? We occupy until He comes. (Luke 19:13) We stay busy about the father's business. (Luke 2:49) We try to demonstrate miracles. (Acts 19:11) We try to do what the apostles did in the Book of Acts, and we try to go about the father's business. (John 4:34).”

But this helped me when I saw this little graphic
about these three stages that I already talked
about, that George talked about,
was the promise was the present age that we read
about in the Old Testament.
And then the between the times began with the life of Jesus
but not really during his life.
It only really started, the inauguration
of the kingdom happened when He came out of the grave.
We rightfully put a big emphasis
on the cross as we should, because without the cross,
He wouldn't have lived His life sinlessly.
He wouldn't have had the blood to bring to the mercy seat.
But without the resurrection, He doesn't get to the mercy seat.
So the resurrection is the event including the cross,
they go together. And then that's when this new piece
that we're living in now begins, so that's the between the times.
And then the final return will be when it's consummated.
So bear with me for a minute, that right now we are still living
in this time that we're contending
for the knowledge of good and evil.
And that almost sounds too simple,
but I really would like you to just meditate on it
for a minute because that was the first sin in the garden. [Genesis 3]
The devil challenged them, and said,
"You can handle the knowledge of good and evil."
It was the one thing that God said,
you have everything else but that one. [tree]
And what did the devil do? He got them jealous.
He questioned the integrity of God.
Jesus comes and changes everything. 
His life changed everything.
Then His death, burial, resurrection,
and the descending of the Holy Spirit changes everything.
And I love this one. In that period, He said,
"I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." [Luke 10:18]
Talk about a mission statement!
When you see somebody get saved,
and we have several people here that are saved,
pretty recently saved. And it's not hard
for them to think back to how horrible the sin was.
And yet you look at them now,
and I see signs and I see wonders, right?
Dead things coming back to life again.
I believe there's about to be another resurrection.
Somebody here today, my experience, a resurrection
of a dead thing in your body coming back to life again,
a heart problem, blood vessels that aren't working right?
Who knows, you heard what Ken Fish said.
People's legs were growing out in the classroom.
So the death and resurrection of Jesus marks
the beginning of the end times, that's interesting, right?
Because end times, boy, there's a million books about the end times.
But it's just the idea that there are two stages here.
When Jesus came, it started, but it's not going to finish,
It's not going to be fully consummated until His final return.
So, what do we do in the meantime? 
We occupy until He comes. (Luke 19:13)
We stay busy about the father's business. (Luke 2:49)
We try to demonstrate miracles. (Acts 19:11)
We try to do what the apostles did in the Book of Acts,
we try to go about the father's business. (John 4:34)
Are we great at it? No, probably not. Are we fully qualified?
No. But who said that we're supposed to be?
In fact it says right in there,
it's "to show the world that it's not about your gifts,
it's about the greatness of God in you." [2 Corinthians 4:7]
So there really is a very big humbling process that happens
as a Christian. We have made a prayer ministry available
for anybody who wants it.
And if you're in that prayer ministry room,
it could be pretty humbling.
But why not just pull apart some
of those structures that you were leaning on
that were not from God?
That's what it says in the Book of Hebrews [12:1]
"Let us lay aside the weights that are slowing us down."
A ministry session is really just there
to help us see what are the weights that are holding you back!
What are the things you believe that are not godly.
What got planted into your spirit
that isn't in agreement with the Word of God.
Break the hold of that thing, break the lie.
