THY KINGDOM COME
The Lord Jesus Christ never preached that the Kingdom has already come. Joseph of Arimathea, one of His Disciples, knew this and was himself waiting for the Kingdom to come.
And, behind, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and just: he was of Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God – Luke 23:50-51

The Kingdom of God is not just spiritual, it’s also physical. When it comes, no one will have to convince you it’s here. You’ll see it with your own eyes. We’re currently experiencing the kingdom of this world. That’s why His Will is not being done on earth as it is in Heaven.
That’s why there’s so much sickness, famine, poverty, war, prejudice, pain, suffering and death. But the Good News is, when the Kingdom arrives, it will displace the kingdom of this world and there’ll be no more pain, no more sorrow and no more death. Thy Kingdom come, thy Will be done, Lord. Glory to God!
CONFESSION
When the Kingdom comes, it will displace the kingdoms of this world. Then Revelation 11:15 will come true, ‘And the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdom of our Lord and His Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.’ Glory to God!
