The Kingdom of GOD in You – Citizenship in the Kingdom

The foundational message of the kingdom of God is that believers are designed to live a supernatural life, independent of worldly circumstances. This abundant life is accessed through revelation—receiving God’s thoughts and strategies—and by exercising the authority granted through Kingdom citizenship.

The Power of Kingdom Thinking: Miracles and Dominion

The Kingdom of God resides within the believer, providing everything necessary. This truth shifts a believer’s focus from natural limitations to divine possibilities.

1. Accessing Supernatural Power: To experience miracles, one must be “miracle minded” and more mindful of the supernatural than of the natural world. Miracles are not “hocus pocus” or magic; they operate by divine laws. If a believer expects to be a millionaire, their natural mind might search for limited strategies (like selling t-shirts), but revelation provides not only the desired outcome but also the divine process and strategy to achieve it.

2. The Authority of Decree: A king rules by decree. Since Jesus is King, and the Kingdom is within the believer, believers have the authority to decree things, and if they believe it, “it shall be done”. This understanding of words is crucial. When the prophet in training saw the Syrian army, the older prophet’s words blinded every soldier in that group. Similarly, one prophet had access to as many angels as needed.

3. The Kingdom’s Domain: God’s plan is for the church to take every mountain and be at the top of every mountain. This includes taking control of economics, education, and media. The church, which is currently being run by God, should be running the world. The Earth itself is the believer’s domain and inheritance, not the devil’s.

Revelation: The Key to Unleashing Authority

Understanding God’s plan requires stepping outside the confines of the natural mind. God’s thoughts are not man’s thoughts, and His ways are not man’s ways, necessitating the reception of new thoughts to act differently.

1. The Source of Divine Knowledge: Revelation cannot be gained from a blackboard or whiteboard; it comes only from the Holy Ghost. Jesus confirmed this when Peter identified Him as the Christ, stating that “flesh and blood” had not revealed this truth, but the Father in heaven had. The Holy Ghost lifts thinking to a new level, enabling a higher level of action.

2. From Information to Revelation: Hearing a divine message once provides information, but hearing it a second time (or multiple times) leads to revelation. The Word must move from the head down into the heart; when it reaches the heart, the believer becomes difficult to handle. This is why the ministry encourages playing the messages multiple times.

3. Praying for Open Eyes: To behold the wondrous things in God’s Word (His Law), believers should pray for their eyes to be opened. A key prayer mentioned is based on Ephesians 1:16-18, asking God to give the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so the eyes of their understanding are enlightened to know the hope of His calling and the riches of the glory of His inheritance.

The Citizenship Mandate: What You Allow on Earth

The ultimate expression of Kingdom authority involves understanding and utilizing the keys of the kingdom of heaven.

  • The Power to Allow: Jesus stated, “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and God in heaven will allow whatever you allow on Earth“. Conversely, God “will not allow anything you don’t allow”.
  • Controlling the Pandemic: This means believers have the power to deal with issues on Earth, such as the pandemic. The pandemic is a curse, and believers have been redeemed from the curse. Just as Jesus took dominion over the curse everywhere He ministered, He is taking believers back to the dominion granted in Eden.
  • The Challenge to Unbelief: Many Christians lack this authority because they have not been miracle minded. God can clean up a pandemic in one day. The church has no business being pitied; it should be honored.

Demonstrating Kingdom Power: Healing and Restoration

The end-time church is destined to demonstrate the greatest power this earth has ever seen. Believers will be the most popular people on the planet in the last days.

  • Restoration of Bodies: The sources indicate that before the current generation leaves, they will witness the miraculous restoration of limbs, eyes, and hands. Jesus healed every person brought to Him—the blind received sight, the lame walked, and the maimed were made whole (including those who lost limbs in war or due to diabetes).
  • Healing Through Belief: Believing is seeing, and once a believer sees their healing (through revelation), the “deal is over”. When Jesus asked the blind men if they believed He could heal them, they said yes, and their healing was granted “according to your faith”.
  • The Power of Persistence: Blind Bartimaeus, upon hearing Jesus was near, cried out louder despite being told to be quiet. Revelation brings a revolution, and when a person can truly see their healing, they cannot be shut up.
