YOU HAVE BEEN MADE TO REIGN

“And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.”

Revelation 5:10 (KJV)

Child of God, if there is ever a time in human history that we need to move beyond mere knowledge and fully understand and hinge our lives on God’s unending mercies, that time is now. You will agree with me that everywhere you turn today, the hearts of men are failing. Just as the Bible prophesied, pestilences, wars and rumours of war are significantly louder. We are constantly inundated with such news across different media platforms but God has not left His church without a witness.

It is not God’s will for you to be cowered with fear for we have been made kings and priests unto our God and we shall reign on the earth. Therefore, irrespective of the current shakings and happenings around the globe, God has both called and made you to reign above them; that is God’s plan for you.

However, if you will indeed fulfill God’s purpose and reign as Kings and Priests on earth, then more than ever before, it is important for you to truly understand the God of mercy and the mercy of God. This refers to His Person and His Ways.  You can only access the benefits of God’s grace when you understand and fully embrace His mercies. This means you can only access all that Christ made available to you through His death, burial and resurrection. Then, you understand that His sacrifice on the Cross had nothing to do with you, but everything to do with Him and His compassionate love for you. This is the reason we are bold as believers to make demands on His name. It is because our righteousness is of Him, not because of what you did or didn’t do, but because of what Jesus did.

In Christ, the grace of God will make a way for you. You will not labor for trouble. You will not be stranded. God will bless you and cause you to have sufficiency in all things. I will hear your testimony.
