What is the Gospel?
If you ask ten Christians nine will say: Jesus died for my sins and if I believe in him as my Lord and Savior,
I am saved and at the end of my life I will go to heaven. Well all this is true and important but...
This is not the same Gospel Jesus taught. The Scriptures say:
- Mat 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom
- Mat 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom
- Mat 24:14 And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
- Mar 1:14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom of God
What is the Gospel of the Kingdom?
Jesus said the number one priority for people is
to seek the Kingdom/of heaven/of God.
If there is a kingdom there must be a king. God is the king:
1Ti 1:17
Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever.
The King has a name:
Mat 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of El Shaddai.
The King rules over spirits (angels -both good and bad) and most of creation, but at the moment,
does not rule over the earth. (Just look out your window). The King has a Prince who is His right hand man.
Act 5:31
Him/Jesus hath El Shaddai exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give
repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
At the end of the world
1Co 15:24
Then the end will come, when Jesus hands over the kingdom to El Shaddai, the Father
after El Shaddai has done away with every hostile ruler and every hostile authority and power.
1Co 15:25 For Jesus must rule until El Shaddai puts all his enemies under his feet.
1 Co 15:27 For the scripture says, El Shaddai put all things under his feet.
It is clear, of course, that the words all things do not include El Shaddai himself, who puts all things under Christ.
1 Co 15:28 But when El Shaddai puts everything under the anointed one's authority,
the Son/Jesus will put himself under El Shaddai 's authority, since El Shaddai
had put everything under the Son's authority. Then El Shaddai will be in control of everything.
There is Only One Way to Enter the Kingdom
Jesus said,
"Listen carefully to what I am telling you.
Except a man/woman/child be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of El Shaddai." (Joh 3:5)
The scriptures tell us
water is a symbol for the Gospel
Eph 5:26
the washing of water by the word.
Faith comes by hearing the words of the Gospel.
Rom 10:17
No one can have faith without hearing the message about Christ.
The words of the Gospel cause you to repent.
Act 3:19
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.
One more thing is needed it says you must be born of water and
the spirit.
El Shaddai is a spirit and his angels that he sends are spirits.
One special angel is the activator of the rebirth.
In the Old Testament El Shaddai realized that the only way people could reach his kingdom
was if they had new hearts and a new spirit/angel. He promised in Eze 11:19
I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and
I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them obedient tender hearts.
You cannot enter the Kingdom until you are born again with a new heart and a special birthing angel dwelling with you.
Are you ready? If you want the New heart, the New angel, the New birth, if you want to enter
the Kingdom, right this minute, say this prayer and mean it, and believe it.
Jesus, I believe the words you spoke. I know my heart is bad and I want a new heart,
a new spirit, and I want to enter the Kingdom now and be an obedient, loving child of El Shaddai forever.
Please take any bad spirits out of me and place the good spirits I need in me and come and live in my New heart. Amen
That's Not All, It's Only the Beginning
Now that you are in the Kingdom, you receive hundreds of Kingdom gifts.
- El Shaddai shares his righteousness with you.
- Jesus shares his joy ( a joy above all humans)
- Jesus shares his faith (you can heal the sick)
- Jesus shares his shalom (peace, well-being, safety, confidence)
- You have hope based on guarantees from El Shaddai.
- El Shaddai, Shepherd Jesus and angels protect you.
- The days of heaven come down to you. That does not mean you will not have trouble for the evil ones will try to sabotage you, but it means as you employ your kingdom gifts by faith, you will escape from all their traps.
- If you sin Jesus is there to cleanse you, and even though the Father will punish you, he will never forsake you. He gave his word and an oath and made a promise.
- Everything you put your hand to,that will bring glory to El Shaddai, will succeed.
- You have everlasting eternal life
- Your mortal body is given a quickening which means healing.
- You become a citizen of the faithful remnant true Israel
- You have Grace for every need
- You become the seed of Abraham and inherit all the Promises in the Bible.
- You are declared blameless, as if you had never sinned, for you receive a New Covenant.
- The New Covenant is not like the Old where a record was kept of all your sins. Under the new your sins are quickly erased and forgotten. Please don't think this means you can live a wild life of sin now. Every sin in the earth life carries unpleasant consequences.
The Kingdom provides healing, but it is better to never need it because of sins.
The Healing that Comes with the Kingdom
I was very excited when I first learned the central teaching of the Gospel was the Kingdom of God.
I knew that being born again made me a member of the kingdom forever and being a child of God could
never be taken away. Little did I know how much more I received when I became a child of the Beloved
Son's Kingdom. I had no idea that citizenship in the kingdom means no diseases can ever legally dwell
in my body.
It was only after a serious operation that my birthright was revealed to me. It goes like this.
The Kingdom Citizen's birthright is identical to our brother Jesus's, we are co-heirs and what's more
1Pt 1:3 says we have also been begotten by El Shaddai. We share the divine nature, we share
the same Spirit. El Shaddai is in us and we are in El Shaddai. Jesus is in us and we are in Jesus.
We have been declared innocent just as if we had never sinned. El Shaddai's own righteousness has
been given to us. Just like Jesus we have been given power over all spirits.
But there was one small problem. It all hangs on our faith. All of this could be ours if we
believed it with every fiber of our being.
The just shall live by faith.
As I lay cut up/doped up /swelled up full of chemicals, bruised and weak I wondered if I had the faith of a mustard seed.
It was then I remembered the scripture
Rom 12:3
God hath dealt to everyone the measure of faith.
That's all I needed and my healing was finished 2,000 years ago at the cross.
I expected to jump right out of bed. The evil one whispered, "where is your mustard seed faith now?"
How true this verse is
My people perish for lack of knowledge. I had come to death's door shaking and with
teeth clattering. Why? Because I even though I knew I would never see death and that all my sins were left
in the Old Covenant, and God saw me as sinless in the New Covenant.
I did not know that habitual sin brings shame and the great deceiver moved into
on my life through what was perceived as an open door.
Once in my body and thoughts,
he foiled me with worries about riots, the economy, wars etc.
I had a steady diet of toxic negativity. I would eat and read the news in front of my computer.
Slowly, but surely, the evil one brought in lust demons and built a circus of horrors in my body to the point that I reached the ER room and then to the cutting table. As I languished under the trauma, the evil one was whispering his accusations in my ear you're a sexual abuser, you are a racist, you are a misogynist, you are an intellectual snob, you really hate people especially Christians etc. Not remembering that in the Kingdom, El Shaddai sees me as sinless, but in the bio world I admitted that I was guilty on all counts.
After 6 days I returned home and was praying for healing. I began rebuking the evil one and he would say. "Jesus healed everyone instantly why are you not healed? It's all a fairy tale".
On night two I went to my computer in great pain to look up scriptures on healing and I hit
a site called http://savedandhealed.com. I read one line "Are you looking for a miracle or healing?
Miracles are instantaneous and healings are progressive. I realized I was expecting an instant miracle.
Now I had an answer for the devil.
At that moment my computer froze and it took me several moments of rebooting and actually changing
the batteries in my mouse, but I was able to get back to savedandhealed.com and the author Dan Downey
began to explain what it means to be in the Kingdom.
The kingdom is a disease free zone. Only by illegally deceiving a kingdom child, can the devil enter.
Just as Jesus has no sicknesses or diseases, anyone who knows their birthright cannot be touched by them.
That doesn't mean we will not have trials and persecutions,
but it means we will emerge victorious for the king, and his children, have never lost a battle.
I also learned that praising God vocally helps set things in motion. He sent his word and healed me
and it accomplished what it set out to do and did not return void.
If I had been armed with this knowledge when the pains began, I could have declared my birthright, parentage,
union with the Father and son and would not have gone under the knife. It will never happen again.
I am writing this so other kingdom citizens will be prepared. By the way this healing extends to your relationships, you finances, your weight, your mental state etc.
It extends to every area of your life that is out of harmony. It also covers your children (like a family insurance plan).
Isn't El Shaddai Great?
Shalom
