According to ‘creatio ex nihilo’, there was no physical thing in existence before the expanse of space emerged was created Therefore one could conclude that the kingdom of God existed prior to the beginning of the heaven and the earth being created.
The term heaven in Genesis 1:1 refers to physical matter which emerged into existence while the term earth refers unto the physical body that resulted from its emergence. But if you don't believe me when I tell you about earthly things, then why should you believe me when I tell you about heavenly things.
So when told thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, the kingdom of heaven is not paradise on earth, but amongst the many mansions that are in the expanse of the space above.

But a brief narrative is that Genesis 1:1 the first heaven and earth, the second heaven and earth can be seen after the frozen waters that covered the earth in Genesis 1:2 began melting when God saw the light on being called the first day. As the radiant heat began melting the waters upon the earth the firmament was formed that covered the earth like a garment That firmament was called heaven.
The dry ground that appears as the water upon the earth formed the firmament was called the earth.

The kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven are the same thing only different. The kingdom of heaven is the place God dwells; the kingdom of God is His person. The Holy of Holies which reveals both in type and shadow.
When Jesus was revealed He said... the kingdom of God is at hand.... Or that which has been concealed in heaven is revealed on earth. They are interchangeable; only one is concealed in heaven the other revealed first in Christ Jesus and by the Holy Breath in His people!
This is how God made Himself known to a people who could not see Him; thus the kingdom of heaven! When He finally arrived, He Himself proclaimed, the kingdom of God is at hand! And on and on.....
