I was thinking yesterday on the fact that many believers hold to the belief that Yeshua is already reigning as King, and whether Scripture truly supports this. Based on verses we find in both the Old and New Testament, should we understand His kingship as a present reality, or is it something that is yet to come?
The Bible clearly states that Yeshua is currently functioning as our High Priest:
Hebrews 4:14 – "Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession."
Hebrews 7:25 – "Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them."
Yet, when we turn to passages about His kingship, the timeline seems different:
Revelation 19:16 – "On His robe and on His thigh, He has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."
Revelation 20:4 – "And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them... and they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years."
If Yeshua is already reigning as King, why would Revelation speak of His kingship as something still to come? Was His kingship inaugurated at His resurrection, or is it something that will only begin at His second coming?
Could it be that our understanding of the futuristic nature of Revelation is incorrect and influences our interpretation of Scripture?
Many interpret Revelation as almost entirely about future events, yet some passages indicate a past or ongoing fulfillment. Could Yeshua already be reigning in a spiritual sense while awaiting His full reign on earth; are these mutually exclusive?
What do you think? Is Yeshua already reigning as King, or is His kingship yet to be established? How do we reconcile these verses?

Genesis 2: 11 — 12, “The name of the first stream is Pishon. It flows around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. That gold is good. Bdellium and onyx are also there.” A question I was asked was, “If God knew we would eventually love money more than Him, why would he have created it?” We know that not everyone who is wealthy abuses their wealth. the letters that make up the Hebrew word for gold could be defined as something that nourished the house or the family. The economy that our Creator designed for us was not intended to be a measure of success but a tool that we could use to nourish or to provide for ourselves and others.

Thought for Today: Sunday February 09
Never look back and see what has been done, always look ahead and see what remains to be done. Because our Elohiym Who created the heaven and the earth, Who also knows the number of hairs on your head… He pays attention to every big and every small thing. And what matter to you, matters to Him.
End time events from the Bible are unfolding. I'm sharing videos about the little horn and how Trump fits in on http://MessianicWorld.com

Is he presently reigning in the heavenly Temple? Is he presently reigning in an earthly Temple? Yes, and yet to come.
