THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE KINGDOM
I want to be speaking on the characteristics of the kingdom, and this session may seem to be not too critical, but I think it’s probably the most important aspect of application of the concept of the kingdom that we need to study. Basically, I’m going to be talking about understanding the focus that Yahusha had, and why he taught so much and focused on the subject of the kingdom life. Let’s begin with a few thoughts. Number one, write it down please. Yah‘s original plan was never religion and that’s a concept that needs to be clear in our minds. That’s really a paradigm shift because we are all religious people and I’m talking about everybody. Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, Confucius, Scientologists, there’s a whole lot of religions, and I must throw in Christianity because Christianity has become just like all the others. It’s one massive complicated, ritualistic, religious experience. Religion is from the word which means to search. So religion is a description you give of a person participating in a search. So religion is an activity of searching and that is why religion is so overbearing. It’s a search where you are trying to find something. So Christians are also being reduced to a search. I am no longer a Christian. I am now a citizen. We will talk about that in a minute, but religion makes you strive to please your deity. Religion makes you strive to appease your deity, and these are important statements that I am making because they are so subtle. We have become just like almost any other religion in the world. We do things so that Yah likes us. That’s what other religions do, or are afraid to do. They want to appease the deity. Isn’t it strange that while yet you were a sinner Hamachiach died for you so how can you try to appease him. But yet religion does that. The religion Christianity is a religion of keeping laws. It’s a religion of keeping expectations laid down by an organization called whatever your denomination is. That is what Christianity has become to most people. This is why Christians are always tired. They are tired of working so hard to not break laws. Suppose you spent the rest of your life living in your country, focusing on not breaking any law, how could you enjoy living in that country? Citizenship is not the focus on keeping laws. If you are a citizen of your country, you enjoy your country. You enjoy the environment, you enjoy the resources, you enjoy the atmosphere, you enjoy the culture, you enjoy the food, you enjoy the freedom to walk on the park or to go on the beach or to go swimming or to go and watch a game and enjoy the citizenship. You do not focus on, which law I am breaking now. Religion makes you tired. Yah‘s plan was never religion. Secondly, Yah‘s plan was for you always to rule. Always rulership was on his mind. Thirdly, your destiny is king Dominion. These are concepts you need to get into your thought patterns. Fourthly the purpose of Yah in Hamachiach was to restore his kingdom on earth. That’s why Yah sent Hamachiach to restore the kingdom on earth and then fourthly, every man is searching for kingdom dominion. Now this statement is loaded. Every man is searching for kingdom Dominion. In other words, every man is looking for power over his environment. Please write this statement down. Christianity is a religion. Religion does not give you power over your environment. Religion gives you the tolerance to endure the circumstances. Religion also gives you comfort in the midst of your tribulation, your trials. It makes you accept your environment without the prospect of changing it. But the kingdom is different. Yah intended for you and I to be dominators of our environment. I want to stress this power. Every human being in the world is looking for power. Every human being, 6.2 billion of them, whether they live under a bridge or they live in a palace, they have the same desire. They both want power. Am I right about that? Be honest, what do you really want? Tell the truth and don’t come to me at all that religious garbage about you want to be humble and you want to just serve the Most High. No! You want power and don’t be ashamed of that desire. As a matter of fact, if you don’t want power, something is wrong with you. Some of you are looking shocked already, but I have not even got started yet. Power motivates everything you do right now I can prove it. Power motivates everybody. That is why there is corruption in the world. The corruption is not the problem. Corruption is activity that the individual participates in with the prospect of getting power. I want to prove it again. You want power. We have got to settle this issue because if we don’t settle this, you are going to keep denying the truth about yourself. You want power. Why is every young person‘s dream even the man sleeping in the gutter on a cardboard box right now. His dream is to be a millionaire at 40. Why do all of us think that? Now we don’t tell everybody that, but we think that. Has anybody thought of that? Do not lie. All of you have dreamt of being a millionaire. Is that true? Stop lying. We all want a lot of money and let me tell you why. We don’t want money it’s not money we want. We want what money promises us. Money promises us power. Power to wear what we want, drive what we want, live anywhere we want eat anything we want, buy what we want, go where we want, stay as long as we want, Just to do whatever we want. We want power. Why do you try to be famous? And don’t lie. Everybody wants to be famous because it’s not fame you want. What fame gives you is influence and influence is what? Power. So that’s what you want. So you tried to become a good singer, a great basketball player, a great hockey player, or a football player, a great preacher, same issue. Why? It’s not the activity. It is what it promises you. What does it promise you? Power. Do you know why you want power? Because it’s natural. You know I’m going to say this to you, I have so much to say to you, but you can’t take it now, but I will say this much. What was the last thing Hamachiach promised you? The last promise. It’s found in Acts chapter 1. He knows just what you’re looking for. He promised you power not just power, but power over circumstances. He said I give you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy. Why? Because he knows what you want. That’s power. Have we settled this issue yet? Some of us still have not get it. Power. Do you know why the poor people like Yahusha and didn’t like the Pharisees? Here’s something crazy. Do you know why the rich people love Yahusha? And didn’t like the Pharisees? Because the Pharisees and Sadducees represented religion. Remember now, religion doesn’t give you power, it gives you toleration. It teaches you to tolerate your circumstances that you cannot control. That is what religion does. So religion says it’s the Most High’s will for you to be like this. That is religion. So it explains why you should not control your environment but here comes this 30 year old rabbi from this little town in Nazareth and he has a message that’s not religious. He’s preaching this KING DOMINION. He’s preaching ruler domination. Don’t get too spiritual about the word king. King means ruler, and DOM is domination. So a kingdom is a ruler that dominates. He says you were born to be in a leadership dominion position. When the people heard that they said my Yah you mean we can take control of our circumstances? so they followed him by the thousands. Why? He appealed to what their passion was, and every single one of you has it. He appealed to their desire for power, and then he then demonstrated it, and that made it worse because they didn’t only hear him say you’re gonna have power, but now he said, he was getting rid of diseases that they couldn’t get rid of for years. Here is a guy sick for 38 years laying on a mat, and every time he tried to get up people would run before him. The guy was helpless. His circumstances controlled him, and he lays on a mat and the mat becomes his prison. Here comes Yahusha and the Bible says that he preached the kingdom of Yah, and then he told the man, what can I do for you? And the man says I’ve been laying here and I tried to get up and I can’t get in and then Yahusha says what do you want? And he says I want to be healed. And Yahusha says good take your mat up and start carrying your mat. Your mat should not carry you. What did he give the man? Power! Lepers… when you had leprosy, they were tie, a bell around your neck and they will put you outside of the city and you cannot come in and whenever you came close to a human you would ring the bell so they would know you were a leper and therefore, you were literally an outcast. You were not able to socialize with the community, so to be a leper was to be an isolationist experience out of community. Hamachiach meets these 10 lepers and their own Lil isolation colony and he says you guys need to go back to your family. I can imagine them saying, but we cannot control our circumstances. So he gives them what? Power! He takes away the leprosy and gives them their power back. All right, if you don’t get this right, you will keep missing the kingdom. Do you know why you have ulcers, high blood pressure and all of kinds of skin diseases? Do you know why you have cysts growing in your womb and you have lumps in your breast and you have all kinds of problems in your sexual organs? Do you know why you have eye problems and all kinds of chest problems and your arteries are messed up and your back is messed up? Do you know why your neck is so tight and your back is aching? Do you know why you are sick? You are sick because you don’t have any power. Nothing makes you more depressed and frustrated than not being able to pay your bills. The bank controls are alive, they control the car, they control the house, they control how much groceries you can buy because you have got to spend the salary up into payment For the house and for the food and sometimes you have to cut down on the amount of Fiji because you’ve got to pay more than one person that makes your bills higher and sometimes you have to take stuff that doesn’t belong to you because it belongs to somebody else. Have you ever heard this, my paycheck is gone before I receive it. That’s common. What does that mean? Other people control your life. That’s why you want to be a millionaire. So what do you get? You get worry. What is worry? Stress. It is scientifically proven that 97% of all disease is caused by stress. What is stress? Worry. What is worry? Concerned about circumstances you can’t change. Why do you think Yahusha promised us authority over sickness and disease? He says it’s kingdom. The kingdom gives you power over circumstances. Why? That’s what you want. Then it goes all the way back to your original assignment isn’t it? Genesis chapter 1 verse 26 and you know it very well. What does it say? And Yah said, let us make man in our own image, and in our likeness and let him have dominion over what? Fish, birds, trees, plants, all things that creep on the earth. He said you appear to dominate the environment. Kingdom is rulership over the environment, and whenever you cannot do that, then you become depressed, oppressed, suppressed and compressed, and that is why he came to set us free. Power. How many of you could think of some things you want to do right now but you can’t do it because you don’t have the resources? How do you feel about that thing? Frustrated right? You want to finish the house. That frustration is that you don’t have what it takes. The resources. You have no power over the circumstances and then you go to the bank and then they start dictating the terms and now you are under two prisons, the worry and the stress. And then if they do give you the loan they add interest to that and then they put a little note that this can be called in on demand. That’s prison so the Bible says the borrower is what? A slave. dominion. You were not created to be dominated like that you were created to dominate and so the kingdom of Yah comes to restore that dominion. This is the other statement here: the destiny of king Dominion. It is so important because power is what the kingdom promises. Now I want to show you how the kingdom works, and this is very important. Daniel chapter 7. Some of you have never read these before in your life so please write these down. Matter of fact, we think the Bible really is a deep book but the Bible is a very simple book. I’m going to show you a couple of scriptures of who the kingdom was designed for. But remember we are reading the Old Testament. Some of you think the kingdom of Yah is a New Testament subject. No, it is as old as Genesis chapter 1 verse 26, but here we see Daniel. Daniel got a view of the future of mankind. Remember, he got the revelation about the future and here’s what Daniel saw in Daniel chapter 7 verse 17 and 18. He says, but the Saints of the most high will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever and ever. That is found in Daniel. You should read the whole passage and get the context because it is beautiful. He is talking about when the Messiah comes he will create a nation of saints, and then Daniel says the Saints of the most high will do what? they will possess the kingdom, not a religion. For how long? Forever. How long is forever? That means you cannot stay in heaven if that statement is true. Because there is no rulership in heaven for you. Check the Bible. No one, no human rules in heaven. There is no room in there for you to rule. That place is already under rulership. He says that is your destiny. The next statement that I found very interesting is Isaiah chapter 9 verse seven. Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and forever over his kingdom, establishing and holding it with Justice and righteousness from this time on, and forever. When Hamachiach comes, he says he will bring what? Government. Look what he says about the government. He says the government shall increase in his she’ll never stop increasing, and then says he will uphold his government through what? Justice and righteousness. Now write the word uphold down. it is not a complicated word, but you have to know what it means. The word uphold means to maintain order or to function by. Very important word. Uphold means to maintain or to function by. So when you put that meaning in there the verse changes. It says this kingdom that he will have he shall maintain it and it shall function by two things, justice and righteousness. Write the word justice down. The word justice is not a religious word. It’s a legal word from the courts. And every time you read the Old Testament or the New Testament and you see the word kingdom mentioned it always has the word either justice. He says he will rule with Justice. Have you ever read that in the Bible? The word justice means right. RIGHTS. He says this kingdom will not function on feelings. Religion deals with feelings. Religion deals with emotion. Religion makes you have spasms. Religion makes you fall under the spirit. Religion makes you dance, and religion makes you feud the anointing, but none of that gets you anything from Yah. This kingdom doesn’t function on feeling nor emotion it functions on what? Rights. Why? It’s a literal government. When you go into the courtroom to get something in the court system and you stand there in that witness box and the judge begins to talk about your case and your lawyer presents your evidence and then you begin to witness, here you are in the courtroom, have you ever seen this? And you begin to break down and cry. Do you know what the judge does? The judge stops the court. He says stop and we will now take a break for 15 minutes. Please go and compose yourself and come back. Why?. This is not a place for tears. This is a place for rights and rights are obtained by evidence of legitimacy. In other words, the reason why your prayers are not answered yet is because you think Yah is listening to you because you are talking to him in a funny sound. That says look this is the legal kingdom and you have to bring rights to me. Do you have the right to what you are asking for? This is kingdom thinking. Let me tell you something, listen carefully, and this is going to blow some of your religious minds. And all night prayer meetings could do nothing if you don’t understand the kingdom. Hanging around the courtroom all night does not bring the judgment in your favor. I finished my case. You can stay in front of the courtroom for three days moaning and tarrying and in three days the judge will say what are you doing here? Do you have any evidence? Do you have a right to claim what you are demanding? He says his kingdom will operate on rights and righteousness. Write the word, righteousness down it is very important. Why is this word always mentioned next to the kingdom? Seek the kingdom and its righteousness. Righteousness means, write it down, it means right relating. It means proper positioning. Look at that verse. He said this kingdom will function on two things. If you are positioned properly, you can demand any right that is yours. That’s the way the kingdom works. So you are out of position, don’t even ask for anything. Let me tell you something, you remember when Hamachiach said if you come and bring your petition before the king and while you are presenting your petition you remember that someone has an alt against you, he says, do not try to present that why? You are not rightly related. I tapped into the secret of the kingdom, and that is why Hamachiach has called it a secret. The secret of the kingdom is not your emotional cry and snot, knows running, moaning, or sweeping religion. The most frustrated people on planet earth are religious people. You might be sitting next to one of them. They are frustrating and if they are honest, they will tell you that they are frustrated, but they put on a show for a couple hours when they go to a service or read a teaching. But they are frustrated because their life is not working. Your life is not working. Why? Because religion deals with feelings. But a kingdom is a government with a legal entity. You need to read the Bible all over again. There was a woman sitting in a religious organization for many years and she was sick and she could not stand up and she was bent over and she was sick for a very long time and she came in every week to that synagogue why? Because religion makes you comfortable in your circumstances. Every week she came in these big long robe bishops called Pharisees and scribes sat up there every day, and read the Scriptures deep stuff written by Isaiah, and made their commentary from the Torah and the Pentateuch and they were so deep and the woman kept coming there with her sickness. One day the king came in. And they asked the king to read the scripture, and that is a tough thing to do because now he is not going to read it, but he is going to demonstrate this thing. And he walks up to the podium and read the description in the Bible says he fastened his eyes on the woman. The leaders began to get nervous, and they said he is going to do something. And it is the wrong day. It is the Sabbath day, and he is not supposed to work on this day. And the Bible says Christ, knowing their thoughts, he said these words, he said which of you if your ox fell into the ditch on the sabbath day, would you not go and get him out? Of course, he saw them do it so he couldn’t answer the question. You have to understand the thinking here. So he said well this woman and he pointed out and he said this woman, you’ve got to watch how he’s going to shift into kingdom thinking. Is she not a daughter of Abraham? In other words, I don’t care how she feels right now, I don’t care how she’s moaning I’m shifting into rights. Is she a daughter of Abraham? Then, if she’d be a daughter of Abraham, watch the word he uses, he says ought not. That is a heavy word. She ought to be free from this infirmity. Say this with me, I am a citizen. I ought to be debt-free. Say it like you mean it I ought to be debt-free. The kingdom Has to get in your mind. You need to raise your hand right now and say I ought to be healed. See if you ask Yah to be healed you are not going to be healed. You have to go in there and understand that you have the right to be healed. Say it. I have a right to be healed. I have a right to be wealthy. That’s a different idea altogether. She ought to be free from this he says. Yah is not supposed to bless you as a favor. That’s religion. I know it because I used to be in a religion and I was deep into it. I was born Into a pastor family. I know how to keep religion real good. It will kill you. Nothing is more exciting than the kingdom. Let me stress something to you. Do you know why Yahusha said go into the world, and preach the gospel of the kingdom? Do you know why he said that? Because he knows what the world wants. They want power. How come all those unrighteous people love Yahusha so much? They were attracted to what he was teaching. Matter fact, it was them who said no Man speaks like this man. The Bible says that they loved his words. What kind of statement is that? They loved his words. They loved his message. He was promising them power. Could you imagine a peasant living in Comporium under the Roman Empire being forced to pay taxes and he has to carry the Roman soldier shield which weighs 70 pounds, 1 mile by law. The guy is a victim and here comes this young guy saying you know you can control your circumstances. If you come into this kingdom. Do you want to see why Peter was such a bull? One kingdom put Peter in jail and locked him up in chains. He had chains on his feet and chains on his hands locked in the wall in that sale, and there were soldiers outside of the Cell. That’s one kingdom. And there was a small group in a little room, praying to another kingdom and they said to their government that this government has arrested one of your citizens oh king, and we have a problem with that. So that government sent their soldiers. And their soldiers walked right past the other soldiers, and kicked open the gate and without a key that they made unlocked the chains and the citizen walked and stepped over the sleeping soldiers, and walked out of the prison, not harmed, and came to a meeting and the other citizens said wow the government answered that quickly. That is your government. See, Yah does not have to meet your needs the way you have figured it out. It’s kingdom power. When they tell you that you are not going to get any more money. That is not a time to panic. It is time to change governments. I rest my case. Matthew chapter 3 I thought it was interesting in those days. John the Baptist came preaching in the desert of Judah and saying “repent for the kingdom of heaven is now“. You never saw that before but that is what John preached. He had the right message. Notice the word near. He was in the crowd. The kingdom was in the crowd. John said I don’t know where it is but it is near. He said change your mind because the kingdom is about to come in on us. Why? Why? change your mind? Because you see there’s only one way to pay your mortgage. That’s payment every month for 25 years. John says repent. You missed it. See you have one way to pay to win, you have to find money and save it up or get it from somewhere or borrow it and then you pay, but Yah says change your mind. I’ve got a way to pay your tuition that you have never seen so you cannot continue to keep your mind in that old kingdom. You do not understand what I am talking about. Some of you have already concluded you need money from the bank and you have already concluded that, but Yah is saying change your mind. You have already decided there’s only one way to get healed and that is certain medication, but Yah says change your mind. Everybody say repent. There’s only one way for a man who was put into prison to come out of prison and that is you have to go to the local government and you have got to appeal to them and ask them for this case to be brought up and you bring evidence that you weren’t guilty, and then you spend five days in the trial, and then you’ve got to go through all these kinds of customs and all kinds of instructions, and you have to keep appealing And if they decide, then they will let him go, but Yah says change your mind. All you have to do is pray, and I will send the angels and they will take off the cuffs and bring you out. There is another way to get a man out of prison. That says feed them. There’s only one way to feed them: you've got to go back into town for a three day walk and then you have to spend money and buy enough for 5000 rolls and 5000 fishes. We have to feed these folks, and I’m going to have to take some cost to bring it back. We need some camels to bring back the bread. We need to arrange a three day walk so the bread doesn’t mold and spoil. We have to work hard and get the food back here. He says change your mind. That is the kingdom you live in. There is another way to feed 5000 people. Lift your hands up and say, Most High when I’m going through I have a right to be free. Fix it anyway you want. This is kingdom. Stop telling the government how to do its business. It’s a different world. Some of you cannot believe that somebody would walk up to you and pay your mortgage off tomorrow morning. You cannot believe that. It is hard to believe it because you are religious. It’s tough to believe it. Matter-of-fact You don’t believe anybody can love you that much. And that’s where you are mistaken. It does not have anything to do with Love. It Has to do with rights. You think those birds loved Elijah? No. But they were sent to bring the cake. I have had people tell me to my face you know I can’t stand you. You are so bold and confident and you come off arrogant but I like what you’re doing anyhow so here’s a check for $100,000. Everybody say send them angels. It is not about the angels, but it is about the government sending them to bring it. It is kingdom. Look at this one here, Matthew chapter 25. It says come, you are blessed of my father and take your inheritance. What is inheritance? Rights. What are your rights? The kingdom. Which was prepared for you. How long? It was always yours before the earth was even made. Matthew chapter 4 verse 17 from that time for Yahusha began to preach what? The kingdom of heaven is near or has arrived. He said it is in me, but it shall be what? In you. He says Matthew chapter 10 as you go first, Seven preach this message. What message? The kingdom. He told his disciples. I don’t even trust you about what to preach. I’m going to tell you what to preach. Yah is visiting us again in this generation, so he’s saying he is sick and tired of what we have been preaching so he is going to tell us again what to preach he said preach the kingdom. We have been preaching all this stuff. I have been cleaning up my files just dumping sermons. He said that’s not the message. You become what you learn. So if you learn tolerance, you will tolerate all of this garbage you are going through but if you learn dominion, you will dominate it. It is that simple. As a man think. Matthew chapter 13 verse 18. It is a parable of the solar. This is important. it says when anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it. The evil one comes and snatches it away with what was sewn in his heart. That is the most powerful verse you have ever read. Hasatan is not afraid of your teaching on the blood. Listen carefully. He is not afraid how long you teach on prosperity. You listen to me carefully. He is not afraid if you teach about faith. Hasatan says keep teaching. I am not afraid of none of that teaching. The only one he is afraid of is the one that Yahusha said. Hasatan is afraid of one message and he comes to snatch it away. He says I don’t care if they believe in healing, that's fine as long as they don’t believe in the kingdom because the kingdom gets you healing but makes you keep it. So you can get healed and get sick again but when you get kingdom and you get it and you keep it because now you are dealing with rights. That’s why Hasatan will fight this message more than any other message because this message moves the power out of the pulpit and put it in you. I’m going to say one more thing about religion. Write this down. Religion runs on control. Religion gets its satisfaction from controlling the people in it. That’s why religious people hate this message of the kingdom. The Pharisees enjoy controlling people. The sadducees enjoy controlling people and Hamachiach came and started meddling with their control system. He started telling those peasants and those farmers and those fisherman, If you follow me, I’ll give you influence over men and women and families and children. I will give you influence over demons and devils and sickness and disease and the Pharisees say wait a minute. Religion likes to control people. Look at the religions of the world. Including Christianity. It’s called mass control, mental control, brainwashing. This is not about brainwashing when I teach about how to have your own personal government where you have ruling in your heart and the king of kings in the Most High of Most High, and as a citizen, he gives you the authority to demand rights from your government to control your environment. That’s what I call power. Hasatan hates that. Luke, chapter 12 says this, but seek for the kingdom, and these things will be added onto you. Do not be afraid, little flock, for your father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Yah wants you to have the kingdom. So what is the kingdom characteristic? The word kingdom is the word bacilli in the New Testament and this it has three meanings. It means sovereignty, royal power, and dominion. This is serious stuff. Hamachiach came to give you sovereignty and Royal power and Dominion. Well sounds familiar. Let them have dominion. He said let them have dominion. The yolk that Hamachiach was carrying was dominion. He was carrying the yolk of government and what did he do? He took it off of him and put it back on you. Why? Because if it’s you. You were made for dominion. A yolk that doesn’t fit the animal will kill the animal. So anything other than dominion is killing you. You are not built for worry. That’s why Hamachiach says do not worry, stop worrying, don’t worry. Why? Worry is torment. The scripture says. Torment means irritation until death. You irritate your neck until it kills you. You irritate your back until it kills you. But what is kingdom? It is my father’s good pleasure to give you? Sovereignty. To give you what? Royal power. To give you what? Dominion. Do not read the Bible like a religious person. Read it properly. He says it’s my father‘s good pleasure to give you sovereignty and to give you royal power and to give you dominion that is kingdom. It is my father‘s good pleasure to give you what? Sovereignty. Some of you think that Yah is threatened when you say that you are sovereign. Yah gets excited when you start acting sovereign. I’m going to control my circumstances today and Yah says you make me excited. It pleases the father to give you authority.
