1. September 4 We as ambassadors of Christ have been given a kingdom that can not be shaken as we minister to all the nations of the world that are being shaken.

See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. For if those did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less will we escape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven. And His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, "YET ONCE MORE I WILL SHAKE NOT ONLY THE EARTH, BUT ALSO THE HEAVEN." This expression, "Yet once more," denotes the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire. - Hebrews 12:25-29 NASU

2. September 5 We as ambassadors of Christ have been given eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart to believe so that we may know the mystery of the Kingdom of God.

As soon as He was alone, His followers, along with the twelve, began asking Him about the parables. And He was saying to them, "To you has been given the mystery of the kingdom of God, but those who are outside get everything in parables, so that WHILE SEEING, THEY MAY SEE AND NOT PERCEIVE, AND WHILE HEARING, THEY MAY HEAR AND NOT UNDERSTAND, OTHERWISE THEY MIGHT RETURN AND BE FORGIVEN." - Mark 4:10-12 NASU

3. September 6 We as Christians are to make disciples out of all nations. Not overthrow governments but disciple them in the way, life and truth of Jesus our Lord.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen. - Matthew 28:19-20 NKJV

4. September 7 We as Christins are to fully immerse the nations in the full counsel of the Kingdom of God as a type of Baptism.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen. - Matthew 28:19-20 NKJV

5. September 8 King Jesus has given His ambassadors all authority and power of the Kingdom of God to cast out demons, heal the sick and proclaim the Kingdom of God has come to heal the nations. King Jesus has not given us power and authority over the Caeser’s of the world. We are in a time of free will submission not force.

And He called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all the demons and to heal diseases. And He sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to perform healing. And He said to them, "Take nothing for your journey, neither a staff, nor a bag, nor bread, nor money; and do not even have two tunics apiece.  "Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that city. "And as for those who do not receive you, as you go out from that city, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them." Departing, they began going throughout the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere. - Luke 9:1-6 NASU

6. September 11 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach the gospel of the Kingdom as a testimony that that all nations have been given time to repent and submit the Lordship of Jesus. Then the end will come.

"This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come. - Matthew 24:14 NASU

7. September 12 Even though the Kingdom of God is in this world it is not of this world, nor does it fight the same natural ways of this world.

Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm." - John 18:36-37 NASU

8. September 13 We as ambassadors of Christ are sent out to the nations not with swords of war but with the good news about the Kingdom of God and of Jesus.

But when they believed Philip preaching the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were being baptized, men and women alike. - Acts 8:12 NASU

9. September 14 The Good News that our preaching doesn’t consist of mere words but is confirmed with the power of the Cross to save.

But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I shall find out, not the words of those who are arrogant but their power. For the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power. - 1 Corinthians 4:19-20 NASU

10. September 15 We as ambassadors of Christ need not worry how we are going to convince people of the truth. A little leaven will go a long way.

And again He said, "To what shall I compare the kingdom of God? "It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three pecks of flour until it was all leavened." - Luke 13:20-21 NASU

11. September 18 We as ambassadors of Christ are given keys to lock and unlock doors so that people may escape hell and enter the Kingdom of God.

"I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven." - Matthew 16:18-19 NASU

12. September 19 We as ambassadors of Christ are to speak of the things concerning the Kingdom of God and provide convincing proofs.

The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach, until the day when He was taken up to heaven, after He had by the Holy Spirit given orders to the apostles whom He had chosen. To these He also presented Himself alive after His suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God. - Acts 1:1-3 NASU

13. September 20 We as ambassadors of Christ are to testify about the Kingdom of God and persuade all people of all cultures, tongues and nations concerning Jesus.

When they had set a day for Paul, they came to him at his lodging in large numbers; and he was explaining to them by solemnly testifying about the kingdom of God and trying to persuade them concerning Jesus, from both the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening. - Acts 28:23 NASU

14. September 21 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach the signs that the Kingdom of God is near and the time to be part of this new government is drawing to a close.

Then He told them a parable: "Behold the fig tree and all the trees; as soon as they put forth leaves, you see it and know for yourselves that summer is now near. "So you also, when you see these things happening, recognize that the kingdom of God is near. - Luke 21:29-31 NASU

15. September 22 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach the Kingdom of God is at hand and to quickly repent and believe the gospel.

Now after John had been taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel." - Mark 1:14-15 NASU

16. September 25 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach a person must be born again to enter the Kingdom of God.

Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. "Do not be amazed that I said to you, 'You must be born again.' "The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit." - John 3:5-8 NASU

17. September 26 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach a rescue mission of being transferred from a dying and dark world to the Kingdom of God where there is redemption and forgiveness of sin.

For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. - Colossians 1:13-14 NASU

18. September 27 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach that the Kingdom of God is not a nation of laws to abide and be considered a good citizen. The Kingdom of God is a nation of people who love righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit that keep one another from taking advantage of each other.

I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but to him who thinks anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. For if because of food your brother is hurt, you are no longer walking according to love. Do not destroy with your food him for whom Christ died. Therefore do not let what is for you a good thing be spoken of as evil; for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. - Romans 14:14-17 NASU

19. September 28 We as ambassadors of Christ are to preach the Kingdom as a hidden treasure to be found and those who find it willing sell out this life with joy to be part of the new Kingdom to come.

The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. - Matthew 13:44 NASU

20. September 29 We as ambassadors of Christ are not to pick and choose who we think might be a good citizen for the Kingdom. We need to cast a net and let God divide between the good and the bad.

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea, and gathering fish of every kind; and when it was filled, they drew it up on the beach; and they sat down and gathered the good fish into containers, but the bad they threw away. "So it will be at the end of the age; the angels will come forth and take out the wicked from among the righteous, and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. - Matthew 13:47-50 NASU
