The key to living a victorious Kingdom life is based upon the strength of your faith in Jesus the Christ and His Father God. The Lord Jesus is King of all kings and Lord of all lords. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Matthew 28:18 Together they will go to war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will defeat them because He is Lord of all lords and King of all kings. Revelation 17:14a NLT
Keep this in mind; your total faith in the King is the key to your healing. There was a case when the King was approached by a man concerning his son. The man had asked the King’s disciples to heal him, but they couldn’t. This is what King Jesus told His disciples: And when they had come to the multitude, a man came to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying, “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him.”
Then Jesus answered and said, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me.” Matthew 17:14-17 King Jesus rebuked them for their lack of faith. When the question was asked by them, this was King Jesus’ reply: And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.
Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. Matthew 17:18-20 Also note that the Lord Jesus referred to the son’s condition as a demon. Jesus saw it and called it for what it was.
King Jesus made it very plain, “Seek FIRST His Kingdom”. But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Matthew 6:33
The problem that we have is that we seek first man’s solution, rather than believing the Lord God’s Word.
Are you aware that one of the Lord Jesus’ disciples was a physician? His name was Luke. Yet we never read where they took any of the sick, blind or lame first to him. In fact those who were delivered by our Lord and King were said to “have the Kingdom of the Lord God come upon them”.
When speaking of demons, Jesus said, But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the Kingdom of God has come upon you.” Matthew 12:25-28 Healing is an attribute of the Kingdom of God. But when faith isn’t strong, the first thought in times of sickness, pain or injury is doctors and medicine. King Jesus is our last resort, not our first.
“Seek FIRST. . . “
If you want to evaluate the strength of your faith in the Lord God’s Word, see how you respond to trouble, crisis, sickness or loss. Personally, in those times I strengthen my faith with His Word in His Constitution. His Word strengthens my faith every time because I believe what He says. I know that the Lord God’s Constitution is Holy Spirit inspired and led. I know it is the Word of God and the answer to all my problems. I don’t know everything or have all the answers, but my Lord God, the Father, does! This is why I have submitted my life to consistently reading and studying it. I have submitted my life to my King and His Governor--the Holy Spirit.
I recall what the ambassador Paul stated to the citizens of the Kingdom in Rome: And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all He has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind He will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:1-2 NLT
When you submit your will (mind and emotions) to the Governor—His Holy Spirit—you can never be misled. For those who live by faith as a lifestyle, healing is a normal part of life in a Kingdom citizen’s life.
Our faith leads us to a victorious life, not because of what we do or who we are, but because of WHOSE we are and knowing all things are possible because of our Lord and King. Afterward the disciples asked Jesus privately, “Why couldn’t we cast out that demon?”
“You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible. Matthew 17:19-20 NLT
But, if you fail to trust the King, you cannot please Him. But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11:6
For everyone born of God is victorious and overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has conquered and overcome the world—our [continuing, persistent] faith [in Jesus the Son of God].
Who is the one who is victorious and overcomes the world? It is the one who believes and recognizes the fact that Jesus is the Son of God. 1 John 5:4-5 AMP
Your faith in the King is your greatest assert in His Kingdom.
