The Kingdom of Heaven is Near… From the beginning, John the Baptist announced: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near. When Jesus came, John declared, Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. And the Spirit descended on Him like a dove. Though Jesus was conceived by the Spirit, this was the first time God’s Spirit came to dwell in a man. Jesus became the living embassy of Heaven on earth.

He declared: The time is fulfilled, the kingdom of God has come near. And He proved it — healing the sick, casting out demons, calming storms, multiplying loaves, raising the dead. He said: If I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom has come upon you. Even if you do not believe My words, believe the works.

Now, God has raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms. His Spirit dwells in our hearts, making us embassies of Heaven — sovereign soil of the King. Embassies provide sanctuary, provision, and protection. But more: through His Spirit, we release forgiveness, healing, and miraculous provision. Jesus promised: Whoever believes in Me will do the works I do — and greater.

Where His embassies stand, the Kingdom stands near.
