One of God's greatest desires is for us to have balance and stability in our lives.  We have seen how important it is to stay focused on God's kingdom and live within it.  When we don't live within God's kingdom or understand it, we compromise living under the provision, favor, and grace that God offers.    Today I'm going to share a couple different resources with you that give you specific kingdom values and when we are living within these values we'll experience more of God's presence and direction in our lives.  

The two books I'll reference are, "The Practice of Godliness" by Jerry Bridges and "Toward a Deeper Walk" by Marcus Warner.    Each resource gives 3 unique perspectives on God's kingdom and I'll share with you the significance of the number 3 in Scripture and why I think it's a great illustration of what God kingdom's is like.
