In every way we are to reflect who takes priority in our lives. If the king is corrupt, then his Kingdom will be characterized by corruption, oppression, evil and injustice. It becomes a domino effect. Such was the experience of millions of people, including the early believers in Christ, under the rule of the Roman Empire. Keep in mind, the Roman Empire endured a succession of evil and depraved rulers and the quality of life across the empire reflected it. Now the King of Ages, however, rules with absolute love, benevolence, and equanimity (meaning the quality of remaining calm and undisturbed, evenness of mind or temper, composure) In addition, the wealth of the kingdom will be reflected in the lifestyle of its people. If the kingdom is rich and the king is good, the people of that kingdom will be well off. If the kingdom is poor, or the king is corrupt, the people will live in poverty. Our kingdom belongs to a king, who owns everything. The earth is the Lord's and everything in it. King David made this statement The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein. He also reminds us: The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s; but the earth He has given to the children of men.
In the Kingdom, you never have to concern yourself with riches and healing, or even the sunlight. Read what King David stated in God's Constitution: For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. Walking uprightly, in essence, is living by His Word. Paul the representative and ambassador for the Kingdom stated this in God's Constitution: And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. He will supply everything we need here on earth, but not necessarily from the earth. His supply will come to us from the limitless riches in Heaven.
In other words, our needs can be met based on how much the Kingdom has. Unlimited resources mean unlimited provision. There is no lack in the Kingdom of heaven. No, none at all. Remember what King Jesus told us to do: But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. In essence, if we place our top priority on seeking first the Kingdom and righteousness of God, then His government and all our basic necessities as Kingdom Citizens shall be met.
Stay in His Word and you will always be in good standing.
