LET’S TALK
In our previous study, we learnt about the Kingdom of heaven and how its purpose is to establish the Kingdom of God in the earth. Let’s talk a bit more about the Kingdom of heaven. The Bible says, “…The government will be upon His shoulder…” (Isaiah 9:6). This is dealing with His structures and political arrangement.
Though the Kingdom of Heaven is already in the earth and ruling the spirit world, it’s not yet governing the people of the world. To better understand this, think of a political party that already has active party members but hasn’t assumed authority over the government of its state or nation. When that party eventually takes over the government, everything changes.
In the same way, once the Kingdom of God is truly and duly established in the earth, then the Kingdom of Heaven takes over! For now, the political structures in the world today continue to nosedive, and the world will keep having more problems until the Rapture takes place. The period of tribulation will then follow, after which the Lord Jesus will appear from heaven.
The Bible says in Daniel 7:27: “Then the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey Him.” Once the Lord Jesus returns at His second coming, He will get the Kingdom! He’ll establish His political structures on earth and take over. Hallelujah! He’ll reign and rule and, in the end, deliver the Kingdom to God the Father.
Remember, our actions for the Lord today are not just isolated tasks; they are preparations for significant responsibilities in the future Kingdom. Therefore, serve the Lord with your whole heart, and make up your mind to accomplish big things for the Kingdom, knowing that there’s a lot more beyond this life.
GO DEEPER
Mark 1:14; Matthew 3:1-2; Matthew 10:7
PRAY
Dear Father, I consciously invest time, energy and resources in the education and training of my spirit for greater Kingdom responsibilities ahead.
