Matthew 11:12 AKJV
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
The violence that Jesus is talking about here is not the physical violence and force where you go around physically assaulting others and taking things by force Royal. There has to be a warrior inside you with childlike faith when it comes to the things that concern the Kingdom of God. #GrowWithin
The violence and force that is talked about is your intensity and eagerness to possess what is in the kingdom of God that has been freely given to you that the devil tries to stop you from getting them. That means you must have the audacity and courage to say no to laziness, fleshly desires, and anything that is not of God that tries to hinder and stop you from advancing in the Kingdom of God. #RefuseToFail
There is everything beautiful in the Kingdom of God though it is given to you for free you have a role to play too like listening and obeying the word of God e.g praying, giving, preaching, putting your faith to work, etc but when the enemy comes with different strategies of challenges to stop you from doing all these things you got to take it by force. You say “I don't care how I feel I will pray, I will read my Bible, I will go to church, I will preach, I will run my business, I will do my part,” and guess what when you act you surely get results and that means you have taken it by force. #TakeItByForce
