The Kingdom of god reality part 2
Hello out there. I hope you are doing well today. I'm really excited about this teaching concerning the Kingdom Of God. If you read the last blog, we found out that for a prince to rule while His daddy is still alive[King] His daddy has to place his son in a foreign territory, and then and only then can a prince be a king. We found out that the kingdom of God is not a denomination nor is it a religion, it is in fact, a government. And we found out that when A kingdom extend its' influence into a foreign territory, it is called colonization, but when democracy does it, it is called invasion.
Now we will add another aspect to this teaching. First: When God place the garden of Eden on earth, He put it there as a seed, not a harvest. genesis 2:4 tells us that He planted this garden "BEFORE " it was in the earth. what He is saying is that the potential of the harvest is in the seed. God makes this man" from the dust of the ground". Adam was not made of the dust of the ground, his body was. Adam was a spirit like his daddy. God breathed into the mans' nostrils and then he became a living soul. God[Jesus] gives this man a commandment; Be fruitful multiply replenish the earth, and "HAVE DOMINION OVER ALL THE EARTH. The word" Dominion is a kingdom word, not a democratic word. Once Adam is Alive on earth, his job is to take that garden and spread it throughout the earth. So Adam was in fact a King. Notice however, that he was sent from a foreign land[heaven], into the earth and now he can rule down here. One of the principals for the Kingdom of God is sowing and reaping. This is what God was doing with Adam.
People think that this garden was lush and beautiful, and it was,but it was in seed form. Adam has to have a vision to see the end result, not how it looks at the present. Luke 3:37 says that Adam was the son of God. So God put into adam, the same thing that was in Him. Notice what Jesus is using to usher in His government: SONS. Lets' put this into application. Genesis 39 tells a story of Joseph being sold into slavery. There was no mechanism for rulership, while he was hanging out with his brothers. God had to somehow place Joseph in a foreign land. Joseph was purchased by potiphar. So,notice this; Joseph has been bought with a price[1cor 6:20]. The blessing was on Joseph, not potiphar. Joseph starts out as a seed, and once placed into this foreign land[Egypt] He began to grow. Look with at this verse[ Genesis 39:1] look at the credintials of Potiphar: officer of Pharoah,captain of the guard, An Egyptian. if you'll notice that through the rest of this chapter, the only thing that stands out
about potiphar, was that he was an egyptian. Why do you think that is written in the scritpures like that ? It is showing you that Potiphar represents another kingdom, but the kingdom of God citizen[Joseph] is going to take over that egyptian system[psalms 75:6]. What is the hallmark of Josephs ministry? FAITHFULNESS.
Potiphars wife[ notice that her name is not mentioned] comes after him to try to seduce him. She is really a puppet in the hands of Satan. She eventually grabs hold of his clothes and he runs for his life. She turns around and lies on Joseph to potiphar. Potiphar puts Joseph into prison. In Genesis 39:14 and 17 she refers to joseph as "the Hebrew". Why did she point that out? She is saying that this man is from another Government. He starts out as a seed and ends up a harvest[ prime minister] of Egypt. This story is a glimpse of the Kingdom of God taking over the whole earth.
Now, I will bring you into this: you are not at your job just to earn a check! God placed you there to spread the influences of the Kingdom of God in that job setting. What does this mean? It means that heaven has no sickness, poverty,sadness,divorce,hatred,dishonesty, or anything like that. You go in as a seed, and you through the agency of the Holy Ghost, began to wipe out all of satans influences at that job. 1st, you must be a good employee, show up to work on time, don't back talk the boss, don't pad your expense acoount, don't punch in early and not start working, things like that. God will give you opportunities to be a witness, but let Him do it. Unless he opens that door, you don't have an open door.
I will tell you something about me: a few years ago I worked as a long distance truck driver I was gone a few days a week. I hated that job, but my family needed the money, so I did it. It was early January, and I was in the middle of a blizzard in nothern Pennsylvainia. Here I am out in the middle of nowhere, and the devil starts talking to my mind" you are going nowhere, you will die out here, the is the end for you, you are nothing. I had to put all that aside and remembered why I am out there. I get to my last delivery, I go in to talk to the store owner and he says" wait a few minutes". My mind says" im ready to go, but I waited. 5 minutes passed by, then 10,20,25 minutes. He finally came to me[ this is the amazing part]. He said " I can't understand it, this snowstorm is bad, and I have had no customers all day, UNTIL YOU SHOWED UP"! Just me showing up, prospered his business. I didn't tell him that I was a Christian, I didn't invited him to church, I just showed up and the Govenrnment of Heaven showed up with me. I'm am not here to take sides, I'm here to take over!
