The Keys To Accessing The Things Of The Kingdom


I want to show you in this series on the kingdom in this segment how Yahusha describes the power of things over our lives. So our theme today is the Kingdom key to accessing the things of the Kingdom. Understanding the principle of how to live effectively in Kingdom Life and how to walk in that understanding I want to begin by reminding us of what we should be focusing on. Kingdom priority in the Book of Matthew chapter 6 our foundational verse. This is probably going to be one of the most important sessions you’re going to get because it’s going to show you that your stress and your sickness and your disease are all related to the pursuit of provisions. I’m going to begin with a couple of statements here Matthew chapter 6, verse 30. Yahusha is speaking to the people, he says, therefore, do not worry, saying what shall we eat? What shall we drink? What shall we wear for after all these things, the gentiles seek or the pagans seek for your heavenly father knows that you need them, Yah knows that, all of these things, but you must seek first what? The kingdom of Yah and his righteousness, and all of these things shall be added, or given to you as a byproduct. Therefore, do not worry, he repeats himself, about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about its own things, sufficient for today is its own trouble. Sufficient what? For today. Yah wants to meet all of your needs today. And each day they might change it doesn’t matter the day is what he is going to take care of. I want to ask you to write a couple of thoughts here. The secret to things Matthew chapter 6 verse 33, but seek first the kingdom of Yah and his righteousness, and all of these things will be added to you. When I first pondered this chapter, I was about 18 years old, I had a group called the visionaries. I begin to teach the kingdom when I was 18 years old. All I used to teach from in those crusades was the book of Matthew. It is my favorite book and from the book of Luke because I got excited about the kingdom of Yah when I heard a man called Tom Skinner preach one day. What got me in? This passage is this, Yahusha began this discussion by saying stop, worrying about food, water, clothes, and housing. Now these four things are what all of us work for. we go to work to get money so we can buy food, water, clothing, and pay for a house whether it’s a mortgage or rent. Now listen, this is very important. Yahusha disturbed me because what he is doing is he’s taking away the reason for going to work. Think.. . Why are you working so hard, keep water on keep food in the kitchen and pay your mortgage or rent. He destroyed that reason for going to work. And Luke, he said it even more forcefully. He said take no thought of these things. Now wait a minute, he just destroyed your reason for going to work. do you understand what I am saying? Do you understand what I am talking about? His statement destroys your reason for working, which means you were never supposed to go to work in his mind to get these things. Now you are supposed to go to work, but your motivation and your reason for going to work he destroys. this is heavy, this is heavy. He was talking to farmers and fisherman and carpenters. He says stop going to work to catch fish to sell them to buy food. Worry about that, don’t worry about water, food clothes, houses don’t even think about those things. Why do I go to work every morning? you are supposed to work for a different reason than just sustenance. This is heavy. This is deep he says seek first the kingdom of Yah and his righteousness and all of these things shall be added. He said don’t worry about them they’ll be added. So your work is supposed to be motivated by seeking the kingdom interest in your activity that you call work. What is a kingdom? All right a kingdom is the governing of influence of a king over territory, impacting it with his will his purpose and his intent, producing a culture of values and morals and lifestyle that reflects the kings, personal desires, and his nature in his citizens. In other words that kingdom is not a religion. It is a government. how do you seek the kingdom? He says seek first the kingdom of Yah. I did my research here on the word seek and I found out that it is a massive word. The word seek means you have to seek to understand the concepts of the kingdom to understand its philosophy, to understand its government, to understand its laws, it’s culture, it’s society, it’s economy, it’s citizenship, provisions also to understand it’s worship how to worship in the kingdom he says, seek to also understand the protocol of the kingdom, and seek to also understand the representatives and the representation of the kingdom. That whole list will take you a lifetime seek means to explore to study, to learn, to try to understand. To seek means to pursue, and you have to pursue the whole list. What I’m doing with you is trying to take you through each one of these and teach you a little bit of all of these things. Let’s say, for example what is The kingdom? Well, the kingdom of Yah is the governing influence of the king and the kingdom, territory, impacting it with his will. Now, he says, seek first the government influence of Yah in the earth, and then he says righteousness, his righteousness. The word righteousness means right, positioning, or alignment with the government authority of a kingdom. In other words, righteousness means you do everything to stay in right relationship with the authority, you obey the laws like any government. So two things he says to put your life on first seek the influence of Yah‘s heavenly government on earth, and to seek to remain in right relationship with that government. Don’t send, don’t rebel, don’t break the laws. Two things he says, and the rest of your life I will take care of. Which means that my work, my motivation, for going to work, should be to bring the influence of Yah in my job. To bring the memorials and the values to bring the impact of Yah‘s nature in my workplace. Don’t think about food and clothes and rent. He says I’m going to take care of that. Let me tell you why it’s so important, because you’re worried about the rent that’s what’s making you sick, you’re gonna die young and not finish your job. Next, listen to this, he says it’s only pagans who seek after these things. Matthew chapter 6 verse 33 says for the pagans run after. Now Yahusha spoke some interesting words, he says the pagans run after. Run after means having two jobs, run after means missing prayer meeting because you have to go to another job or not attending the teachings because you’re so busy trying to make more money. Run after means you are preoccupied. You are so consumed by trying to pay bills that, that is all you do in your life. Some people are working two jobs because they have to pay bills and they like the finer things of life. Here is this person running after things. You look old already as a young woman, because you are running after, but she’s not alone. This is going to take a while to get, but apparently according to Yahusha, you are not supposed to work for food. According to Yahusha, you’re not supposed to work For the water bill. This is deep now. Stay with me for the next few minutes because you are going to see. I got the revelation for you. Living this, but I want you to get the revelation. It’s so simple watch this. He says they run after all of those things. Now next the secret to the things in a kingdom is twofold. Write them down. Number one the secret to getting things in a kingdom is disposition and position. Now, let me explain that. If you want to have all your needs met in life all you need is position and disposition. Disposition is your kingdom citizenship. Position is your alignment with that kingdom. Christ says that’s all you need. Listen, I cannot explain what you saw this week on television. What I am trying to tell you is I am focused on the kingdom and living clean. That’s all he says to do. He says I will add stuff to you. He says look two things stop focusing on things. Learn kingdom citizenship. He said look, don’t seek things first seek kingdom citizenship, and then seek to align yourself with kingdom law, and everything. All of these things shall be added to your life. I know many of you won’t get this. Some of you will die and never get it. I hope it’s not you. Let’s take a look at things due to autonomy chapter 30. Yah says now listen to this watch this. Disposition means citizenship, position means alignment. That means keeping the laws of the kingdom. Listen to me you cannot expect to get Yah to add things to you if you’re living in sin. I know you think this is a good teaching, but you are killing yourself because here you are sending every day, Yah says I can’t bless you I can’t add anything to you fix your life, clean your life up and stop doing stuff because Yah is not a fool. He says if you seek first the kingdom that’s fine, but he also says righteousness. Live right, he says, I will add no more stress. If you are not living right, you have to work for food. You have to sweat to pay your bills if you are not living right. Look at this statement now all of us I’ve read this. But you have never read verse one. You keep missing verse one but you like verse nine. But you don’t reverse eight. Verse nine sounds good. The Most High will make you the most prosperous of all people, he will bless your livestock, but verse eight says IF…. you don’t get this blessing because you are born again. Righteousness, IF. IF you will again obey the Most High and follow all of his commands that I am giving you today then the Most High will make you the most prosperous, and all the works of your hands, and the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock, the crop of your land, the Most High will Again delight in you, and make you prosperous. Just as he is delighted in your father, IF you obey the Most High, your Yah, and keep his commandments and decrees that are written in this book of the law, and then turn to the Most High, your Yah, with all your heart, and with all your soul, then I will add to you. OK next let me show you something that is very important. Look at the next verse. It is amazing. Luke chapter 18. Peter said to Yahusha I left everything to follow you. We throw things in Yah‘s face. I gave this up to follow you. You didn’t give up anything. How can you give up something to someone who owns everything? He’s a king, he owns everything. So Peter began to throw stuff in his face. Peter says we have left all to follow you, look at Yahusha' response, he says, I tell you the truth Yahusha said no one has left HOME!!!!! or wife or brothers or partners or parents or children for the sake of what? The kingdom of Yah, and will not fail to receive many times more in this life and age and the age to come an eternal life. He said look, don’t you dare threaten me, you can’t give up nothing to follow the kingdom because everything in the world belongs to him. Whatever you give, he says I multiply it back to you because I own the one you don’t have. OK the first thing Man thinks about is things and I know that is what you’re struggling with so what you’re about to see next I call it the natural benefit of kingdoms. Write this down. Matthew chapter 6 verse 33. He says seek first, the kingdom of Yah and his righteousness. Now right this down, and now all of these things will be added to you as well. In other words, What you need to live on and live by. It comes with a package. You’re not supposed to live for those things or live to find them. You’re supposed to live for the kingdom's interest and these things are added to you. Here is a list I want you to write down on what addition means. The divine strategy I call it for provision. Yah wants to pay your bills. He wants you to have food. He wants you to have a nice house. He wants you to have a car. He wants you to have whatever you want and all the things that you desire. Matter-of-fact he wants to give you the dream in your mind but he doesn’t want you to put the dream in front of him. so he use the word added. I did my research on the word added. Here’s the word add. Add means first of all the things will be attracted to you. Write that down please, attracted to you. Number two things will find you. They will be like a magnet, they will come and find you. The things will come to your life you don’t have to go after them. To add means that the things will come without stress. 2 add means they will be given as favor and reward, not things you earned. Listen, if I add $50 to you that means that was a gift you didn’t earn that. Some of us are so tired working for what we want when we get it. We are too tired to enjoy it. There are people who work 40 years for a big house and now all the kids are gone and they have this big house and they can’t even stay home. That’s foolishness. You are wasting your life why? You pursue things and now you’re too tired. He says I want you to enjoy life without stress. 2 add also means you will receive without struggle. He says it will be added, no struggle. He says you will receive it without struggle. It will be natural. If something is added to you, it means that it naturally comes. To be added also means you will be given it as you need it. Some of you are praying for Yah to give you a 10 room house and there is only 2 of y’all. That’s the wrong prayer. Some of you are praying for a fancy car and right now the house you live in, you park in front of people want to know what’s wrong with your head because the car costs more than the house. He says I add as you need it daily. If you just want things for yourself to lock it down and tell people not to walk on your white rug Yah will keep the house from you. You little stingy thing you. He will add according to your need and you can determine your need by your willingness to serve the kingdom. I want to give you the house to keep people for Yah‘s kingdom so if you use the house for Yah’s people, then he will give you a big house but if you want a big house to compete with the Joneses, then this is why you are still renting. Peter says we ask and we receive not because we ask aMiss. He says Yah I want a nice car but you don’t use that car to help bring the kingdom to people. You want a nice car to keep tight your windows. To be added also means that you will not have to pursue them. They will pursue you. To be added also means that they will not be your source. They are added. They are not your source. This is very important. You have made your salary your source. Yah sent me I am under authority. I speak with Yah's authority today. May you be delivered from your salary in Yahusha name because you know it ain’t working. Listen, the fact that you can’t pay your bills with the salary is proof that you are not supposed to live off of it. Now to get us to shift to kingdom living is a tough one because we like to live on what we can see. Here’s the bottom line today write this down I call it the addition principle. This is the heart of the message right here the addition principle. What is the addition principle? Number one all that is needed for sustenance in life is in the obligation of the king that’s what he meant. In other words, a kingdom is opposite to a democracy. In a democracy, or a republic you can make your own living. That’s why you have the rich and poor in all democratic societies, but in the kingdom, there is no poor why? Because the king is obligated to take care of every citizen personally. The president does not take a personal interest in your needs. If they repossess your house, he does not care. They still go to bed. If you cannot pay your phone bill, the president does not lose sleep over that, his phone is on. But in a kingdom, see a kingdom is different. When Yahusha, says I am a king therefore, I am obligated to take care of your private needs. Can you imagine a government leader personally paying your phone bill? That is what he means, but only in a kingdom, not a religion. Now Christianity is a religion. It is not going to work for you. You have to come to the kingdom. He says if I am your king, I will take care of your personal and private needs. There’s a difference. I am obligated. Number two provision for life is the responsibility of the king and not the citizen. You know in a democracy the citizen is responsible for their own life. As a matter of fact, we pride ourselves on that in America, especially the United States, you know, that citizens have a right to pursue life and the good American life and prosperity. In other words, everybody goes their own way. But look at you, how are you really doing? Making your own way is not working and they encourage you to make your way. You know you have to join the rat race and you’ve got to try to get a piece of the pie but the pie is small And they give you the spirit you have to get this piece of the pie. People die just tasting crumbs. He said look, your provisions are not your responsibility if you are in a kingdom. I’m going to challenge you today before we pray. I want to take you to a point today where you make a decision to jump off of a cliff and expect Yah to catch you. I remember when I did that 15 years ago and everything changed. I jumped off a cliff and I said, " Yah if you don’t catch me everybody’s going to laugh at me but I’m going to believe you. Listen when I jumped instead of going down, I went up And I have never come down yet. Now I want you to do it for yourself. This Has to get into your spirit because it’s tough to break away from the system. The system is built for dependency depending on the system working your own way through this thing. Christ says stop worrying about this stuff. Why? It’s not your responsibility. It is the kings responsibility. Now don’t get me wrong. I know sometimes you could almost think that I’m asking you to be irresponsible, no, I am asking you to be more responsible for trusting the king. It takes more responsibility to live in the kingdom, then to live in the system of the world. Number three the addition principle means kingdom favor is the honor and provision of the king. He says, don’t worry about food. Your father knows you need these things. Don’t even pray about them he says don’t even tell your daddy about them. He knows you need them. So your prayer list should not be a list of things, your prayer should be thy Kingdom come thy will be done on earth. Influence, influence, influence, influence. Most High, I’m going to do this deal let your influence come into this boardroom because I like this guy. Then he will come into the room but if your prayer is how much money can I make today? Most High bless me with some money Most High bless me with some money. Most High bless me with good money Yah says wrong prayer. You are praying for more money, food and clothes. Yah says it’s the wrong prayer. Don’t worry about that. Pray for my kingdom to come, and my will to be done and keep your life clean. Number four addition means Man was never designed to pursue personal provisions, but rather the influence of heaven on earth. That’s what he meant. His desire was for us not to live for things, but to live for his influence. Here’s another one I want you to write down. I call it kingdom, provisions, and purpose. Number one provision is a byproduct of obedience. He said if you seek the kingdom, and my righteousness, and all the provisions for your life will be added to you. Now I know that some of you have been trying, I know some of you may be saying Dr. J, since you’ve been teaching, I’ve been trying to do this and nothing seems to be working right now, but listen I guarantee you if you capture today’s message listen and read this a few times you’re going to see results. I am living proof. He said, look provision is a byproduct of obedience. you are not going to get the stuff because you go to a church but you will get the stuff because you are living right. It is not the matter of it working you must check to see if you are working are you obeying the commands? If you obey the command, he says, then these blessings shall overtake you. Number two the principle of provision and prosperity and the kingdom is access not ownership or pursuit. Let me tell you what I mean by this and this one I caught called this years ago. Wealth in the kingdom of Yah is not having things stored up but having access to things that are stored up. He said look if you are trying to find food and water and clothes and house that means that they must be scarce, you are trying to get your piece, your share he said look in the kingdom of Yah they’re boundless amounts of all the stuff I don’t want you to try and get one or two of them. I want you to have a position where you get access to as many as you need when you need them. I will put it another way. You are my son and my daughter. OK I give you a choice. I am a multi billionaire. You are my son and my daughter. I say OK you have a choice I’m going to put $1 million in an account for you to live on or I can give you no account but you have access to all of mine. Perfect example he said you can pursue the million in your account. So you can say this is MY account, this is MINE or I can give you access to billions but one condition you get no account. You don’t own anything, you don’t own an account, that's what he means. Why do you worry what you will eat and what you will drink? Your father knows that you need these things, but seek first the kingdom interest, surrender yourself to the authority of the family. True wealth is not having… It’s access. Yah says in the kingdom there is no ownership if you want to own something and call it yours well then take your peace. That is where the prodigal son originates from. He was living in a house that had it all but he was more concerned about having what was his. Let me tell you something I pray and I prophesy in Yahusha name: whatever you own is going to run out and whatever you own they are going to be friends that take it from you and they are going to leave you in the pigpen. I guarantee you in Yahusha name. Yah has sent me to tell you to come back home. Stop being independent. Your robes are in the closet, your silver slippers are in the closet, the ring with authority to access. Anything is waiting on the table but you have got to come home. I want my own house no if you stay home, you get all the houses that daddy owns, I want my own clothes he says no here at home the closet is full. you have to stay focused on the kingdom and then live clean. Look at this next one Man was not created to work for provisions, but for purpose that is the bottom line. Write it down. Man was not created to work for provisions, but for purpose. He said, don’t worry about food, clothes, car, house, water but that’s why you’re working you see? He said don’t work for them anymore. You need to work for purpose. You work to fulfill your purpose in your job place. Your gift, your anointing your area of strength he says you go to work and use that for my kingdom. Don’t go to work to try to pay bills. He said that is not going to work. Go to work for a different reason. Let your motivation be I’m going to this place to bring the kingdom of Yah into the world. Number four Man was created to work out his assignment, not for a living. Man was created to work out his assignment, not for a living. In other words, Yah never designed you to work for a living. He designed you to work with your assignment in this place. I'm going to close with an example that he gives. Number five in the kingdom the assignment determines access. This is heavy stuff I’m giving you. The kingdom assignment determines access. Whatever you were born to do, that's how rich you are. If you’re trying to get rich so you can say that you’re richer than everybody else, your pursuit is going to kill you. And the kingdom of Yah, your assignment determines your access to the provisions of the king. Does anyone understand what I am talking about? It’s more important to find your assignment than to pursue things because the things that come into your life they come to fulfill his assignment in your life and if you need a $10 billion assignment the billion dollars will come in. So you don’t get wealth for yourself, you get wealth for the assignment. That's why he says don’t worry about that, pursue the kingdom assignment first and these things are added. Here’s another one, in the kingdom purpose attracts provision. In the kingdom, any assignment the king gives you he automatically provides for it. He owns everything. When the king said to Nehemiah and said, go and rebuild the wall, the king did not stop there. You have to read the whole sentence and he said the king said to Nehemiah go to my forest go and get all the wood. Go to my quarry and get all the rock you want, go to my forest and get all the Things that you want. In other words, he didn’t just say the assignment, he said here is the provision, and then he says here are some letters in case anyone tries to stop you. It is a king talking. Let’s wrap this up. Matthew chapter 6 Matthew chapter 6 verse 25 is not life more important than food? We live to buy food. Look at the statement. Life is more important than making a living for food. Look at the next statement, it's more important than clothes. He says your body is more important than clothes. He says look, your body really wasn’t made to wear clothes. Your body was created by me so that I could come into the Earth through your body and get my kingdom on earth. I want to do something through your body. It is not about the clothes that it was made for. Now the reason why Dr. J is all dressed up on the red carpet is because my assignment was to be in the middle of that and talk about the kingdom so he put the clothes on me. If you are a mechanic you do not need a suit so if your assignment is a mechanic, he will give you the best overalls. The body is not more important than you think it is. He says the body is more important than clothes. He’s trying to get you to understand that the body was made to perform something to fulfill an assignment on earth. Read the next part he says now here’s why he shifted. He says look at the birds of the air. Now he takes your word to the birds. He says look at the birds of the air. Please don’t miss this. He said look at the birds, study birds. You never thought about birds, that's why you are so pressured. He said look at the birds he said first of all they do not sow. Don’t miss this. They do not reap. They do not store up. He says look and yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than birds? OK I’m going to go now but get this Yah sent me home you see birds are weird. Let me tell you what he means he said look at the birds first of all they don’t so now what he means by this is you are never supposed to live off your efforts. OK, let me try again. Birds do not work to live. That’s what he means. They don’t reap. Birds don’t go out to collect. They don’t stall. Birds don’t hoard anything. He just describes your life. Every day you go in the traffic, what are you doing? You are sowing, You are working. By Friday you are so tired. Reaping means it’s payday. Sowing and reaping, going to work and getting paid and when it comes you say I gotta save this. I gotta buy this for me and I gotta store this up for me. He said, why don’t you look at the birds?" They’ve never found a bird with heart trouble. No bird has high blood pressure now they are living creatures. No birds have cancer. The number one source of disease is stress. Why did he say to look at the birds? He made them. He got all their psyche worked on. Matthew chapter 6 Why do you worry about clothes? See the lilies. They do not labor or spin and yet they wear better clothes and Solomon. Is he playing games with us? He’s trying to get you into kingdom living. He says look, set your priorities with the purpose, and I’ll produce provisions. It’s a heavy statement, write it down. Priority, with purpose, produces provision. Let me just close with this. A bird doesn’t try to be a horse. You still missed it. A bird never tries to be a fish. Let me try it again. He said look at the birds a bird never tries to be a monkey. a bird never tries to be a human. Principal, the bird simply preoccupies itself with being a bird. There won’t be anything else. The bird, all the bird wants to do is be a bird. Can you get this revelation? The bird only wants to fulfill its purpose as a bird, because the bird is not trying to be a fish or a monkey then the father gives the bird everything and needs to be a bird. I want you to go on the roof of your building when you are finished reading this teaching and jump and say I want to fly and I guarantee you Yah will make sure that you die. Why? Your purpose is not flying so he doesn’t add to you what you need to stay up. As a matter of fact, he has built something in you to pull you down. Am I making any sense? Your provision is tied to your purpose. Yah created a tree for the bird to build its nest. Yah created the tricks for the bird to put in the nest, Yah made cotton trees for the bird to have cotton to pack the nest. Yah made leaves for the bird to have shade for the nest. Yah made the wind for the bird to fly up to the branch to get to the nest to land on the branch to play it. Yah made the worms and they come up every morning for the birds. Do pets make you sick because they don’t work? All they do is just work at being a bird. Do you get it now? Work at being a kingdom representative and everything you need will be provided for you. I’m asking Yah to deliver you from a salary, get delivered from it, use the salary to activate kingdom living that’s all. Pray this prayer, heavenly father make me just like the bird I want to live to be what I am. I am your image, I am your likeness. I have been sent here to manifest your kingdom on earth and today I accept my assignment. I am a kingdom representative and everywhere that I go, every place that I am, I will pray your kingdom come, your will be done in this place as it is in heaven, and you will give me daily bread thank you. I am free from the pressure of competition of fear and scarcity. I have access to your boundless wealth. I am a kingdom citizen in Yahusha name.
