Keys

– Pastor Rusty – Jan. 27th, 2026

“I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be d bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be e loosed in heaven.” Matt. 16:19

There are keys revealed in the word of God that allows the believer access into the heavenly realm. They give you insight and instruction on how to access the kingdom. They are overlooked for the most part because people are looking for something mystical instead “seeing by the Spirit” that the word of God provides “thura” (doors or portals) by which we gain entrance.

“I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture,” Jn. 10:9

John 10:9 clearly states Jesus is the “thura” by which we can come and go from pen to pasture. Again, He’s not referencing “going to heaven when you die” philosophy, but rather how to move from places of protection to feeding grounds. Many believers cannot make this transition and simply get stuck in the pen. The key in this parable is “hearing the shepherd’s voice”. Learning to follow the voice of the shepherd is a 🔑 key to the kingdom.🧐 (also key to feeding).

Another key 🔑 is experiencing New Birth. (Note I said experiencing New Birth, not understanding New Birth).🤔 Jesus said, “You must be born again!”

“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Jn. 3:3.

Notice that Jesus said, “You cannot see the kingdom”… He’s not talking about dying and going home to be with the Lord, but rather that true New Birth effects your ability to “see” the kingdom.🤔

Our mentality that we are only to experience these things after we die has impeded the ability of the Ekklesia to ACCESS these things in the now. The modern church has placed little value on possessing the keys or accessing what is available to the believer.

Another key is Ephesians 2:8. It reveals the avenue by which all things are accessed. “For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God.” Everything you receive from God will come through this simple format, His grace making it available, your faith appropriating it. This format reveals the exact process by which you access healing, deliverance, salvation and any other operation released from the Father. Grace makes it available, faith positions you to receive it. You can’t earn it, it is always made available by grace. 🔑

One more Key. “But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” James 4:6.

James 4:6 is a key 🔑. It reveals a kingdom rule that will not be broken. God resist the proud… when? ALWAYS! He always resist the proud… it is a polarizing characteristic of fallen nature that constantly prohibits you from positioning yourself to being able to receive anything from the Lord.🤔 And I mean anything. Humility on the other hand is the frequency of grace.🤔 It allows you to properly position yourself to receive healing, nourishment, and blessing from the Father. It becomes a kingdom principle 🔑 that is equal to Eph. 2:8. When looking for keys to the kingdom, time and again the Holy Spirit navigates you back to what already has been spoken… the word of God. Think on these things. 🤔 and happy hunting.
