“It’s Time for Kingdom Manifestation”



To my Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,


Praise the Lord, for He is good and His mercy endures forever! Our God is a good God and he has wonderful plans in mind for us His children. He wants us to be blessed in all that we say and do. Blessed in our homes, blessed at our workplaces, blessed in our relationships, blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed! He has got you and me on His mind, and He desires us to come to a deeper understanding of who He is in us, and who we are in Him.


The cry has gone out across throughout the realm of the spirit.


IT’S TIME FOR DEMONSTRATION OF THE KINGDOM!


The coming of our Lord and Christ is dependant on only one thing according to Matthew 24 vs 14; the proclamation of the gospel of the Kingdom unto the entire world for a witness! This word witness means “evidence of “or “as a testimony of”, so when we put that together with the preaching of the good news of the Kingdom of God we see that the Good News of Gods’ Kingdom coming to earth will be demonstrated with evidence to that fact. When we His children, the Royal Priesthood, Ambassadors for the King of Kings start demonstrating how the Kingdom of God is good news to those who are in darkness, we prepare the way for the coming of the Lord.

Many believe that the return of Jesus is not far off. But for this to be a reality, the kingdom of God MUST be preached with the demonstration of Power.


“For the Kingdom of God is not in word, but in POWER” -1 Corinthians 4 vs 11


The apostle Paul understood this power more than any other believer at the time. He demonstrated this wonderful, miracle working power everywhere he went. The demonized were delivered, the sick healed, the blind were able to see and the ways of the Kingdom were preached and taught to all the early church as the Spirit gave revelation. I tell you the truth, eye has not seen nor ear heard the good things that God has laid up for those who love Him and are called according to His purposes, but Praise God for the Holy Spirit and His marvelous word which reveal these mysteries of the Kingdom unto us. God has not hidden these wonderful truths from us, but has laid them up for us.

I tell you the truth, God has a higher way of living for His children and sadly many Christians don’t know the difference between the ways of the Kingdom and the ways of the World. Jesus himself said that the children of this world are wiser than the children of light, for they know how to work their system. The time has come and is now upon us for the ways of the Kingdom to become commonplace in the lives of the believers. We must as a vital necessity transfer our ways out of that of the world, over into the ways of the Kingdom of God. We must start to look to the Word of God for our answers, our wisdom, our guidance and our lifestyle and to depend wholly on the Father for our peace, our healing and our provision. We must take time to build an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit, learning to hear and understand His voice and His leadings. We must become quick to obey and quick to believe.


Luke 14 vs 33 says very plainly what it means to become a disciple of Jesus;


“So then, every one of you who does not forsake all that he has, he cannot be My disciple.”


Does he mean for us to give away everything that we have? Not unless He tells you directly I think not. Jesus here was not just talking about physical assets, but more so the knowledge and understanding of the ways of this world. If we are to live a life of health and prosperity as God intended it from the beginning in pure unbroken fellowship with the Father, then we must let go of the wisdom that man has taught us. I dare say we even need to throw away some of the things those who have gone before us have taught. If it does not line up with the Word of God, then we must see it as being of human origin and of no spiritual blessing what so-ever. Carnal, earthy things are directly opposite to the things of the Spirit. Where man says it can’t be done, God says that nothing is impossible. Where the doctors pronounce death through sickness and disease, God has already healed the whole earth, forgiven the whole earth and made a way in which the whole earth can step back into the blessing that Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Jesus walked in.


When we see the Kingdom of God made manifest through our own lives, we will see the blind eyes opened, the deaf ears hearing, the maimed to be made whole, those who are poor to be made rich, those who are weak made strong and those who live in fear and without hope to experience the Love of the Father and be free from fear and living a life of hope. Is this possible? Can the poor become rich, the maimed whole, and so on? What does the Word of God say about it?


Let’s take a look:--

  • The Children of Israel (while under a covenant that was not as glorious as ours) walked out of slavery in a day not only healed and in full health (for there were none feeble among them) but also rich (taking spoil of the Egyptians of all their wealth).
  • King Jehoshaphat came up against the armies of foreign Kings and they were delivered into their hands without a single child of God having to fight, and they took three days to gather the fine jewelry and precious things that the armies where carrying with them. (estimated at over a billion dollars worth)
  • When Jesus came preaching the good news of the Kingdom, he opened the eyes of the blind, opened the ears of the deaf, made the maimed whole again, made the lame to walk again, healed all those oppressed of the devil and even brought a financial multiplication to a group of fishermen like they never experienced before or after.

  • By His wounds you have been healed: Yet for our sake He became poor, so that we might be rich. For all who believe on His name shall be saved.


Have we truly laid hold of all that God has blessed us with? Have we received that which Jesus has already purchased on the cross for us? Are you and I walking in a life that is free from sin, free from all forms of sickness and disease and are we living a life without lack? If we are not then we need to start to find these promises in the Word and start believing them for ourselves. God has a higher life that He wants us to live in. It has already been purchased through the wok of the cross and is available for you and I if we only believe and if we will dare to receive it.


I encourage you to start dreaming again. Take the limitations off your dreams and allow the limitless God to expand your capacity to believe. Nothing is impossible to God. His Kingdom ways are available to all His children. We must of a necessity seek first (make it the highest priority in our lives) His Kingdom and His righteousness, for when we do, all the desires and dreams that God has placed in our hearts will come to pass right before our very eyes.

Now may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ rest heavily upon you. May favor and blessings walk hand in hand with you as your constant companion and may you experience revival and reformation in your lives like never before.


Your Brother in Christ,

John Olsen.
