Doubt isn’t just a passive thing—it’s making choices all the time. It can decide what’s possible and what’s not, what can be expected and what won’t happen. Doubt looks at circumstances and builds walls, while faith looks at God’s promises and opens doors. In quantum physics, the observer effect demonstrates that our conscious awareness collapses the wave function, bringing a specific reality into existence. If human observation determines how energy takes form in the material world, how much more does the expectation of the heart determine what is established in the spiritual realm?

From the time Jesus appeared in Zebulun, the reign of God began to increase, and it has never stopped. Isaiah 9:7 assures us, 'Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end.' We are not waiting for His kingdom to begin—it is already advancing.

Jesus declared in Mark 1:15, 'The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand.' The kingdom is not shrinking; it is growing, transforming lives, and shaping history. As His image-bearers, we reflect heaven on earth, partnering with God in this unstoppable expansion.

So lift up your eyes. Have hope. Expect the increase. 'The increase of His government has no end!'

One of the biggest misconceptions about the kingdom of God is that it’s some distant, intangible place we will only experience after death. Many people have adopted a Gnostic-influenced theology that views this world as hopeless and beyond redemption, believing that life is just about enduring hardship until we finally escape to heaven. But Jesus taught something radically different.
