Have you ever felt like there’s more to your business than optimizing your process for profit? Then, if you are successful, you’re this faithful a servant who stewards his time and money to support other people’s visions.

Have you felt your purpose was deeper than business success metrics, branding, giving? That’s not ambition talking—it’s awakening.

Many Kingdom-minded believers sense it: a holy disruption pulling them out of their all-about-me comfort, out of church-as-usual, and into something more eternal, more powerful, more strategic (A Reformation of Nations). That’s why The Unseen Realm by Dr. Michael Heiser is so relevant and timely for this transition from religion to Kingdom. (7 Min Intro). It doesn’t just confirm your intuition—it gives it a biblical backbone.

Rediscovering the Supernatural Worldview

Heiser’s Unseen Realm opens with a revolutionary premise: we’ve domesticated the Bible. Modern Christianity has sidelined the supernatural worldview that the original authors lived, breathed, and died for. We’ve made the spiritual realm a symbolic metaphor, and in doing so, we’ve neutered our experience in it.

But when you read Scripture with spiritual eyes—eyes that see the Divine Council, the fallen sons in Genesis 6 and the cosmic war for nations—you realize ascension isn’t Sunday School theology. It’s a divine intelligence briefing for sons and daughters of God called to repopulate Father’s Council and reclaim the nations. When I read Heiser’s book I realized the priority Father placed on my sonship and my presence in the Council. That’s when I said yes Lord and great adventure began.

Key Concepts from The Unseen Realm

  1. The Divine Council:
    A heavenly assembly of the “sons of God” who participate with God in governing creation (Psalm 82, 1 Kings 22). This Council helps frame a relational model for God’s government, not a solitary sovereign but a Father leading a family.
  2. Cosmic Geography:
    Nations were disinherited by God at Babel (Deut 32:8-9 ESV) and placed under lesser elohim (fallen sons of Gen 6), who rebelled. Israel was chosen to be God’s inheritance, through whom He would reclaim the nations.

Deut 32:8 – When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind,
he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
9)  But the LORD’s portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage.

  1. Jesus’ Mission:
    Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection are part of God’s plan to reassert His rule and reclaim the nations, starting His Ecclesia (sons of God, Mt 16-16-19).
  2. The Role of Believers:
    Believers are not just passive recipients of salvation but are drawn into the cosmic conflict, called to participate in reclaiming creation under Jesus’ rule (Rom 8:19).
  3. The Spiritual Realm is Real:
    Angels, demons, principalities, and powers are not metaphors—they are active, and understanding their roles is essential for understanding Scripture, your purpose and the level of warfare that sons learn to navigate.

What This Means for Kingdom Business

Kingdom business is more than making money—it’s a tool for reformation. But Heiser’s research arms that belief with clarity and courage. Here’s how The Unseen Realm supports the three core pillars of Kingdom Business: Sonship, Ascension, and Reformation.

1. SONSHIP: You Weren’t Saved to Sit—You Were Chosen to Rule

“Those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.” – Romans 8:14

Heiser unpacks the concept of the Divine Council—a heavenly assembly where God invites His children to govern with Him. Psalm 82 shows us God rebuking unjust elohim for mismanaging the nations. Why? Because governance it’s a family business.

You weren’t just saved from sin—you were adopted into family and Purpose.

This changes everything:

  • Youridentity is not just “saved sinner” but son with a seat at Father’s divine Council.
  • Yourpurpose is not just personal happiness, but to bring Heaven to Earth (greater works!).

When you understand sonship like this, letting go of lesser callings becomes easy. You were born for something bigger. You were re-born to reign with your Father and set captives free.

2. ASCENSION: Access Isn’t Allegory—It’s Assignment

“Come boldly to the throne of grace…” – Hebrews 4:16

The Divine Council isn’t just Old Testament poetry. From Job to Revelation, the Bible is filled with courtroom scenes, council chambers, and heavenly deliberations. Jesus Himself said, “You will see angels ascending and descending…” (Jn 1:51).

Heiser reaffirms that access to Heaven’s strategy room is not mystical—it’s theological.

In Kingdom Business, that means:

  • You can be in Heaven’s courts to conduct the spiritual warfare, taking down accusations and their spiritual roots.
  • You can have conversations with Father, Jesus, and the 7 Spirits of God in the Council
  • You canco-labor with Father on Earth with angelic help, just like Jesus did.

That’s not charismatic hype—it’s Scripture rightly understood. When you know your seat is secure, you stop begging God for favor and start co-laboring to put His Kingdom first and build it on earth.

3. REFORMATION: From Boardroom to Battleground

“Ask of me, and I will give you the nations…” – Psalm 2:8

Here’s the wildest part: the nations didn’t “drift” away from God—they were disinherited at Babel (Deut. 32:8-9). That’s why spiritual warfare over nations is real, why the nations rage. The marketplace is the primary battleground where ideas, values, and destinies are redeemed from Heaven to Earth.

Heiser reminds us: reformation isn’t just personal—it’s global.

Your business is an instrument of reformation, a big part of what’s on Father’s heart for Nations:

  • You’re not just managing cash flow—you’re manifesting Kingdom.
  • You’re not just leading employees—you’re discipling sons in a business culture, Ecclesia.
  • You’re not just selling products—you’re fulfilling prophetic purpose.

You are literally speaking living words from those conversation in the Council into your industry. You are changing the atmosphere with every transaction that carries Heaven’s DNA.

Join the Ecclesia That Reigns with Jesus

Jesus didn’t die just to fill pews—He died to reclaim nations. He launched a divine insurgency through His ecclesia, the called-out ones who legislate from Heaven to Earth.

The Unseen Realm doesn’t give us new revelation. It restores ancient understanding—that we are sons, seated in heavenly places, sent to reform the Earth. That’s what Kingdom Business Coaching is all about.

Cutting Room Floor

We all go through an invitation from Father to experience sonship. It’s not automatic. We each make decisions in about these seven categories to consciously move from religious serfs who serve and steward to sons who own an inheritance from Father and have the Council conversations to get on the same page with the purpose in His heart.
