The Joshua Generation Series

Overview

The Kingdom of God: The Kingly Ministry (Volume 7) is a Christian discipleship and leadership manual developed within The Joshua Generation’s “Establishing the Kingdom” curriculum. This resource is crafted to equip believers to understand, embrace, and express their kingly identity—empowering them to represent God’s authority and values in every sphere of influence. The manual builds on concepts from earlier volumes, such as priestly ministry and the realities of the new creation, and offers vital training for living as change agents in the world.

Key Themes

1. The Believer’s Kingly Identity

Royal Priesthood: Every Christian is called not only to the priestly but also to the kingly aspect of their identity—entrusted with authority to influence, steward, and advance the purposes of God in the world3.

Scriptural Roots: The mandate draws from passages like 1 Peter 2:9 and Revelation 1:6, emphasizing the dual vocation of all believers to serve and reign.

2. The Nature of Kingly Ministry

Servant Leadership: True kingdom leadership is modeled after Christ, who exercised unassailable authority through profound humility and selfless service.

Walking in Authority: Believers are called to discern God’s direction, make Spirit-led decisions, and take bold faith-driven action within their family, community, profession, and society3.

Establishing God’s Order: The manual teaches that the kingly call involves actively bringing God’s justice, peace, and transformation into every segment of society—breaking cycles of passivity and demonstrating the reign of God through practical leadership3.

Insightful Decision-Making: Drawing inspiration from leaders like King Solomon (1 Kings 3:7-9), this volume encourages Christians to seek God’s guidance for clear, fair, and effective choices in leadership roles1.

3. Lessons from Joshua and Biblical Kings

Joshua’s Example: Joshua stands as a model of brave, obedient leadership—advancing God’s purposes through faithfulness and trust, rather than mere tradition7.

Authority and Influence: The manual highlights a generation who, like Joshua, commands influence and undertakes kingdom tasks with a sense of calling and conviction, impacting their generation and beyond6.

Corporate Calling: Emphasis is placed on a community movement—not just individual advancement. The kingly ministry is to be expressed by the body of believers together, promoting a shift from self-preservation to active, communal transformation6.
