Psalm 145:11-13

The Eternal Kingdom - Preaching Preaching Outline on Psalm 145:11-13 - They will speak of the glory of your kingdom and tell of your power, that they may make known to the sons of men your exploits and the glory of the magnificence of your kingdom.Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom; your dominion extends to all generations. Introduction to Psalm 145:11-13 Psalm 145 is a song of praise to the Lord, extolling his excellence, goodness and sovereignty. In verses 11-13, the psalmist emphasizes the church's mission to proclaim the Gospel of the everlasting Kingdom. This kingdom does not belong to this passing world, but to eternity, where God rules supreme. Today, we want to reflect on "The Eternal Kingdom", understanding its nature, importance and how it should be the central focus of Christian life. God has called the church to announce this kingdom, access to which is only possible through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Development The Church's call Proclaiming the Kingdom The psalmist declares: "They shall speak of the glory of your empire and tell of your power." This is the mission of the church in this world: to proclaim the eternal Gospel, which points to the Kingdom of God. Unfortunately, too often the gospel preached today is limited to the temporal blessings of this life - prosperity, health or material success. However, the true gospel goes beyond that: it speaks of a kingdom that will not pass away, where God reigns in justice and peace. Those who have their eyes fixed on the Kingdom of God find meaning and purpose in life. As Hebrews 11:16 says, "They desired a better country, that is, a heavenly one." The hope of the Kingdom transforms the human heart, enabling it to face the adversities of this world with unshakeable faith. This message requires the deepest understanding, where the Spirit reveals what is beyond what the eye can see. When the heavenly truth is unveiled, one realizes that this earthly journey is fleeting in the face of eternity. Divine deeds Man's supreme achievement The psalm mentions "your exploits". These are extraordinary deeds, worthy of admiration. For man, the greatest is redemption through Jesus Christ. Salvation is not a free gift; it is the result of a perfect design fulfilled at Calvary. Romans 5:8 says "God proves his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died in our place". Thanks to God's great love, he not only cleanses us from sin, but also makes us worthy of our heavenly inheritance. Through the shedding of Jesus' Blood, we are reconciled to God and heirs of His kingdom (Revelation 1:5-6). By preaching about the Kingdom of God, the church demonstrates God's transforming power. It shows the world that there is hope for the discouraged and fragile. The essence of the Kingdom An eternal kingdom The psalmist declares: "Your kingdom is a kingdom that has no end". Unlike human kingdoms, which are fleeting and subject to depravity, the Kingdom of God is invariable and everlasting. It transcends time and space, existing forever and enduring forever. This world is full of transitory kingdoms: governments, empires and systems that will fall apart over time. However, the Kingdom of God is different. It does not depend on human structures, since its sovereignty is divine. Revelation 11:15 prophesies: "The kingdom of this world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign forever." The church's priority must be to seek this Kingdom. Jesus taught in Matthew 6:33: "Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." When we put the Kingdom as our main objective, our priorities change. We put aside our desire for earthly treasures and turn our attention to heavenly ones (Matthew 6:19-20). The psalmist concludes: "His dominion spans all ages." From Adam to the present day, God has been manifesting his dominion over human history. Even in the face of the greatest struggles and persecutions, the Kingdom of God perseveres steadfastly. Throughout the centuries, we find examples of men and women who have remained faithful to the Lord, despite the pressure. Despite the enemy's attempts to destroy the church, it continued to grow and proclaim the Gospel. This was because the church kept the blood of Jesus and remained anchored in the Word of God (Revelation 12:11). Just as God used the saints of the past to preserve the faith, he calls us today to continue this work. We must be lights in the world, pointing others to the eternal Kingdom. The believer's hope The heavenly prize There is nothing more precious in what man can achieve on his journey through life than the promise of the Kingdom of God. While the treasures of this world are transitory, heavenly treasures are imperishable. In Colossians 3:2, we are exhorted to "set your sights on things above, not on things on the earth". The certainty of the Kingdom sustains the believer even in the midst of trials. When we face storms, we remember that they are momentary and light compared to the eternal glory that awaits us, as versed in 2 Corinthians 4:17-18. The Lord wants to give this Kingdom to all those who trust in him. In Luke 12:32, Jesus said: "Do not be afraid, little flock, for it has pleased your Father to give you the kingdom". This promise applies to each and every one of us. Conclusion of Psalm 145:11-13 The eternal Kingdom is the core of the Gospel message. It represents the consummation of redemption, where God will dwell eternally with His people. The church has been called to proclaim this truth, announcing the wonders of God and the glory of His kingdom. May we, as a faithful church, keep our eyes fixed on the eternal Kingdom. May our lives be marked by a constant search for God and the proclamation of the Gospel that transforms lives. May we remember that while this world passes away, the Kingdom of God remains forever.
