Genesis 2:7-87 And the Lord  God formed man of the dust of theground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;and man became a living soul.8 And the Lord  God planted a garden eastward in Eden;and there he put the man whom he had formed.

God is creatorJesus Is redeemerThe Holy Spirit is sustainerWe see the spirit of God in creation giving life tomankind.We see the spirit in the conception and birth of JesusChrist, and restoring the kingdom.We see the Holy Spirit restoring the nature of God andbirthing the new creation, the Godkind.One of the greatest problems of the church is theirmisunderstanding of the purpose and role of the HolySpirit.The Holy Spirit gives birth to the God nature, it’s calledthe new birth and Jesus makes it clear in the scripture.

John 3:3-73 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say untothee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom ofGod.4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he isold? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, andbe born?5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man beborn of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdomof God.6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is bornof the Spirit is spirit.7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Without the assistance of the Holy spirit you cannot seethe kingdom.Many people are convinced that he is talking about seeingheaven, this is not what the text implies.Jesus says, “The kingdom of heaven is here, at hand, thykingdom come and thy will be done.”The problem is not finding the kingdom, it is seeing thekingdom. You can’t operate in a kingdom that you cannotsee.The Holy Spirit’s job is not only to make sure you are bornagain but also to see or have the kingdom revealed; orunderstand the mysteries of the kingdom. The kingdom isonly a mystery to those who do not see and understand it.

Many people who consider themselves Christians are stillsearching and looking for the kingdom. This means theyare still looking and searching for the Holy Spirit becauseone of the main purposes of the Holy Spirit is to show usthe kingdom, to open your spirit eyes and reveal thekingdom.

Luke 17:20-2120 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, whenthe kingdom of God should come, he answered them andsaid, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for,behold, the kingdom of God is within you. answered theLORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hathwill he give for his life.

The disciples are asking the same question. ManyChristians are asking today, when is the kingdom coming?The answer is, it is already here. So, if the Christian hasthe Holy Spirit, why don’t they know that the kingdomdoes not come with observation but that the Kingdom ofGod is within us.If the kingdom is inside of us and the Holy Spirit revealsthe kingdom, and if we have access to the benefits of thekingdom, why are we still ignorant of what it is that Godhas already done for us?If we really have the kingdom inside us then everythingwe need is inside us. Why are we still searching for whatwe need in places, people, and things?

Many Christians are looking for God everywhere butwithin and it might be because they don’t have the HolySpirit, they have a feeling, an experience, an encounterbut not a birth.Many of us think the Holy Spirit reveals himself in thedance, in emotion, in a feeling, in a praise.What good is a good shout when you are shouting in thedark?We should not dance out of emotion, out of feelings, outof duty. If we are going to dance it ought to be based onwhat has been revealed.I got to have knowledge and revelation of what’s workingon the inside of me.

If I want God’s kingdom to manifest in my life, I mustknow what I’m working with.If I want real favor, real success, real power I must knowwhere the real power is.I must know what I need is already on the inside and Ialready have it, I just have to learn how to use it.We have to know, based on the eternal word of God, thateverything we need is right on the inside of the last placewe looked, and that’s within ourselves.

Romans 14:1717 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; butrighteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Colossians 1:27-2927 To whom God would make known what is the riches ofthe glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which isChrist in you, the hope of glory:28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teachingevery man in all wisdom; that we may present every manperfect in Christ Jesus:29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to hisworking, which worketh in me mightily.
