And I say also unto thee, That<br>thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail<br>against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou<br>shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.\u201d Matthew 16:16-19<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I was young in the Lord, I was waiting for God to show me something powerful! Maybe<br>He would open up the skies and explode into my life with an earthshaking revelation that will<br>solve all my problems, answer all my questions, and meet all my needs. Yet, the scriptures tell us<br>that it is the little things that mean big things to the heart of the Father. Jesus said, \u201cHe that is<br>faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much\u2026\u201d Lk.16:10. So, God starts us with small things, and if we\u2019re faithful with those, He gives us more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a foundation for every new step in the life of a believer. And that foundation is Jesus.<br>We find out more about Him with every new glimmer of light. One day, the Father revealed to<br>Peter who Jesus was. And that revelation brought the Blessing into his life, a new identity, and it provided him with the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God didn\u2019t split the skies open, He didn\u2019t part the clouds, or come charging down in a white<br>horse with trumpets blaring! He simply revealed to Peter, who Jesus was, and it changed his life forever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you analyze it, Peter received nothing more than you and I did. When we realized who Jesus<br>was and confessed Him as our Lord and Savior, we were born into the family of God. That was<br>when we became a living member of the body of Christ! Like Peter, we were given a new identity<br>in Christ, we received the Blessing of God, and the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. All given to us as heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the question remains, What was the last thing God revealed to you? Don\u2019t wait for the clouds<br>to part and Jesus to appear to you. Take what He\u2019s already given you and run with it! You have the Keys of the Kingdom!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Love,<br>Pastor Tom<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-fc79ac6a1d9a5cfce684f9beaa36b9ee\"><br>Kingdom Business is Eternal, as are the rewards that come from God.
