In episode 374, Kim answers the question that we are NOT builders of God's Kingdom. God's Kingdom has already been built. No assembly is required on our part.

So, what is God's Kingdom? Part 2 of this series reveals, in scripture, what the Kingdom is God is in simple terms.

The Kingdom of God can be simply defined in a single sentence. The Kingdom of God is the revelation and the reign of Jesus Christ over ALL creation. All creation including the heavens and the earths, past and present, all created beings regardless of whether you believe in Him or not. It is the revealing of Jesus Christ and the rule (the exercise of His authority and power) over everything.

The Kingdom of God is NOT the worldwide or local churches. It's not even the church. It's NOT your prayers, fasting, knowledge of scripture, declarations or decrees, anointing or ministry, nor is it possessions or bank accounts. It's not prosperity or healing. It's not the church's outreach programs or revivals. It's not even your faith.

The Kingdom of God rises and falls on the King and Him alone, and the King is Jesus Christ. As believers we are called to expand the kingdom, first in our own lives and then outward to others, by extending the revelation and the reign of Jesus Christ to those who know Him and to those who don't. We are Christ's witnesses in the earth to our families, our relationships, our nation and beyond.

In scripture. Jesus reveals to us that He is "the way, the truth and the life".  Paul wrote in Romans that the Kingdom of God is a matter of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Connect the dots: The "way" is righteousness; the "truth" is peace, and the "life" is joy. If we follow the way it is righteousness. If we receive the truth we will have peace. If we desire the life we will experience joy.

In order for the Kingdom to be a revealing and ruling of Christ, then Jesus MUST BE ALL OF THESE. Jesus IS all of these things.

Let's start with RIGHTEOUSNESS. Jesus was foretold by Jeremiah that the Lord will "raise up for David a righteous branch, and He shall reign as King… And this is the name by which he will be called: 'The Lord is our righteousness'". Righteousness is a person - JESUS IS RIGHTEOUSNESS! Paul and John also confirmed that Jesus is righteous, and the Holy Spirit will testify of Jesus.

Righteousness is NOT what you do. It's what you believe, and what you believe will inform what you do. Righteousness [Jesus] came so we become something we were not. No one is righteous unto themselves.

Jesus describes the Kingdom of God to his disciples through The Beatitudes in Matt 5:1-11. "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." As Jesus continued, He was saying that, up until that time, the Jews were poor in spirit, they mourned; they were meek; they hungered for something better; they were persecuted. The Jews were lost… BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE THE SPIRIT OF GOD.

Through The Beatitudes, Jesus was talking about Himself. He was revealing Himself to them and the promise of God to His people!

The Kingdom of God is the revelation (revealing) and the reign (rule) of Jesus Christ over ALL creation.
