The Keys Of The Kingdom
Calvary greetings to God's people. How are we enjoying God's grace and love and hope we bouncing in the Lord also.
I bring you divine message from the throne of grace, it's a message that will enrich your inner being and soul. But before we start let's say a little word of prayer.
Oh Lord our God, bless your word in our heart as we go through it, in Jesus name we have pray, Amen.
Our first scriptural reading will be taken from St. Matt. 16:19
And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

The keys of the kingdom are God's authority to the apostles and to every believer who has accepted Jesus as Lord and personal Saviour. With these keys (the Name of Jesus and blood of Jesus and every spoken word against satan the devil and his cohorts) the believer is able to bind demons and to set at liberty those held in captivity by the enemy. The keys also represent the believers' authority to proclaim the gospel of salvation to the perishing world. It is pertinent to know that nobody can receive or exercise this key except he has truly given his life to Jesus Christ.

The seven sons of Sceva tried to emulate Paul by using the name Jesus to cast out demons but the demons got hold of them and injured them because they had not given their lives to Jesus and so they could not be given the keys to operate in that capacity (Acts 19:13-16). These sons of Sceva may have been church goers but the keys are not for mere church goers. Your qualification for the keys is to be born again. With this qualification you can either bind or loose anything on earth and it will be established in heaven.
In that same St. Matt. 18:18 "Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."

It was made known to us that the keys of the kingdom of heaven are given to those who have truly given their lives to Christ and not for mere church goers. The kingdom of heaven is righteousness, peace, joy and all good and perfect gifts. Since nothing evil can be found in God's kngdom, believers have the keys to access their blessings in heaven. But it is typical of the devil to make sure that children of God do not enjoy the life of bliss God has prepared for them. Therefore God has given the believers keys to unlock their blessings held by the devil and to declare it unlawful for him to withhold them. Our bible text says, whatever we bind on earth is bound in heaven and whatever we loose on earth is loosed in heaven. Because we are children of God (Jn.1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name"), we are entitled to those things in heaven, i.e. good health, wealth, riches, prosperity and abundant life. So when poverty, sickness, barrenness, etc come your way, use your key to declare it unlawful to dwell in our life. Bind them and they will be bound in heaven. Also in the same vein when satan steals your joy and other blessings, you have the right and the key to loose your blessing from his grips and command them upon your life. Beloved, use your key! Begin to recall all that satan has stolen and locked in your life and use your key to open all locked doors and declare your blessings to come forth and begin to manifest in Jesus name, Amen.

Those who have given their life to Christ should always be ready to accept him in truthband in spirit and they should be ready to follow him and do what he wanted by walking towards his paths and working for him with all our heart
God bless you for your contribution. Christians should always follow Jesus at all time
“The keys of the Kingdom,” sometimes called “the keys to the kingdom,” represent the authority to open the way for people to “enter into the Kingdom of God.” (Matthew 16:19; The New American Bible; Acts 14:22) * Jesus gave Peter “the keys of the Kingdom of the heavens.” This means that Peter received the authority to unlock information about how faithful people, by receiving God’s holy spirit, could enjoy the privilege of entering the Kingdom in heaven.
Hmmmm... Scripture simplified... Thanks for this, God bless..
Jesus gave Peter “the keys of the Kingdom of the heavens.”. This means that Peter received the authority to unlock information about receiving God’s holy spirit.
"The keys of the Kingdom," here and there called "the keys to the kingdom," speak to the specialist to open the path for individuals to "go into the Kingdom of God." (Matthew 16:19; The New American Bible; Acts 14:22) * Jesus gave Peter "the keys of the Kingdom of the sky." This implies Peter got the expert to open data about how dedicated individuals, by accepting God's blessed soul, could appreciate the benefit of entering the Kingdom in paradise.
Very true brother Joshua. Whatever is established on the earth it is established in the heavens. And the way to inherit this is by authority thanks for sharing

Wonderful writeup Joshua. We need to keep on serving God reliable in order to profit by his great game plans for us to appreciate a wonderful life. A debt of gratitude is in order for sharing.
The keys of the kingdom are God's power to the witnesses and to each adherent who has acknowledged Jesus as Lord and individual Savior. With these keys the devotee can tie evil presences and to set at freedom those held in bondage by the adversary. The keys additionally speak to the devotees' power to declare the good news of salvation to the dying scene. It is applicable to realize that no one can get or practice this key aside from he has genuinely given his life to Jesus Christ.
