Today we are walking in: Understanding Kingdom Concepts!!!!!




Today we look to the word- KING- H4427- Malak- to reign; inceptively, to ascend the throne; causatively, to induct into royalty; hence (by implication) to take counsel:—consult, indeed, be (make, set a, set up) king, be (make) queen, (begin to, make to) reigning, rule, surely.

Thus saith the LORD the King H4427 of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.










The Writings Bear Witness…………………..




Psalm 10:16

The LORD is King H4427 for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.







UNDERSTANDING THE KINGDOM CONCEPTS



The message of the Bible is about a King, a Kingdom, and His royal offspring. Every one of the 7 billion people on planet earth is seeking the Kingdom of The Most High Yah, which is their ultimate fulfillment. Every religion and activity of mankind is man’s attempt to find the Kingdom. It is the pearl that out-values all pearls, and the only treasure that is worth all the other treasures of life. The Kingdom is life itself. Therefore it is imperative, crucial, and necessary that we all understand the concepts of kingdoms so that we can better appreciate the good news brought to earth by our Lord and Creator.


All true kingdoms contain the same characteristics and components. Here are concepts and principles of kingdoms that you should know and become familiar with. Study and apply them to the message of the Kingdom of The Most High Yah and heaven taught by the King Himself, Yahusha Hamachiach, in order to fully understand your purpose, potential, power, and position in life.


The Most High Yah’s simple strategy for extending and establishing His Kingdom on this earth was to rule the visible world of man from the invisible realm of the spirit. The plan meant that man would be His visible representative created specifically to live in the visible realm to represent Him. Let me put it another way. The Most High Yah’s original purpose and intent was to rule that which is seen (the visible world) through that which is unseen (the invisible world). He would do this through the unseen (the Spirit of The Most High Yah in man), living in the unseen (spirit of man) and living in the seen (the physical body) on the scene (the earth).


For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse (Rom. 1:20 NAS).


For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him (Col. 1:16 NAS).


By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of The Most High Yah, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible (Heb. 11:3 NAS).


How would He accomplish this? The Most High Yah, who is unseen, would put His Spirit into the unseen spirit of man—a spirit inhabiting a visible physical body living on the visible earth. Through man’s spirit a window of the soul is created so that man can communicate with the invisible world of The Most High Yah and also through another window man is able to communicate through his body to the visible world of man. Man is created in such a powerful and unique way that he is exalted above all of The Most High Yah’s creation.


By this means The Most High Yah could communicate from the unseen realm through the unseen spirit man to the seen realm, so that the visible world of man could understand His will. Whatever The Most High Yah desired would be relayed to the unseen, then manifested in the seen on the scene so that the earth would show what heaven was thinking.


1. The Kingdom Principle of Kings: The king is the central component of a kingdom and embodies the essence of the kingdom. The king is the ultimate source of authority in the kingdom and through this authority establishes the kingdom. The sovereignty of the king is inherent in his royal authority. Here are some unique qualities about a king:


• A king is never voted into power;

• A king’s authority is by birthright;

• A king cannot be voted out of power;

• A king’s word is law in his territory;

• A king personally owns everything in his domain;

• A decree of the king is unchanging;

• The king chooses who will be a citizen of his kingdom;

• The king embodies the government of his kingdom;

• The presence of the king is the presence of his entire kingdom authority;

• The king measures his wealth by the wealth of his property;

• The home of the king expresses his nature; and, • The name of the king is the essence of his power.


Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants (Matt. 18:23).


Say to the Daughter of Zion, “See, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey” (Matt. 21:5).


The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son (Matt. 22:2).


“You are a king, then!” said Pilate. Yahusha answered, “You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to Me” (John 18:37).


Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only The Most High Yah, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen (1 Tim. 1:17).


They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with Him will be His called, chosen and faithful followers (Rev. 17:14).


2. The Kingdom Lordship Principle: All true kings must have property or a domain over which they exercise rulership of dominion. Therefore, all true kings are personally legal owners of property, territory, or their domain. Another word for owner is “lord.” All true kings are automatically lords. Kings own all that is in their domain. Kings rule or command whatever is in their property or domain. Kings have absolute authority and control over their property. The king’s wealth is measured by the wealth of his property. Kings can give their property to anyone they wish.


The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for He founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters (Ps. 24:1-3).


How awesome is the Lord Most High, the great King over all the earth! (Ps. 47:2)


That if you confess with your mouth, “Yahusha is Lord,” and believe in your heart that The Most High Yah raised Him from the dead, you will be saved (Rom. 10:9-10).


...and every tongue confess that Yahusha Hamachiach is Lord, to the glory of The Most High Yah the Father (Phil. 2:11).


3. The Kingdom Domain Principle: The domain of a king is the territory over which he exercises authority, control, and dominion. The king owns his domain and can expand or extend it by the power of his might. The wealth of the domain determines the king’s glory. When the king impacts the domain with his influence it is called his “kingdom” (king-dom-ain). The king can delegate authority to others to share in the governing and administration of his domain.


His dominion is an eternal dominion; His kingdom endures from generation to generation. All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as He pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back His hand or say to Him: “What have you done?” (Dan. 4:34-35)


4. The Kingdom Constitution Principle: The constitution of the kingdom is the documented will, intent, desires, and purposes of the king for his citizens and kingdom.


Since a king’s word is supreme, who can say to him, “What are you doing?” Whoever obeys his command will come to no harm, and the wise heart will know the proper time and procedure (Eccles. 8:4-5).


I delight in Your decrees; I will not neglect Your word (Ps. 119:16).


Your word, O Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens. Your faithfulness continues through all generations; You established the earth, and it endures. Your laws endure to this day, for all things serve You. If Your law had not been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction. I will never forget Your precepts, for by them You have preserved my life (Ps. 119:89-93).


Yahusha answered, “It is written: ‘Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of The Most High Yah’” (Matt. 4:4).


5. The Kingdom Law Principle: The law of the kingdom is the proclaimed word, decrees, and edicts of the king, and these laws determine the standards and precepts by which the kingdom is to be governed.


And if we are careful to obey all this law before the Lord our The Most High Yah, as He has commanded us, that will be our righteousness (Deut. 6:25).


The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes (Ps. 19:7-8).


The law from Your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold (Ps. 119:72).


I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished (Matt. 5:18).



6. The Kingdom Keys Principle: The keys of the kingdom are the principles, precepts, laws, and systems by which the kingdom functions. The keys must be learned and applied by the citizens in order to appropriate the benefits and privileges of the kingdom.


I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven (Matt. 16:19).


7. The Kingdom Citizenship Principle: Citizenship in a kingdom is not a right but a privilege, and it is at the pleasure of the king himself. Citizens are chosen by the king and are beneficiaries of the king’s pleasure and promises.


But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Yahusha Hamachiach, who, by the power that enables Him to bring everything under His control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like His glorious body (Phil. 3:20-21).


Yahusha said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is from another place” (John 18:36).


But He continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world (John 8:23).


They are not of the world, even as I am not of it (John 17:16).


8. The Kingdom Royal Privilege Principle: Royal privileges of the kingdom are the benefits the king affords his citizens. They serve as a security for being in good standing with the king.


But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow (Matt. 6:33-34a).


And my The Most High Yah will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Hamachiach Yahusha (Phil. 4:19).


9. The Kingdom Code of Ethics Principle: This is the standard of conduct established by the king for the behavior and social relationships of his citizens. This is also the expectation of the king regarding the values and moral standards the citizens must adhere to. The code of ethics becomes the foundation of the kingdom culture and manifests itself in the lifestyle of the citizens.


Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of The Most High Yah? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of The Most High Yah. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Yahusha Hamachiach and by the Spirit of our The Most High Yah (1 Cor. 6:9-11).
