"Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, 'The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!'" Revelation 11:15.

God has made a bold declaration that He will position His believers in the kingdoms (societies) of this world. Jesus told us to pray: "Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Matthew 6:10. God's will has both a spiritual and a practical aspect to it. We must pray and we must also 'go' and 'do'. We are God's Kingdom Enforcers (people of influence) in the kingdoms of this world. Your influence, good or bad, will affect people's lives and communities.
One of the powerful Kingdoms of Influence is 'The Family'. The family is the core of society and therefore a breakdown in healthy families causes breakdown in communities and nations. The family is the incubator that creates healthy people for good influence in our world. You can be a good role model for your family through prayer, counsel, practical help, love and good will. Your prayer will be a protective covering for your family: "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved - you and your household." Acts 16:31. You are influential.
Religion is also a powerful kingdom as it controls the minds, cultures, systems, and human behavior. By believing in Jesus Christ you are powerful with access to God for divine intervention in the affairs of others. As you believe, pray, serve, work, and play remember that God has positioned you in the kingdoms of this world to represent Him and to advance His Kingdom. You are born and alive for such a time as this.
Kingdom Declaration:
I am a Kingdom Enforcer to influence my world with the love and glory of Jesus Christ.
Happy Friday
