Once we are born again, the spirit of God lives in us and so is God's kingdom. We are made right with God through the blood of Jesus and we are to live a clean and righteous life with the help of the Holy Spirit.
As we see that,
Romans 14:17 (NIV)
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
When we allow the Holy Spirit of God to reign and rule in us then we cannot practice any form of unrighteousness consciously or live a life displeasing God. For the Holy spirit Himself will be our sanctifier and Counselor who will lead and guide us, convicts us and correct us. Thus we will see as God's children we demonstrate a powerful life of God's Kingdom living in us.
Luke 17:20, 21 (NIV)
(v.20)...Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, (v.21)nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you."
Very rightly said, the kingdom of God is within us and the Holy Spirit prepares and continuously guides us to realise the kingdom of God in us.
