Why do we as Christians think that when thing around us looks so chaotic that we step into the old mindset of The World Is Coming To An End, so get ready! And the rapture will happen and give dates and things they predict NEVER come to pass. We think that the devil is in control, yet we fail to proclaim the truth that he was stripped of ALL authority, and Jesus is the one who did it.
We are like the children of Israel who were told to go in and possess the land, and they failed to do so, so God had them walk around the wilderness for 40 years until the disobedient generation all died off. Why did they fail to go in, because there were giants in the land. This was the sad state of Israel, and sadder still it is the state of the church that waits fro their DUNKIRK moment to get out of here, BUT Christ Jesus our King is waiting for us to arise and do a warfare against God’s enemies, and pull those supposed giants down and possess the earth which is His, firstly by His creating it, and secondly by His redeeming power because of His obedience all He created that was temporarily lost by Adam I through his disobedience.
Paul tells us in 2 Cor 10 :1-5 which is what we call our warfare passage, but is completely dependent upon v 6 where we are told we will have the power to revenge disobedience WHEN our obedience is fulfilled.
When we want to have a pity party because things look so bad in the world we must recognize the work of God and stop seeing it as a work of t he devil.
As the writer of the Hebrews declares; “Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this “ Yet once more”, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:” Hebrews 12:26-28
The writer is simply saying that God is always in the process of shaking all things so that all that will remain is The Kingdom. When we get fixated on everything we think is wrong in our country, in our families even in our own lives, we are focused on the wrong thing. Even as I am writing this I see the revelation Paul says when He say’s praise God in all things, because God is shaking everything.
What does our government do when things are wrong? Yep they spend more money, because they ‘know’ that what is wrong is not enough money. That my friends is the height of insanity, “doing things the same way and when it does not work, throw more money at it.” When does it stop? Never? How are we going to pay for it?, answer we kick the can down the road, which really means, to the next generations after all we spend their inheritance, so let it be their problem. Really is that what we think of our children and their children? They are supposed to be our heritage, some heritage, selling them into economic slavery of government handouts.
Jesus said: Seek first the Kingdom of God and His, The Kingdom’s King, righteousness, and ALL that mankind seeks after will be added to you. When we understand we were born, not by accident, not to just fill space on the earth, but for a purpose, a kingdom assignment which is to be our life’s work, to bring Glory to God who gave us life. Even the tests and trials we go through are to help us to realize or get a revelation of what really is truly valuable to us, or to reveal our heart.
The Word tells us this; the Jesus became poor, why? Not to glorify poverty which is the curse of sin, He became poor for a reason and a season, and when He died, rose again and ascended to His throne in heaven he became the possessor again of all things. So why did He become poor? To show us that He need nothing of this worlds goods to do the Father’s will, He just simply obeyed, saying what heard Father tell Him to say, going to where He saw the Father go, and doing what He saw the Father do, nothing more nothing less.
I get so frustrated when I hear someone say that the devil is doing this or that the devil is getting mad because he knows his time is nearly over, why because the devils time is NOT nearly over it was over 2000 years ago. When we think or say things like that we really miss the true understanding of what Jesus has done and finished. Let me repeat the devils time is not short, IT IS OVER, because the scripture says so. To think he is still operating with any authority is simple deception, and rejecting the authority of God’s Word and the Victory of the Word made flesh.
The real issue is this, Jesus said that the devil is under His feet, 1 Cor 15:25, 27, Eph 1:2 Heb 2:8, then Paul in his message to all hose who came at his request to establish a church in Rome, Rom 16, tells them that God will crush Satan under your feet shorty. This whilst speaking of a particular time and audience transcends all time generations that as we walk in obedience to Him He will crush the enemy under our feet if we walk in obedience and walk in dominion shortly.
This is what Psalm 149 speaks of when it says that we are to enforce His victory, and that means to continue to speak His defeat by Christ Jesus our King and Lord.
Is it any wonder we are told to rejoice when things around us are being shaken, so that all that will remain is His Kingdom, does not depend on Him coming back to bring His Kingdom, rather it depends on us understanding that He established His Kingdom at His first coming, defeated the strongman, and left us with Holy Spirit through whom we can not only do the works that Jesus did, but IF WE BELIEVE we can do far greater than He, because greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world, meaning anyone who is living in and by the worlds system, so we can walk out the Kingdom in this life where God has placed us.
Now the question is, what is the Kingdom of God? I believe I can help you with understanding what the kingdom is because God gave it to me back in 1984 to be my life study and life message, and many have shared how it has impacted their lives because of what I have taught them.
