“Revelation 12:10 says, “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.” We must understand that the kingdom is NOW! The kingdom did not come with observation, but it came with a sound, and that sound was that of a rushing mighty wind on the day of Pentecost. And Salvation came when the Holy Ghost came, but strength came when the Grace of God came (2Cor.12:9). After Jesus ascended into heaven, Satan was cast out of heaven from accusing us before the throne of God. The power of the kingdom then is actively demonstrated in people that realize they have moved from a limited covenant, to a covenant with limitless possibilities. As long as Satan can trick you into the bondage of waiting for a kingdom to appear, you will never be effective as a kingdom citizen. Luke 17:20-21 says, “And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” And Colossians 3:4 says, “When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.” The kingdom is within you! And when the people of God move in manifestation, heaven is brought down to the earth! Thy kingdom come; thy will be done ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN! This manifestation comes when we experience the first resurrection of salvation in the Spirit. If you can hear the SOUND, then you will become the Lord’s Christ’s (the Lord’s anointed ones) in the earth! Revelation 11:15 says, “And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.” Jesus is the Lord, but who is His Christ? YOU, the Church! We must be careful not to be of the same mind as Martha saying to Jesus, “I know my brother Lazarus will rise in the resurrection at the last day” but not realizing that Jesus is the resurrection NOW! The kingdom was not postponed. Those that rejected Christ did not receive it, and they were blinded. We operate in the kingdom now! When God’s people move in the alignment of Heaven, that positions you in strategic places in the earth then the kingdom is realized. Does this mean that Jesus isn’t coming? No, but it means that when He does come, He will find you occupying the place of assignment in kingdom alignment.”
