SCRIPTURE UNDERSTANDING: PSALMS 9:7-12. But Yahuah abides forever, He is preparing His throne for judgement. And He judges the world in integrity, He judges the peoples in straightness. And Yahuah is a refuge for the crushed one, A refuge in times of distress. And those who know Your name trust in You, for You have not forsaken those who seek You, Yahuah. He does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

1 TIM 6:16. The blessed and only Ruler, the Sovereign of sovereigns and Master of masters, who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or is able to see, to whom be respect and everlasting might, Amn.

ROM 6:12. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires.

2TIM 2:12. If we endure, we shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also shall deny us.

Rom 5:17. For if by the trespass of the one, death did reign through the one, much more those who receive the overflowing favour and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life through the One, Yahusha Messiah.

It is pretty easy to understand here, that the Hebrew word "REIGN" speaks of an earthly kingdom or reign, or dominion over a certain area. The scriptures above reveal to us that Yahusha is the Master of the creation/universe and that His "REIGN" is eternal. Yahusha wants us to realise that He revealed Himself to Moses on the mount and in the cloud/fire of the wilderness, through progression He moved to the arc of the covenant, then to the Tabernacle of David, then to the temple of Solomon. From the temple of Solomon He departed because of their sin/disobedience, He vowed never to return to be with the Jews again, and destroyed the temple of Jerusalem.

400 years passed til the Messiah Yahusha's presence re-appeared on this earth, He showed us his new dwelling place in our bodies through the portal of our circumcised hearts and declared I will not dwell in temples men build, but your body is now the temple from where I will Reign. This world has putrified itself basking in sin before my face, and must be cleansed with fire.

Yahusha talks to us about His REIGN in the form of parables, In Matt 25 He said, Then the REIGN of the shamayim shall be compared to ten maidens who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Going through this parable we find that half those who say they believe are lying. What a shock and disappointment, His message is obviously giving us a warning.

Yahusha gave Behaviour Revolution The 3 Rules which opens our minds to see behaviour that is apart from this instruction. Did the virgins tell the unwise off for being fake, no, they just waited for the moment that their oil would run out. The virgins knew it was impossible to buy the precious dwelling of the oil of the spirit and left with the master for His eternal REIGN.

Yahusha wants His bride to make up her mind about his instructions for living Turah and do it, rejecting the temptations of a worldly life. This is the true wisdom.
