Jesus is also called Immanuel, which literally means "God is with us." This was prophesized by Isaiah, the prophet. Jesus was God in the flesh; God dwelled among us (John 1:14). Jesus is the Kingdom of God embodied, and the Kingdom of God is in believers. In Luke 17:20-21, it recorded Jesus said the Kingdom of God is within us. "Being asked by the Pharisees when God's Kingdom would come, he answered them, "God's Kingdom doesn't come with observation; neither will they say, 'Look, here!' or, 'Look, there!' for behold, God’s Kingdom is within you.” Today, Jesus is present in the life of every believer through the Holy Spirit. Are we saved? Surely yes! Jesus is with us and in us.

"Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." - Isaiah 7:14 (ESV)

"Thank you, Jesus Lord, for your presence in our lives to assure our salvation in You alone. We are a citizen of the Kingdom of God on earth today; we will meet you when you come again. In your name, I pray, Amen."
