“Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions, and give to the needy.” Luke 12:32-33, ESV. After Jesus taught that the Father will provide our basic needs if we seek his kingdom first, then he says that it brings the Father pleasure to give us the kingdom. God enjoys giving us his kingdom. The “kingdom” is the realm where God’s goodness reigns, which we possess in part now and will fully inherit in the next age. And the Father does not give it grudgingly; he does not make it unreasonably difficult. God enjoys giving; he wants to see us blessed. He wants to guide us to the New Earth where there is no pain or corruption anymore. Therefore, we do not need to fear. God enjoys giving us all good things. In fact, if you have wealth then sell your possessions and give to the needy. This will produce eternal wealth and you will never regret it.
Do you think God enjoys giving you good things? Are you looking forward to God giving you the full kingdom of God?
