Thy Kingdom Come! The world have now entered the last days as prophesy by Christ in Matthews chapter 24 and St. Luke chapter 21. The Kingdom of God is a spiritual Realm. We as citizens of the Kingdom of God are engaged in a lifetime mortal combat with the forces of evil. " We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12. First, there must be an understanding of the revelation knowledge of the Kingdom. What the Kingdom is, where it is , who rules and reigns in the Kingdom ? What relationship is the Kingdom and the Church. Second, The Kingdom of God in us as believers is a living Faith in Jesus Christ that produces the likeness of Christ in us , His Church.
The Kingdom of God is the sovereign of the Universe. Christ is absolute Sovereign of the Kingdom of God and He rules and reigns from His throne in the Kingdom. Declaring The King of the Kingdom is the Gospel Message for this hour. The message of the Kingdom of God and the Church is to proclaimed The Kingdom of God and give the call to repentance. Christ sent the church out with the same message He preached and gave power to them power over demons and power to heal the sick. When Christ was resurrected we do not hear Him saying " The Kingdom of God is postponed " but on the contrary He said, " OUGHT not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory ? " Luke 24:26 The King of Kings; When we accept the purpose for which Christ came into the world, namely to destroy the works of the devils, it is easy to grasp the meaning of His words when said, " My Kingdom is not of this this world." John 18:36 Jesus said, " The kingdom of God cometh not with observation....the kingdom of God is within you. " Luke 17: 20, 21. Christ is now " invisible " but He is our " Eternal King. " His coronation took place when He returned to heaven to take His place at the right hand of God, saying " ALL power is given unto Me in heaven and earth." That power can never be thwarted or postponed by man; nor will it cease to be. It is the power of Almighty God who does all things after the counsel of His own will. The eternal kingship crowned our Savior's victory.
The Kingdom of God must come to bring world order and peace ! We are now in the days of the prophecies of the kingdom of God. Have you often wondered why man have been unable to launch an everlasting kingdom upon this earth ? All man efforts have always failed. THE KINGDOM IS OF GOD AND NOT OF MAN. It is God's Kingdom. It is His Kingdom that will rule and reign for ever! Christ gave us words in prayer to pray, "Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be Done." |
