How can you let Jesus, the King of kings, reign in your life?
The kingdom of God is within us. On the day of our new birth, the Holy Spirit brings the life of God into us, and with it all the riches of the King of kings. His first work is to clean His house: the Holy Spirit works together with the Cross, so that the life we have received becomes our life and we carry the King wherever we go.
This message is for you if…
- you confess Jesus as King and you want Him to truly reign in your life
- you want to understand what you received at the new birth
- you want God to clean your inner life
Summary
Receiving Christ brings a new life within us. Are we allowing that life to shape the way we actually live? Beginning with Jesus' conversation with Pilate in John 18:33–37, Pastor Xutene Wanakaija reflects on the King of kings dwelling in the believer.
The message calls us to give Christ room to reign and let His life become our life. The Holy Spirit and the Cross work together in our inward cleansing and transformation. Wherever we go, we are called to honor His presence and care for the dwelling place that belongs to Him.
