Kingdom Affairs

Let’s begin from the Alpha

What is a Kingdom?

A Kingdom is a state, country or territory ruled or govern by a King or Queen. In this case we’ll be focusing on a King.

The Kingdom given 👇🌍

Genesis 1:26 shares God’s plan for man in the beginning. It says, “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” It was and still in God’s plan for man to have Earth as their kingdom, to be Lord and have dominion over it. To take care of it and glorify God.

The word tells us in Genesis 2:7-8 that God formed man out if dust and blew into him the breath of life, then he became a living soul. He also placed him in the garden, his kingdom here on Earth.
Here again in Genesis 1:28 and Genesis 2:18, the Lord blesses Adam, acknowledged that all He created was good but man was alone so He decided to give man a help meet; woman.

Kingdom Taken

The deception

In Genesis 3:1-6 lays a rather dangerous deception in which the enemy was able to steal the kingdom given to man. He said, “ye shall not surely die” as though referring to the physical though the two were literal based on the instruction God gave man. Death’s sting to the flesh became alive and likewise to the soul of man who has been separated from God in submission to the enemy.

Encouragement

Avoid finding yourself in a position of questioning God’s instructions. Don’t go looking for approval nor counseling from just about anyone whenever you do feel the need for clarification. Ask the Lord about whatever it is you need clarification on in prayer and seek the wise counsel of elders, authorized men of God by God. If not, you will be lead astray by those who use the word craftily as the enemy in disguise.

The scripture further went on to reveal that Satan told Eve that God knows that the day she eats of the tree her eyes will be opened and they shall be as gods knowing good and evil. Take note that Eve then saw that the tree was good for food, it was pleasant to the eyes and desired to make one wise.

Lemme break that down. Satan’s tactics do not change! He dangles the pride of life, lust of the eyes, the greed and lust of the flesh. God had already made man in His own image as we see in Genesis 1. Adam became a living soul into God where he lived without sin and free of death. He was already esteemed and blessed, even above angels. God visited him, he was royalty and God in this Earth having his own kingdom given to him by God. Kingdom citizens, you are called to know your position in the kingdom. Know who you are in Jesus Christ. Not everything you see with your eyes are good. Illusion is deceptive as the father of accompanying lies is, Satan himself. Be careful what you watch, be careful what you feed into your soul. A common school of thought says your eyes are a window to you soul. Be careful what you open your windows to! Not everything that glitters is gold. She thought it was good for food. Is your belly your God? When last have you even fasted and prayed? Will you allow the desires of your fleshly needs to overthrow the instructions God gave you. Are you purely desiring the finer things in this earthly life and have turned your backs on the word of God? Are we still falling for the tricks of the enemy since the beginning.

Did you know whomever you obey is your master? Where does your obedience lies? Romans 6 outlines this beautifully for us. Take a moment to read the chapter. 🙃

If you live in sin, obeying and doing the works of Satan you are governed by Him and you are not of God. Full stop. If you are governed by the devil you are in the kingdom of darkness and whatever is yours is now Satan’s own. Once you are a slave, whatever you have is for the master. In Luke 4:6 the word reveals that Satan said the kingdom of the earth are his and he will give it to whosever he pleases. He said it was delivered unto him. My question to you is, who gave him the kingdom? Answer: man gave it to him for God didn’t. It is through man’s obedience to the devil that he gained the kingdom that was given to man by God. Let that sink in for a bit.

Kingdom Reclaimed!

Another planned Trap.

Satan knowing that whomever obeys him becomes his slave and he gains their price possessions, tried the very same tricks with Jesus. His tactics did not change. Luke 4:6-7 states that Satan told Jesus all power and glory of the kingdom is his and he will give it to Jesus if He will worship him.

This is not coincidence. In Luke 19:10 Jesus said the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost! Hallelujah! A worthy mission indeed.

It was a legit temptation; telling hungry flesh to make bread out of stone and to bow for a kingdom He came for. Isn’t it? The devil’s intention isn’t to release you from his rulership without a fight. You gotta understand that there is a warfare going on no matter how calm your environment looks. Put on the full armor of God and stand on His side. Stand for the Kingdom of God. Come out from among darkness! Hallelujah! 🙌👏

Jesus’s response in Luke 4:8 is simple yet priceless. He said, “Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Brethren, the word of God is powerful! It is our sword in our mouths. Let us speak the word and rebuke the enemy when he rises up with his standards. Let him know it is written! Hallelujah!! Gloraaay! 🙌💃

Do you realize how loved we are? Do you realize by not bowing to Satan God kept us for Himself? Hallelujah! Do you realize what would have happened if Christ allowed the flesh to submit to Satan? We would have been lost with no hope for eternal life nor reinstatement in the Kingdom. He paid the ultimate price by sacrificing the flesh. He was our sacrificial lamb, more worthy than animal sacrifice in the earth which was commanded back in the days of slaying rams and doves for cleansing of sins.

Jesus Christ is Lord and He has a standard for the Kingdom. He said in Luke 5:32 that He came not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance. He has called sinners… slaves in Satan’s kingdom unto REPENTANCE. There has to be a change. He declares further in John 3:5 that except a man be born again he may, should not, probably won’t CANNOT enter into the Kingdom of God. You have to put the life you had in the kingdom of darkness to death before you can be born again and this time into the Kingdom of God. That which is of the flesh cannot enter the Kingdom but that which of the spirit can.

Children of God isn’t just human. Hu-man means dust man. Hu means dust, taken from the earth. As believers if we accept the common saying that “I am just human” we will continue to live in sin and deny the power of God in us. We will give the enemy a foot hold to continue provoking us unto sin which ultimately means we serve him. Can’t you see the trickery? God said in Genesis 3:14 the serpent shall eat dust all the days of its life. Isaiah 65:25 declares dust shall be the serpent’s food. It is a spiritual curse also. Satan feed off dust. Humans are made from dust and dust is flesh. You cannot rely on your flesh to serve God. Come on now! It is in the flesh that the tricks of the devil continue to be alive. Kill flesh and live unto God by the Holy Spirit.

As I close today’s post I want to encourage you to be a city upon a hill that cannot be hid, a light in the room that shines regardless of who is inside that room and salt of the earth regardless of how small in quantity you are. Salt does not lose its taste even when small in quantity. Put on the full armor of God and doing all, stand.

I cover this post with the blood of Jesus Christ and cancel every backlash of the enemy, cutting it down from the root! I bind up evey force of darkness and render them powerless before me right now, in Jesus name. I burn up every alter that has been created physically and spiritually against this ministry and I bring into captivity now every thoughts, feelings, opinions and views that will seek to exalt itself against the word of God. I bring into subjection the fowls of the air that will attempt to steal the word from the grounds it will be sown on. They will not prosper but be as chaff before the wind. The angels of the Lord will chase them on. Amen God bless you, in Jesus name. 😇

Until next time, seek good.

Yours truly,
