In Colossians 1:13 we read "For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son". We often talk about "Kingdom", and "the Kingdom of God", but what does it mean and how does it affect us as children of God? The Kingdom of God is the fulfilment of God's will on earth. We know this because Jesus prayed - "your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." (Matthew 6:10) In other words, it is His will to bring heaven to earth. For all of us we have the ability to get off this planet, to be free from the past, and the issues that so easily pull us off track. We are all ready for launch!
