KINGDOM MINDED WITH NO REPUTATION
Those who are completely kingdom minded, are able maintain a life void of
offense! This is accomplished by serving only one master. You can't serve two
masters, "you cannot serve God and mammon". Matthew 6:24 because mammon is a
greedy master, he demands that you get all you can and can all you get. When
you serve this master you will easily take up offenses due to the internal
effect of greed! Greed is like a spiritual cancer, eating up every ounce of love
and compassion for others. More, is never enough, first of material things, then
of power and reputation.
Reputation is the deep thing in the world of darkness, and it is the last
thing to go, when you come into the light of My kingdom. It is the internal core
of mammon and when it is laid down for My sake, you become impossible to offend.
At this point you have My mind and become kingdom minded. You must "let the
kingdom mind be in you, which was also in Me: [6] I was in the form of God, and
was equal with God: [7] But made Myself of no reputation, I laid down My God
reputation, and took upon Myself the form of a servant, and was made in your
likeness:" Philippians 2:5-7
The moment Adam sinned, he lost his god likeness reputation and became an
involuntary slave of satan, to serve sin. It was necessary that I lay down My
God reputation, to come down and rescue you. Adam's kingdom reputation was
stolen, so I had to lay Mine down, to get it for back for him and you his
descendant. However while you were in darkness, you have acquired a worldly
reputation, that means more than life itself to many people. It does not matter
what it is, it is your security blanket, and you will defend it to the death.
Reputations will range from the baddest guy in town, to the greatest guy in town
and it will be vigorously defended.
The truth is, every human is no more than a servant, either a servant of
sin or of righteousness. When you move to My kingdom you are to still maintain
the same position of servant, but in My kingdom of light it's voluntary. The way
up to the top in My kingdom is down, voluntarily becoming of no reputation, so
when you are able to handle it, I can lift you up. "Verily I say unto you,
Except you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter My
kingdom. [4] Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the
same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3-4 KJV
If you are a christian and still worried about your reputation and what
people think about you, mammon still has a hold on you, and you are not free to
be kingdom minded yet! Seek Me with your whole heart until, your house, your
car, your money, position, and most important, your reputation, mean nothing to
you! "He
that is greatest among you shall be your servant. [12] And whosoever shall exalt
himself shall be abased; but he that will voluntarily humble himself shall be
exalted". Matthew 23:11-12
