Kingdom Laws

When you enter any foreign country, there are certain laws you must adhere to. These laws were designed for you to fully enjoy being in that country. The same is true with the Kingdom of God. There are certain laws, in the Kingdom of God, for you to be familiar with in order for you to fully enjoy the Kingdom.

Matthew 6:33
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

The first law is the Law of Priority

Priority means to be first or having precedence over another. This states that the first order in the Kingdom is to develop a relationship with the King of the Kingdom. As a citizen in the Kingdom, your sole responsibility is to focus, please and obey the King. The Kingdom is set up by you focusing and obeying whatever the King desires and the King will take care all other concerns.

1. A King who reigns
2. Domain-territory of which the King rule over
3. Citizen who lives in the Kingdom and who is totally submitted to the King
4. Laws that govern the Kingdom. Each law has benefits if they are obeyed and consequences if they are disobeyed.
