Immediately after his Sermon on the Mount Jesus enacts his kingdom in supernatural and miraculous ways. His kingdom is not just one of talk, it is also one of power. He goes first to outsiders - purity, racial, gender and social outsiders. This is a prophetic act. All those who receive from him do so, not purely because they are marginalised. Importantly the choose to come under his authority, and they act in faith. To do these two things is at the heart of what it means to follow Jesus.
