Kingdom Dominion

Daniel 2:44-45, Philippians 2:11
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. *That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow … and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

The stone which King Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream (Dan.2:31-45) which destroyed the great image made of gold, silver, brass, iron and clay before growing into a great mountain and filling the whole earth, is Christ. All power in Heaven and on earth has been given to Him and He is filling us with that same glory and power of His Kingdom so that through us He will take over and consume the whole earth. The Kingdom of Christ is unstoppable and nothing can hinder the increase of His government (kingdom/ rulership) and peace, both in our lives and in every sphere of life and society. Divine peace and wholeness is a major product of the rulership of His Kingdom.

The Bible reveals that God created ALL THINGS through Christ and for Christ; and it is in alignment with Christ that ALL THINGS have their right purpose and meaning. He is the Head of the Church and the Church is His body. Through the Church, Christ will be the Head of ALL THINGS. Through Christ's Blood, God has reconciled ALL THINGS back to Himself, Col.1:16-20 (GNB). Everything belongs to God right now but God's will is yet to reign throughout the earth because God's will must first reign in us, the body of Christ. Through us, His will shall then reign in every sphere of influence in life and society. As we continually allow God's Kingdom to arise in us and as we keep arising and shining for God, we will have great influence and God's Kingdom will reign and fill the earth, Isa.60:1-3, Isa.2:1-5.

PRAYER FOCUS: May Your Kingdom continually fill our lives, O Lord and may Your Kingdom fill the whole earth through us in the Name of Jesus.
