Kings
Devotions:
“And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 1:6 KJV
“For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)”
Romans 5:17 KJV
When we were born again God made us into kings to rule and reign over our circumstances and all the work of the enemy. We need to have the understanding that we are the dominate forces on the earth and not the servants of satan.
“And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:” Ephesians 2:6 KJV
We are to operate from the place of victory not from the inferior place of being in need and having to beg for our protection and provision. We have the victory in Chirst Jesus because we are in Him. We are kings and priest because we are in Him and have partaken of His nature. We do not go out to win the victory over satan but to enforce the win that Jesus has already accomplished. Satan will just try to convince us that we are in a place of weakness and shame. When we see our sins as totally forgiven and forgotten and our worthiness is totally by the blood of Jesus. We never judge ourselves by ourselves but by looking at Jesus, He is our perfection, He is our purity, He is our righteousness!
Instead of cowering at the threats of the muslims or others or ringing our hands at what the governments do we are to take our place of dominance in the spirit realm in our prayers and declarations. We recognize that satan is the sourse of all the bad and evil that happens so we speak and take authority over him, our defeated foe and we pray to God for His intervention where need be. If we do not exercise our authority then he will do whatever he wants as he did in Germany in the 1930's and 1940's through Hitler.
You do not have the influence over everyone and over all situations so we need to know the realm of our authority. We do not have the authority over another person but we would have authority over the demons that are inspiring and driving that person when he tries to come against us.
