ADVANCING GOD'S KINGDOM
DEFINING THE CORE VALUE
The Church, Ekklesia, is the governing body of Christ on the earth. The term “Ekklesia” is a Greek word meaning those who have been called out, appointed, and who make legislation. Jesus gave the Church the commission to demonstrate the love and power of the Kingdom of God, transforming people and nations with the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven. The Church will successfully carry out this mission, and the nations will experience transformation!
Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; Matthew 16:18-19; Acts 1:8; Psalm 2:8; Revelation 11:15; Isaiah 60:1–5; Acts 2; Ephesians 5:29–30
The Church is also called the bride of Christ, and she is being purified to be presented pure, spotless and radiant. As the bride, we co-labor with Jesus, the Bridegroom, in transforming the world.
Ephesians 5:25–27; Matthew 28:16–20; 1 Corinthians 3:9–11; 2 Corinthians 6:1
Jesus Christ has given to the Church apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers to build up the Body of Christ, equipping the saints for the work of ministry, helping the Church to grow into maturity.
Ephesians 4:11-12
As the Church, we believe and live the prayer, “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Therefore, we partner with Jesus, our King, in natural and supernatural ways to establish mercy, justice, and righteousness until He comes.
Matthew 6:9–10, 10:7–8; Isaiah 9:7, 33:5–6; Micah 6:8; Matthew 10:42, 25:40; John 14:12; James 1:27; Matthew 12:22–29
As Believers, we are all in full-time ministry as God advances His Kingdom in every area of society. Our work and efforts both inside and outside the church are sacred and valuable acts of worship to God.
1 Peter 2:9; Romans 12:1; Matthew 5:13–16; Colossians 3:23–24; Daniel 6:3; Proverbs 22:29; Ephesians 6:5–9; Matthew 25:31–46
The Church is called to overcome in all circumstances: in times of suffering and persecution, but also in times of prosperity and great influence.
John 16:33; Revelation 3:5,21; Philippians 4:11–13; Isaiah 41:10; 1 John 4:4, 5:4; Romans 8:37–39; 1 Chronicles 28:6–10; 1 Kings 5:3–5; Acts 4:13–37
We owe the world an opportunity to experience the power of God and an invitation to salvation because Jesus sent us into the world, just as the Father sent Him, with the power of the Holy Spirit.
John 20:21–23; 1 Corinthians 2:4–5; John 17:18; 1 Thessalonians 1:5; Matthew 28:18–19, 5:14–16; Luke 10:1–9
Jesus promised signs would follow believers and they would do even greater works than He did.
John 14:12–14; Acts 2:17–18; Luke 9:1–2; Mark 16:15–18; Acts 5:12–16
We believe all can be healed because Jesus demonstrated the Father’s will in healing all the sick and demonized He encountered.
Matthew 4:23, 12:15, 14:14, 24–33; Luke 9:11; Acts 10:38; Psalm 103:3–4; Acts 3:1–10; James 2:14–18; Mark 10:46–52; Matthew 9:27–38
Nothing is impossible with God. Therefore, no person or situation is beyond His ability to bring complete restoration.
Matthew 17:20; Mark 10:25–27; John 15:7; 1 Corinthians 6:9–11; Psalm 103:1–7; Luke 1:34–37
In Christ we are righteous, holy, and set apart. The cross of Jesus does not simply make us “good people”; it creates a new kind of people who walk in His power and are naturally supernatural.
2 Corinthians 5:17; 1 Peter 2:9–12; 2 Peter 1:3–4; Mark 16:17–18
Because Jesus has already won victory over darkness through His death and resurrection, we reinforce the finished work of the cross in the ways we pray, minister and live our lives. We operate from victory, not striving for victory.
Ephesians 1:18–23, 2:4–6; 1 John 4:4; Matthew 11:11; Isaiah 54:17; 1 John 5:4–5
Although we will experience resistance and conflict as the Kingdom advances, we are not looking to escape the world, but we live in hopeful expectation to see Christ’s victory manifested in individuals and nations.
John 15:19–21, 16:33; Colossians 1:13–14; 2 Corinthians 4:8–11, 12:10; John 17:15–18
We work to leave a legacy and an inheritance for future generations, just as previous generations have done for us. While anticipating Christ’s glorious return, we simply do not know when He will come, which should inspire us to have a long-term earthly vision.
Proverbs 13:22; Acts 2:39; 2 Timothy 2:1–2; Titus 2:11–14; James 5:7–8; Isaiah 9:6–7; Matthew 25:1–29; Hebrews 11:4–30
DO NOT MISUNDERSTAND
The church, both local and global, is in process and may not seem glorious yet, but the Lord has promised she will be, so we love and serve the church into becoming the glorious bride she was created to be.
Ephesians 5:25–27, 4:11–16; Revelation 19:7–9; Galatians 6:1–2, 10
We are called to be the light of the world, not the light of the church, so we do not isolate ourselves from the world, but actively influence the world.
Matthew 5:14–16; Mark 2:16–17; Isaiah 60:1–3; Jonah 4:10; Genesis 22:17–18; Matthew 28:19–20
Miracles did not stop with Jesus and the apostles. The Holy Spirit gives every believer the supernatural power to witness and release miracles, signs, and wonders.
John 14:12; Acts 1:8, 2:16–18; 1 Corinthians 12:7–11, 2:4–5, 4:20; Matthew 10:8; 1 John 4:17
Miracles are an expression of the love and power of God, not an indication that we are more important in the Kingdom.
1 Corinthians 13:1–3; Matthew 7:21–23
We do not pursue a relationship with God just so that we can perform signs and wonders.
Luke 10:17–20; Matthew 7:21–23
We do not have to strive to operate in signs and wonders. We receive grace through faith and become a conduit for God’s power to flow through us.
Galatians 3:2–5; 1 Corinthians 15:10; Ephesians 3:7–9
As we step out in faith, the risks we take when ministering may not always result in the expected outcome. Regardless, we continue to release faith, knowing our obedience to the Lord’s leading builds the Kingdom. Motivated by love, we do not give way to the fear of failure. Whenever we release faith, it counts, whether we see the results in our lifetime or in the generations to follow.
Acts 16:16–24; Matthew 14:22–33; Romans 8:28
The enemy, both territorially and through people, will try to resist the Kingdom from being established. We must be prepared to experience resistance, rejection, and persecution as we follow Christ.
Acts 4:3–22, 5:12–42; Revelation 12:10–11; 2 Corinthians 11:24–25; Matthew 5:10–12; 2 Corinthians 4:7–12; 2 Timothy 3:12
We cannot change the world by human strength and ability alone, but only with the Spirit of God.
Zechariah 4:6; 2 Corinthians 3:4–6; Jeremiah 17:5–6; 1 Peter 4:10–11
The Kingdom is always expanding into new areas of influence in the world. We do not have to be at the highest point of influence in society to bring Kingdom changes.
Luke 13:18–21; Matthew 20:25–27; Acts 4:13; Genesis 41:1–41; Daniel 7:13–14
We do not need to become like the world in order to powerfully influence it.
1 John 2:15–17; John 17:13–19, 15:19; Philippians 2:14–15; Mark 2:15–17; Matthew 11:16–19
A lifestyle of servanthood is often the means by which we gain greater favor and influence in society.
Matthew 20:25–27; Philippians 2:5–18; Luke 2:51–52; 1 Samuel 2:26; Daniel 2:1–49
Even though we live with hope, we do not deny the existence of difficult or painful circumstances.
John 16:33; 2 Corinthians 4:7–11, 16–18; 1 Corinthians 4:11–13; Philippians 4:11–14
Some aspects of the Kingdom that we are pursuing may not be witnessed in our lifetime, but rather in the lives of our children’s children. We live to make the world better for future generations.
Hebrews 11:13; Philippians 3:13–14; 1 Corinthians 9:24; Proverbs 13:22; Deuteronomy 7:9
While it is God's desire, and ours as well, that everyone will be reconciled to Him, sadly, not all will respond to the invitation to come home to the Father.
Matthew 22:1–14, 13:24–30; 1 Timothy 2:3–5; 2 Peter 3:9; Matthew 25:31–46
We are not giving up on the world and just waiting to go to Heaven.
John 3:16–17; 2 Peter 3:9; Matthew 5:13–16, 43–45
PERSONAL APPLICATION
We seek to disciple individuals, families, cities, and nations because the Kingdom of this world has become and is becoming the Kingdom of our God.
Matthew 28:18–20; Revelation 11:15; Psalm 2:8–12; Acts 14:21–28; Isaiah 61:1–11; Luke 4:18–21
Love should be our primary motivation when we take risks to release the power of God’s Kingdom into the lives of others. We walk as sons and daughters of God, revealing our Father’s goodness.
1 Corinthians 16:14, 13:1– 3; John 13:34–35; Matthew 20:26–28
We have been given responsibility and supernatural power to bring about transformation; therefore, we refuse to have a mindset that empowers the devil and disempowers the church.
Matthew 13:31–33; Isaiah 61:1–11; Luke 4:18–21; Matthew 10:8, 16:18–19; John 20:22–23; 1 John 4:4; Colossians 2:15
One of the ways we transform the world is by agreeing with and declaring the good news of the Kingdom.
Proverbs 11:11; 2 Corinthians 4:13; Matthew 10:7–8; Proverbs 18:21; James 3:2–5; Matthew 16:18–19, 18:18–20, 21:21–22
The Father wants us to live in the fullness of the Kingdom, which means that we are to be persistent in prayer, waiting in faith for the Kingdom to break into every situation.
John 10:10; Luke 18:1–8, 11:1–13, 12:31–32; Acts 1:4, 2:1–4, 4:23–31
We celebrate every victory, great and small, believing that every testimony of what Jesus has done creates faith and releases hope that He will do it again. In this way, a testimony is a prophecy of what Jesus is willing and able to do right now.
Revelation 19:10; Romans 10:15–17; Hebrews 13:7– 8; Acts 10:34–48; Psalm 44:1– 5; Mark 5:18–21; Psalm 119:111; Deuteronomy 6:17–24, 7:17–19; Revelation 12:10–11

Matthew 5:43–45; Luke 6:27–28; Proverbs 25:21; Acts 16:22–34
We put our trust in God, not in the prosperity and power of governments.
Philippians 3:20; Jeremiah 17:5–8; Hebrews 12:28–29; Matthew 6:24–26; Psalm 20:6–7; Proverbs 23:1–3
Prophetic words concerning leadership and government should be consistent with God’s mission and should flow from a heart of love, hope and empathy, rather than wrath and judgment.
1 Corinthians 14:3; Romans 14:19; Luke 9:53–56; Romans 5:20; John 12:46–50, 3:16–17; 1 Timothy 2:4
As Believers, we are to live a naturally supernatural lifestyle, bringing transformation to every area of influence. Our new normal is to live a Spirit-led life and assist in establishing God’s Kingdom on earth.
