What Happens When God Gets Close To You?

Have you ever considered that your spiritual journey wasn't something you initiated? That perhaps God was pursuing you long before you even recognized it? This profound reality forms the foundation of our exploration into what lies beyond the basic gospel message.

The cross—that ancient instrument of torture and humiliation—serves as more than just a symbol of sacrifice. It represents the divine paradox where absolute weakness becomes the birthplace of ultimate power. Jesus, in his most vulnerable state—bloodied, mocked, and dying—defeated death itself. But this victory was never meant to be the end of the story.

Many Christians stop at the cross, content with salvation but missing the fullness of what follows. Resurrection life. Ascension authority. The privilege of functioning as citizens of God's Kingdom with real spiritual power and purpose. Throughout the New Testament, particularly in Paul's epistles, we find detailed instructions for living in this elevated reality—not someday in heaven, but right now in our everyday lives.

God is progressively unfolding His plan across nations and within our hearts. What was once mysterious is becoming clear. We're being invited to mature beyond spiritual milk to meat, beyond religious rituals to relationship, beyond cross to crown. This generation has access to one of history's greatest displays of God's presence and glory, if we'll only recognize and step into it.

Ready to discover what it means to be seated with Christ in heavenly places? To make declarations that transform reality? To grow up before you grow old? Let's journey together beyond the cross into the fullness of Kingdom life and authority.
