Where was the Kingdom Before?

Now in those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying,“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”  Matthew 3:1-2  

From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”  Matthew 4:17

Both John the Baptist and Jesus referred to the Kingdom as approaching or drawing near.

Yet, David stated all the way back in the Psalms that “The Lord has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.”  And Daniel says, “How great are his signs, how mighty his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion endures from generation to generation.” Daniel 4:3

So, before the Kingdom was drawing near, where was it?
