Kingdom Priorities
There are certain priorities that cannot be overlooked in the Kingdom of God; in fact, God has prioritized key elements as essential in His Kingdom. I will share with you what I believe are some of the most important priorities in the believers walk.
1) An undying love for God – The true believer must have an undying love for God!
When presented with the question of which is the greatest commandment Jesus’ response was that you must love God with your entire being. Matthew 22: 36 – Luke 10: 25-27
•Heart > life, passion, desires, appetites, affections, purposes, will
•Soul > The breath of life
•Mind > Understanding, way of thinking
•Strength > Force, ability, might
The very thought of being in the kingdom without loving the King is absolutely ridiculous.
Our love for God is not acted out or demonstrated on the surface, our love for God our commitment to Jesus is a condition of the heart. Isaiah 29:13 – Matthew 15: 7-8 – Matthew 6:21
•Treasure > Valuables, Precious things
a) Your love for Jesus and level of commitment will always be tested. John 21: 16 – Revelations 2: 4
1. Has your love for Jesus been replaced by your love for self and the things of the world?
2. Who do you value more; God or you?
Have love for each other
1.Your love for Jesus must extend too and be directed toward others.
Ephesians 5: 1 – Hebrews 13:1 – 1John 4:7-8 (born of God =begotten of God)
Our love for each other is a by-product of our love for God. It’s impossible to truly love Jesus while harboring hatred in your heart for others.
•If you have hate in your heart for others; you haven’t truly surrendered or submitted yourself to God.
(AMP) John 13:34: I give you a new commandment: that you should love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too should love one another. 35 By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves].
2) Have Faith in God – Mark 11:22 / Hebrews 11:6
Just how important is faith from God’s perspective? How much value does God put on faith; and is it the amount of faith or the quality of faith that produces the desired thing? When we think of faith and the many definitions used to describe it, we can conclude that the body of Christ may not clearly understand or know what faith is.
•One very basic truth concerning kingdom faith is that it’s putting into action what you believe based upon God’s Word.
•Faith begins where the Word (will) of God is Known
Faith instructions are given throughout the bible; the benefits of the instructions will not be realized however if you refuse to follow the instructions.
•Faith instruction determines faith direction; your faith is only as strong as the object it’s directed toward. When the faith instruction that’s provided in Mark 11: 22 is followed, God becomes the object of your affection, not the thing you desire.
•The object of your affection determines its quality and ability to manifest the desired thing. Jesus said “ All Power in heaven and earth has been given unto me”
“Have faith in God”, God should be the object of your faith.
The God Kind of Faith: What does God have faith in? What is the God Kind of Faith? In order to understand the God kind of faith we need to know what God has faith in. Genesis 1: 1-3, verse 3 let’s us know that God released His Word and His Word produced. Isaiah 42: 21 (AMP) Isaiah 42: 21 It was the Lord’s pleasure for His righteousness’ sake [in accordance with a steadfast and consistent purpose] to magnify instruction and revelation and glorify them. Psalm 138: 2
i) God has faith in His Word (honorable =Him)
ii) He promotes and makes His Word powerful (magnify)
•Faith has to operate within its purpose; when faith operates outside of kingdom purpose, it can’t produce kingdom promises. Matthew 6: 33 ( kingdom=royal power, rule, dominion of God)
When you release faith for things but refuse to release faith to love, you are not releasing faith for kingdom purpose. Exodus 32: 7 – 14
Moses put God in remembrance of kingdom purpose.
God has the Faith to Love first: I John 4: 19 – 21 Kingdom realities don’t make sense. We are commanded to love the good, the bad and the ugly. God’s faith can’t fail because everything that God does is anchored by Love. John 3:16
You must be willing to love first – the God kind of faith is willing to love beyond the hurt, love beyond the disappointment, love beyond the heartache. Romans 5: 8
Love empowers your faith to operate in the dimension of the kingdom and call those things that be not as though they were.
