Proverbs 23(KJV) verse 4 "Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom." verse 5"Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven." Matthew 6(KJV) verse 24 "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate one, and love other; or else he will hold to one, and despise other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." Matthew 6(KJV) verse 33 " But seek ye first kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." 1 Timothy 6(KJV) verse 17 "Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;" verse18 "That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;" verse 19 "Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life."

The world system presents several obstacles which are designed to hinder every Christian from having and spending kingdom wealth but we overcome this wicked system through our faith in Lord as our provider.

1 John 5(KJV) verse 4 "For whatsoever is born of God overcometh world: and this is victory that overcometh world, even our faith."

In this Christian race,for anyone who is feeling... ...weak,the LORD is our strength(Psalm 18:2) ...sick and injured,the LORD is our healer(Exodus 15:26) ...confused and troubled,the LORD is our peace(Judges 6:24) ...lonely,the Lord is ever with us(Matt 28:20) ...under attack,the Lord is our defence(Psalm 18:2) ...lost,the Lord is our guide(Psalm 48:14) ...guilty,the Lord forgives and cleanses us(1 John 1:9)

Hebrews 12(KJV) verse 1 "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience race that is set before us," verse 2 "Looking unto Jesus author and finisher of our faith; who for joy that was set before him endured cross, despising shame, and is set down at right hand of throne of God."

verse 6 "That which is born of flesh is flesh; and that which is born of Spirit is spirit."

verse 7 "Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."

verse 8 "The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of Spirit."

These are those whose hearts have been cleansed by blood of Lamb (Rev.1:5).It is these hearts in which reigns Lord Jesus Christ.Between Lord and these peculair people is a covenant relationship like that between a sovereign king and vassal kings.This covenant ensures and demands that 'kings' are faithful to King just as He is faithful to them:

Jeremiah 31(KJV)

verse 31 "Behold, days come, saith LORD, that I will make a new covenant with house of Israel, and with house of Judah:" verse 32 "Not according to covenant that I made with their fathers in day that I took them by hand to bring them out of land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith LORD:"

verse 33 "But this shall be covenant that I will make with house of Israel; After those days, saith LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people."

verse 34 "And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know LORD: for they shall all know me, from least of them unto greatest of them, saith LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more."

Faithfulness is expected by King in these areas:-

* Celebrating King(Psalm 93-100)-worship; * Proclaiming King(Isa.52:7)-evangelism;& * Demonstrating King (Rom.5:17, Matt.5-7)-kingdom life.

These kings have authority of King to rule on earth. It is by wisdom of God that they rule (Prov.8:15).And Jesus Christ is wisdom of God (1 Cor.1:24).The Lord is even greater than Solomon (Luke 11:31).It is His authority (Matt 28:18, Mark 16:17-18, & Luke 10:19) that they exercise on His behalf in each of territories where He has placed each of them. Each king is not in unhealthful competition with any other king (2 Cor.10:12) but complements any other king as members of body of Christ (1 Cor.12:12).

Both kingship and priesthood of saints make up their calling in Christ Jesus (Rev.1:6, 5:10).
