The Gospel of
the Kingdom of Elohim (cont.)
by Dave R. Mode, Jr.
When the believer is born
of Spirit, he or she is given authority in the spirit realm over the prince
of this world (Satan) and his demonic kingdom. Messiah gave this authority
to the believer when he gave the keys of the kingdom to his disciples.
“And I will give unto thee
the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth
shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall
be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 16:19).
The keys of the kingdom being
given to the believer marks dominion being restored in the spirit realm.
This kingdom authority in the spirit realm gives the believer the ability
by faith to live in the the same supernatural authority and power that
Messiah lived in by the Spirit. The same works that Yahshua performed, the
believer can also perform. As a matter of fact Messiah said “greater works
shall you do”. In the earth realm the believer has the authority
to bring light, life, deliverance,healing and wholeness to those bound
by the curse of sin. By operating in this authority the believer destroys
the works of the devil and expands the kingdom of Elohim in preparation for
Messiah’s return when the kingdom of Elohim is visibly manifested.
When Messiah returns to establish
his visible kingdom, restored dominion to the redeemed people of Elohim will
become complete. At that time the whole earth will be subject to the authority
of Yahshua and the redeemed people that will reign with him.
The coming new earth and
new heavens will be the final phase of restoration pertaining to the kingdom
of Elohim. There will be no more pain, no more sickness, no more sin, and
no more death. There will be eternal conditions in which the Most High
will dwell with redeemed mankind on the new earth as he did with Adam prior
to the fall. During this eternal state redeemed mankind will be regarded
as kings and priests. This will be the outcome of what YHWH has purposed
through the gospel of the kingdom.
“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the set-apart city, new Jerusalem, coming down from YHWH out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of YHWH is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and YHWH himself shall be with them, and be their Elohim. And YHWH shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his Elohim, and he shall be my son” (Rev. 21:1-7 RNKJV).
Elohim is calling on “whosoever
will” to respond and receive this kingdom inheritance. Be born again by
receiving Yahshua as Savior and enter the kingdom of Elohim (see John
ch. 3).
