An Everlasting Kingdom

In last week's blog, I mentioned God's amazing promise that His Kingdom System is to replace the order and the ungodly systems that dominate our world today. Let's examine this a little further. Where in our Constitution do we find this promise? 

"15 The seventh angel then blew [his] trumpet, and there were mighty voices in heaven, shouting, The dominion (kingdom, sovereignty, rule) of the world has now come into the possession and become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ (the Messiah), and He shall reign forever and ever (for the eternities of the eternities)!" - Revelation 11:15 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

A multi-dimensional promise worth holding on to. This agrees with Daniel’s prophecy recorded in the second chapter of Daniel.

Our God’s order, His method, His System, and the power that are contained in that order are to reign forever. Daniel declared that His Kingdom would smash or crush all the other kingdoms (Systems) of this world into nothingness.

Let’s see what the Holy Spirit God revealed to us through Daniel.

"44 During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed or conquered. It will crush all these kingdoms into nothingness, and it will stand forever." - Daniel 2:44 New Living Translation

The Holy Spirit God had just described the successive governments of this world, beginning with the Babylonians, the Medes, the Persians, the Greeks, and the Romans. He definitively declared that during the reign of the Roman Government His Kingdom would be established on the earth and that His Kingdom would never be conquered, and that His Kingdom would reign forever.  To do so it must replace the other kingdoms of this world.  

He further explained that the dimension and the reign of the Kingdom of God -- His Kingdom -- is to replace the present unworkable order of the present operating system of this world both individually and collectively in society. 

Jesus was speaking literally and physically. This was not a hypothetical statement, or a hope, but a declaration of what is to happen, and of what will be. This is the hope we have in Jesus and His Everlasting Kingdom.
