Pray then like this: \\u201cOur Father in heaven, hallowed be\\xa0your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us\\xa0this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And\\xa0lead us not into temptation,\\xa0but\\xa0deliver us from\\xa0evil.
Matthew 6:9-13 (ESV)

He told them another parable:\\xa0\\u201cThe kingdom of heaven is like\\xa0a mustard seed,\\xa0which a man took and planted in his field.\\xa0Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.\\u201d He told them still another parable:\\xa0\\u201cThe kingdom of heaven is like\\xa0yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds of flour\\xa0until it worked all through the dough.\\u201d Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.\\xa035\\xa0So was fulfilled\\xa0what was spoken through the prophet: \\u201cI will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.\\u201d

Matthew 13:31-35 (NIV)

  1. He moves \\u201cslowly\\u201d

But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.\\xa0The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise,\\xa0as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient\\xa0with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:8-9 (NIV)

  1. He works in the unseen
  2. He redeems from the inside out

Where do you want to see Kingdom Redemption in your life?

  1. Invite God\\u2019s unseen work in the area.
  2. Know that God has more than likely been working there long before you desired it.
  3. See where you can be a part of planting seed and mixing yeast.
  4. Rest easy knowing that time and God\\u2019s faithfulness will produce.
