It is time for the children of the kingdom to take their place as sons and daughters of God.
“The kingdom of heaven suffers violence” (Matt. 11:12 b, NKJV). What does this mean? It means that the kingdom of God, the things of Christ, the gospel all suffer violence. More than ever before, the enemy would see to it that he silence you. But the Scriptures say that “the violent take it by force” (Matt. 11:12c).

God is looking for those who have a heavenly holy authority to take what is rightfully theirs. You are not a whimpering pup; you are a child of God, and you have the boldness to access the presence of God. Let God arise and let His enemies be scattered (see Ps. 68:1).
The Father brings you to Himself. It is time.

“The kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take by force” (Matt. 11:12b). This is not an earthly violence from the world; it is a holy, spiritual captivity of darkness by force, and it is time for you to know your place and who you are.
You are not of this world. You are no longer under the elementary principles of this world. You are a child of God. A kingdom, an authority has been given to us that is part of our inheritance as sons and daughters. It’s time for us to take our place.
However, as long as you are ignorant of what is rightfully yours, the enemy will seek to use you as a pawn, a puppet, but you are not that. You must take what is rightfully yours. You have kingdom authority. You have kingdom reign. We were meant to reign and rule with Christ. That will be fully realized in the coming kingdom, in the millennial reign, but there is even a reality of that now.

Chris is also a revivalist with a heart for the local church and serves as the lead overseer at House of Glory in Fort Smith, Arkansas. House of Glory is a Spirit-filled, fivefold apostolic revival hub that exists to cultivate the presence of God and the power of the gospel regionally and internationally. God is looking for those who will give Him a place to rest and allow His people to interact with His presence, power and glory. Second Corinthians 3:18 says, “But we all, seeing the glory of the Lord with unveiled faces, as in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory by the Spirit of the Lord.” It is for His glory that we proclaim His name. Chris and his wife, Zuly, reside in the Fort Smith area with their three children.
