Kingdom of God

What is it

It is a dominion over which a king reigns. Saudi Arabia is a kingdom. It is a land over which a king reigns.

An example is King Charles, the king of England. My generation knew him as Prince Charles.

Lots of people are confused about the kingdom of God.

The Kingdom has its own government. Its own army. It has an economy. Administration. It is governed by laws. It has representation, for example, Jesus is called a high priest forever. It has a throne room and an altar. It has a sacrifice. Jesus the Lamb of God!

Jesus said, It is then Father’s good pleasure to give us the kingdom. But what does the kingdom mean? What advantage is it adding to your life if you don’t understand its meaning?

Early believers understood the significance of the kingdom. They asked Jesus, “… Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?” Acts 1:6

The apostle Paul stated in 1 Corinthians 4:19-20,

“But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power. For the kingdom of God is not in word, but power.”

He also shared in Romans 14:17, “For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.”

So many Christians are living way beneath their privileges. They could be healed, but they look to the medical establishment.

Even if the medical establishment is easy to access for healing, give faith a try. It’s about learning and developing. This is what the disciples did when they walked with Jesus.
