BATTLE OF THE KINGDOMS ....Timeless truths and fundamental revelations for winning




Towards the close of the year 2014, we took out time to stay before the Lord in prayers. As we waited, HE began to show us His agenda for the year 2015 AND BEYOND. Hence what I’m sharing with you is the blue print of Gods prophetic agenda and battle strategy for the end time Christian who wants to subdue kingdoms for Christ. As the Lord led us through, we began to see why certain battles get prolonged and believers become victims. I implore you to give serious attention to understand what God is saying.
The world in which we live is made up of 3 KINGDOMS; the first is
1.      THE KINGDOM OF MEN “…Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. Matt 4:8 NIV
This involves the animal kingdom, plant, United Kingdom, Africa, Europe, and all the continents of the world. Irrespective of colours; red, white, black, or yellow or technological advancement or sophistication, all these constitute the world-the kingdom of men. It is the domain where men live and rule. The world system- the earth
The second is
2.      THE KINGDOM OF GOD.  From that time on Jesus began to preach, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." Matt 4:17NIV.
This is the domain of God where you see the fullness of His power and glory. It is commonly seen as HEAVEN. This is where the Angels, Cherubs, Seraphs and the spirit of saints dwell. So many believe when they die, they will rest in this realm and enjoy eternally. True, however there is more to know about this realm and its operations.
The third
3.      THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS.For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, Col 1:13 NLT
This is commonly known as the pit of hell, where demons live, so many have seen these places in their dreams while others have been there.
So let’s get it clear, all these realms are real. To say they don’t exist is to deny reality
……
The kingdom of God and that of Satan seek are invisible kingdoms which seek to find expression in the Kingdom of men. These two forces are out to control every human being; Irrespective of your continent, race or tribe. There is an invasion. To buttress this point, hear what Jesus said “The thief comes ...  And I have come… Jn 10:10 NIV.

HISTORY OF THE KINGDOMS
Looking at the trends of kingdoms over time, we discover that the Persian kingdom ruled for 208 years, after which they were conquered by the Grecian empire who ruled for185 years however the Grecian empire lost to the Roman kingdom who in turn ruled for ruled for 1307 years. The strategy of the kingdoms was exemplified by the ROMAN KINGDOM. Unlike the other kingdoms who conquer their adversaries and take them into captivity as slaves, the ROMAN KINGDOM conquers their territory, and allows their victims to remain there, maintain their homes and jobs, however they send a governor to teach them, and make them loyal to the roman laws. The Romans offer their captors provision, protection etc. at the price of their allegiance.
This remains the reason why they remained in power for over a thousand years (146 BC- AD 1453)
In the same vein, the kingdom of God and that of the devil seek to infiltrate the kingdom of men, offer protection, prosperity etc. at the cost of men’s allegiance. The difference is, God is our creator (who deserves it) while Satan is just an opportunist.
God does not seek to take His agents away to Heaven straightaway. He wants them to be ambassadors, emissaries, agents, to teach, influence, and educate humanity on the culture, values and life of the kingdom of heaven.

Several believe that we are at war against demons, and evil forces; others believe Satan hates us that why he keeps attacking. Hear this today; Satan has no business with YOU. Here is the account of the genesis of this warfare “And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down — that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. Rev 12:7-9 NIV
If you don’t understand the point where the battle started, you will not walk in total victory. IT IS A BATTLE OF THE KINGDOMS!!! It was actually an angelic battle that became a human battle!

Originally Satan who was called Lucifer in heaven was one of the arch angels whose body was made with precious stones… He sought to become like God and led a rebellion with angels he had persuaded
.And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their own home — these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day. Jude 6 NIV

God delegated the arch angel Michael and he cast the devil down and they were trapped in another state.
How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain.  I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High." But you are brought down to the grave, to the depths of the pit. Isa 14:12-15 NIV

However that position of becoming like God was now given to man at creation “So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them… Gen 1:27 NIV  
Hence jealousy began and the fight for supremacy ensued.

Whatever you see happening in the world today is a function of one of these kingdoms. These two kingdoms have emissaries and ambassadors who represent their interest and create a conducive atmosphere for their activities. So when you the anti-gay law was endorsed by the Nigerian government, it was an advancement of the kingdom of heaven. On the other hand, the Obama health care scheme with chips on the forehead and right thumb, we can clearly define where it emanated from! When a witch threatens you, don’t be mistaken it is an entire coven that is against you. However when a believer speaks, he or she is declaring not from an individual view, but from the Almightiness of the kingdom of Heaven. Check it out; the Lord’s Prayer never had an individual perspective…. OUR father, give US, Thy kingdom. It has the background of a people, a kingdom

One day a man Daniel discovered neither he nor his people were supposed to be in captivity. He started fasting and praying as an ambassador of the kingdom of heaven! Immediately he began, the Kingdom of heaven responded to him. Here is the account
 …. I looked up and there before me was a man dressed in linen, with a belt of the finest gold around his waist.  His body was like chrysolite, his face like lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and his voice like the sound of a multitude. ..
 …Then he continued, "Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them.  But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was detained there with the king of Persia.  Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the future, for the vision concerns a time yet to come." Dan 10:4-14 NIV

FIRSTLY, looking at the appearance of the angel, it doesn’t look like Daniels category.
Secondly, it was clear that it was a war between PRINCES.
THIRDLY, my question is, if the PRINCE OF PERSIA could detain AN ANGEL, WHAT WILL HE DO TO AN ORDINARY HUMAN BEING? (You must understand that even the born again believer is a delegated authority. Those who have had dealing with angels before will bear witness that it’s not as smooth as what several preachers profess)
Listen, the battles are beyond you, yes I know you are born again and you have faith, even God said. The battle is mine! 2 cor. 10:4 says it is mighty THROUGH GOD!

TESTIMONY ON THE POWER OF THE KINGDOM
Hear this testimony. Two of our brothers by name Christopher and Joseph after one of our power nights where I shared this teaching were suddenly called upon. A young girl was in torment, she stepped on a charm. There was pandemonium in the house, everybody was shivering, there were not sure she would make it to the next day. At about 10pm at night, when they got there they asked the mother and all those fidgeting to stay outside. Then they remembered that whatsoever is happening is  ‘THE BATTLE OF THE KINGDOMS’ they told the family “the other kingdom have displayed their power, now we will the display the power of the kingdom we represent” that very same hour, the girl got up, completely healed and delivered by the power of the kingdom

OTHER EXAMPLES OF KINGDOM BATTLES IN EARTHLY REGIONS
When David wanted to fight Goliath who was a giant, the scriptures records that Goliath cursed David in the name of his gods! (1 Sam. 17:42-50.)  This shows he wasn’t standing alone, he was an emissary of his gods. That was when David also took the battle into another level as in agent of the kingdom… we all know who won the day.  I give you another instance, when pharaoh refused to let Israel go, it looked like a political decision not until the magicians came from behind the curtains then it became obvious that it was a diabolical decree.

FINAL CHALLENGE
My greatest pain is that several decrees in the nations of the world seems to be political or economical in nature, however if you dig deep, they are satanically orchestrated and Gods people are being deceived.
The challenge as I bring this edition to a close is to call you to wake up. If you really have faith, where are the kingdoms you’ve subdued? (Heb. 11:33) You represent a kingdom; don’t fight as an individual, fight from your kingdom. You are not just representing your family, you are representing a kingdom. It’s not about me, it’s about the kingdom. “Who shall I send, and who will go FOR US” is Gods demand to everyone He calls! I belong to Gods kingdom and I know that as I pray for you, forces will be sent from our kingdom to enforce my requests.
Each time you pray, or carry out any duty of the kingdom, the forces of the kingdom are released to your office, homes and schools. You are not just an ordinary person. You are not just a lonely born again Christian folk, NO! You are an agent of the kingdom, an ambassador of heaven. When you pray heaven fights for you!

A PRAYER FOR YOU
I DECREE AND DECLARE THAT BY THE SUPERIORITY OF GODS KINGDOM, ANY KINGDOM FIGHTING AGAINST OUR NATION, YOUR FAMILY, BUSINESS, EDUCATION, MINISTRY IS CRUSHED FOREVER IN JESUS NAME
Till we come your way again, stay blessed.

One day a man Daniel discovered neither he nor his people were supposed to be in captivity. He started fasting and praying as an ambassador of the kingdom of heaven! Immediately he began…. Dan 10:4-14
 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was standing on the bank of the great river, the Tigris, I looked up and there before me was a man dressed in linen, with a belt of the finest gold around his waist.  His body was like chrysolite, his face like lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and his voice like the sound of a multitude. ..

…A hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees. He said, "Daniel, you who are highly esteemed, consider carefully the words I am about to speak to you, and stand up, for I have now been sent to you." And when he said this to me, I stood up trembling.

 Then he continued, "Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them.  But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days.
