In Dealing with Desires Part 5, Pastor Mike Darnell took us to a new level of understanding when it comes to God’s desires by diving into what is driving our desires. As citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven, we have a responsibility to reflect the desires of the King and to administer His government on Earth. The only way to do that is to understand and fully execute the Kingdom mandate. God is looking for fruit that will satisfy His desire. He’s looking for His offspring, those who have his DNA, those who are rooted in His kingdom and His culture. The world has gotten so far away from the desires of the King, and this installment of the Dealing with Dealing series serves as a wake-up call. It’s time to address our programming in order to change our desires. We must repent, enter a different school of thought, prioritize Kingdom education, and transform the world beginning with the renewing of our minds. The Kingdom is at hand!
God desires to give you a great destiny, a Kingdom destiny, however, most people will not see the will of God manifested in their lives because of pride. The truth is we all have questions concerning our lives and destinies but we must seek answers through the will of God and the Holy Spirit. Pastor Ghilaine Darnell taught us in Dealing with Desires part 4 that the Bible is the will of God! We must understand that God’s will is the blueprint for all of our lives. In this installment of the series, you will discover God’s desires. When it comes to everything concerning your life, it is written. God has desires and we have our desires but only one will prevail. What will you choose?
Desires are not proof of truth. People are often misled by their desires because desires tend to manifest from jealousy and covetousness. Seeking what is pleasing to our five senses or our carnal nature leads to adultery. As we will unfold in this installment of the series, adultery is more intricate than we naturally think. We must be aware of what we choose as our source of information because the enemy is strategic and tactical in the way that he entices mankind. In turn, we must intentionally learn the truth, understand it, and commit to completely assimilating into the Kingdom of God so we can fulfill the Kingdom mandate. We only desire what we are trained to and to change our desires we need new information. Getting a Kingdom education is the only way to change our desires.
Everything is driven by desire. We live in a world that is driven by our carnal nature and the preferences of mankind. We have been programmed to desire certain things and our desires are reflected in our words and actions. In Dealing with Desire part two, we went on a journey to understand where desires come from and how we must approach reprogramming our minds back to the Kingdom to ensure our desires align with the King’s desires. God desires for us to have the Kingdom. As Kingdom citizens, we must seek and understand the desires of God so that we can ditch the narrative created by our cultural upbringing and get back to God’s original design.
If you look at the world, desires are running things. Most people don’t know what to do with their desires and are ruled by their desires, good or bad. Desires shape and build reality. They even illustrate our intention. Desires relate to everything even the release of the presence of God. The activity of your desire can create a framework through which God can flow. Desire is the blueprint and having the mind, intentions, and desires of God we create the right vessel. How things manifest in our lives and how they arrive are based on design and it all starts with desire. We must learn to seek the Kingdom of God and allow God to satisfy our desires. In this series, you get a real look into the truth about desires. Get ready and take notes!
In High Stakes Part Six, the series finale, we learned about seizing opportunities, divine encounters, and divine appointments. We must learn to adjust and adapt when there is conflict and opposition in life because conflict is required for the next level. Proper Kingdom training prepares you for that. God has put protocols in place to set our expectations and to prepare us to rule with Him. Protocols are the prerequisite to God Unleashing His power and God is waiting for us to put certain things in place before He can move.
Protocol is for preparation and it’s how you can either seize big opportunities or cause offenses and close doors. In High Stakes part 5 we talked about the secret power of gift-giving, which is one of the most powerful weapons of influence. Gifts speak long after they are given. That’s why we have to learn the art of strategic gift giving to build relationships and to build a good reputation. We must learn to be skillful and diplomatic in every exchange understanding the significance of gift-giving in the Kingdom of God. Get ready to go on an educational journey through the scriptures with Pastor Mike Darnell in this installment of the High Stakes series.
The basis of protocol is to form a path to allow effective communication between two different cultures to accomplish a specific goal. God’s goal is to establish His Kingdom on the Earth, so He requires highly skilled Kingdom citizens known as disciples to follow protocol so that the Kingdom of Heaven can be settled, developed, and demonstrated all throughout the Earth. Part of protocol is the Power of Place. Where you do things is an important part of protocol. It’s critical to the influence because if you do the right thing in the wrong place, it changes how it’s received. Places have a purpose as they help to prepare the mind for what’s about to happen. The place tells the intention of the meeting, so as disciples on diplomatic assignments, we have to properly prepare by elevating our kingdom cultural IQ so that we can use the power of place effectively as diplomats preparing the way for the King and His Kingdom to inhabit the Earth.
Everything you need is hanging in the balance of knowing the protocol. Why? Because protocol prepares people to receive things correctly. What you honor comes to you. What you dishonor moves away from you. Whatever you are educated on, you recognize. You can only recognize what you’re taught to recognize. It is imperative to increase your Kingdom IQ because the educational protocol determines how much you receive. If you cannot recognize the Kingdom, it prevents you from receiving it. Knowing how the Kingdom of God functions teaches you how to properly prepare for the King.
