KINGDOM STRUCTURE FOR VICTORY – Ron McGatlin
As the great transition and transformation continues in our lives and families, our cities and eventually our nations and the world, it is needful to hear and discern what God is doing in the world and how we each need to change to align with the will and way of God.
Whether we like it or not there are many changes now taking place to move the people and the nations toward the perfect will of God.
God’s supernatural heavenly love, power and wisdom is flowing into the hearts and lives of many young people of God. The older generations have seen a measure of victory in the presence and glory of God manifesting on earth. However, that which we have experienced in the recent past generations, pales in comparison to what God is doing among the next generations.
God is structuring the world and especially the young people of the world to move into the fullness of the kingdom of God. Recent past generations have been self-structured largely by lukewarm religious church systems and increasing godless humanism that did not produce the victory of the rule and ways of God in the culture.
Christ Jesus has provided and is now providing everything needed to bring forth the fullness of the kingdom of heaven/kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.
MYSTERIES BEING REVEALED
The mystery of Christ in us bringing forth His life on earth is no longer a mystery. It is being revealed and experienced in the young believers that are in love with God.
Praise God, some of us old ones are also getting it. However, it belongs to the young and strong to become so alive in the love and power of God that the culture will not affect them. Instead, they will change the culture to the kingdom of God way of life on earth.
The mystery of the kingdom of God within us is being released forth into the world to establish the kingdom on earth. By the love power and wisdom of God in Christ by the Holy Spirit it is now being revealed and received by true sons and daughters of God.
THE MESSAGE OF THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS
Their message reaches and reforms the world. It is the GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM that Christ Jesus proclaimed and demonstrated over two thousand years ago. Christ, in the sons and daughters, is beginning to proclaim the same message and do the same works and even greater works. (John 14:12).
The message of Jesus and the first century disciples was the gospel of the kingdom of God. They boldly proclaimed and demonstrated that the kingdom of God had come to earth and was now at hand. Jesus demonstrated the kingdom of God over the world as He healed the sick, cleansed lepers, set at liberty the bound, raised the dead, forgave sins, calmed the raging sea, walked on the water and more.
Jesus taught deep understanding and wisdom in the many parables focused on bringing the ways of God from heaven to earth. He taught us how the kingdom worked and how to walk in it so as to establish the way of God on earth.
Christ Jesus is alive and well in His saints, the sons and daughters being manifested into this world. He is now and will be soon even more glorified IN his saints and admired AMONG those that believe, that our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified IN (or within) you, and you IN (or within) Him. (2 Thessalonians 1:10-12).
Their message of the kingdom involves Christ manifest on earth in the true sons and daughters of God to establish the rule and reign of Father God in Christ by the Holy Spirit within God’s people on earth.
The gospel of “salvation” or being born again is a major first part of the gospel of the kingdom. However, it is only the beginning of the gospel of the kingdom that Jesus proclaimed. (Matthew 4:23, 9:35) (Mark 1:14) (Luke 8:1). The first century Apostles also preached the gospel of the kingdom. (Acts 20:25) (Acts28:31).
It is much like a natural person is born as a baby and must go through growth to become a full-grown person. Only then can that person fulfill their God given purpose of being fruitful and multiplying and having dominion on earth. (Genesis 1:28).
A new born child of God first requires milk then solid food and then meat of the word. The Holy Spirit of God working through godly Spirit saturated parents are needed for the children to mature safely and timely into true sons and daughters of God, saturated by the Spirit of God in Christ, to do the works of Christ in establishing the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.
The gospel of the kingdom of God on earth is not a new message. The word of the kingdom spans the entire Bible and is the key focus of the teaching of Christ Jesus. It has been hidden in plain sight awaiting a people of God’s pure holy love to bring forth the reality of the word of the kingdom.
Lukewarm or immature Christians could not and cannot now carry the word and reality of the gospel of the kingdom. A seed group of forerunners are now multiplying into an army of pure hearted sons and daughters worthy to carry the word and bring forth the reality of the kingdom of God/kingdom of heaven on earth.
FINAL PREPARATION OF FIRE
The all-consuming passionate fire of God that is the strength and energy of the pure hearted sons and daughters of God is the same fire that dissolves the wickedness and darkness. The fire of God is the movement or outpouring of the intensely passionate love of God that exalts purity and destroys evil darkness.
Jesus came to bring this fire to earth. It is now kindled and growing on earth as Christ Jesus is now arising within His pure hearted people. “I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!” Luke 12:49. The wish of Christ Jesus is now coming to pass.
FIRE IS PURIFYING.
Precious metals are made pure through intense fire. Food is made safe by cooking with fire. Fire is often used as a cleansing agent.
Jesus also came to baptize with the Holy Spirit and FIRE. John the Baptist spoke, “And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the FIRE. 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and FIRE. 12 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable FIRE.”
Just as surely as the fire of the pure holy love of God is being poured out by the Holy Spirit to purify believers, so also the same fire is purifying the earth by dissolving all evil darkness and all that it has formed in this world.
Lukewarm religion and ungodly humanism have allowed the enemy to fill the world with the works and ways of Satan and his demons.
The fire of God will cleanse all that is in or upon the people of God. All that has distracted or limited us will be dissolved away by the fire of God’s love.
In the severe season of burning or dissolving all that is not of God will be dissolved so as by fire.
God will give His purified sons and daughters beauty for the ashes of the past. He will heal all our wounds and give us the oil of joy for mourning and a garment of praise for a spirit of heaviness. Make us as trees of righteousness that God will be glorified. The world is made new as we rebuild the kingdom of God on earth as God designed it to be in the beginning. (Isaiah 61:1-4).
THE VICTORY OF EXPERIENCING THE KINGDOM
All who are entrapped in darkness and evil bondages that will turn to the light and love of God will be set free and filled with the love of God by the fullness of the Holy Spirit.
Those in evil darkness and bondages that will not turn to the light and love of God will be removed from this world, thus cleansing the world in preparation for the fullness of the rule and reign of Christ and Father God in and with His people on earth as it is in heaven.
God is not willing that any should perish. The love of God is forever and of His increasing kingdom there is no end.
2 Thessalonians 1:6-8: “Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, 7 and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is REVEALED from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
The revealing or manifestation of the Lord Jesus with His mighty angels is Spirit God in and among His mighty army of full-grown Sons of God marshalled under the revealed Lord and King Christ Jesus with His powerful angels destroying all evil and darkness from this world.
The kingdom of God from heaven on earth is a Spirit kingdom ruled by Spirit God that is manifested into the natural or physical realm.
The vengeance of Almighty God in King Jesus in and with His holy pure hearted Sons of God with the angels of heaven is the fire of the glory of God taking back the beautiful Planet Earth. The earth with all of it’s systems and all that is in it or on it is be the manifestation of Spirit heaven in physical form to the glory of God.
2 Thessalonians 1:9-12: “These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, 10 when He comes (manifest), in that Day, to be glorified IN HIS SAINTS and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed.
11 Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power 12 that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be GLORIFIED IN YOU, and YOU IN HIM, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Colossians 1:26-27: “The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. 27 To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
“Do not fear, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32.
