Kingdom Invasion


“…I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” 
Matthew 16:18(KJV)

What is a kingdom? The dictionary defines kingdom as 'the eternal kingship of God.' It also defines kingdom as 'the realm in which God's will is fulfilled.' Other dictionary definitions are; 'A realm or region in which something is dominant.' 'A politically organized community or major territorial unit having a monarchical form of government headed by a king or queen.’

In this month we will be focusing on kingdom invasion. Therefore, it is also important for you to know what it means to invade. 'To invade means to enter into a territory to conquer or plunder.' The word invade is from a Latin word 'invadere.' Invadere means 'to go in.’

Therefore when we are talking about kingdom invasion, we are talking about taking back territories held captive by the kingdom of darkness, and at the same time going into new territories and conquering them for the kingdom of God.

In Matthew 16:18 Jesus said, “…I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” It is important you know that gates demarcate territories. A gate also determines who can come in and who can come out of a territory. This means that when Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, “…I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” He actually meant that His church will invade the kingdom of darkness and overcome it. So as a child of God be conscious knowing that you are a member of a victorious and triumphant Church. Praise God.

PRAYER
Dear Father I thank you for the victory that you have given unto us in Christ Jesus. Therefore on account of your Word to us in this season,  may each one of us be empowered to reclaim old and conquer new territories for the advancement of your kingdom in Jesus Name. Amen.
