In God's mind, when He looks at you, He sees a king. That's what He's made you. The Bible says He has made us kings and priests. He's not planning on doing it, He's already done it. You've been ordained by God to reign and rule in the realm of life. He has made you superior to the devil and impregnable to the adversities of life. Today, not only does God expect you to see yourself as a king, but also He expects you to live as one for that's who you are.
The reason some Christians are not living as kings in life is their ignorance of the Scriptures. Many don't know who they are, and as a result, they live below their call. If you're born again, you're a king, so you must live as one. Kings don't beg; they make decrees. That's their nature. They don't make entreaties like commoners; they exercise authority. That's how God expects you to live. He always wants you to exercise authority and dominion over the devil and the negative forces of life.
Even in your prayer life, don't beg. God hasn't called you into servitude or a beggarly life. He's made you a king. So, when you pray, minister to Him as a priest, and make decrees as a king. The Bible says where the word of a king is, there is power (Ecclesiastes 8:4). Your words are backed with power; they contain inherent dynamic ability to change any negative situation and put the devil to flight.
Therefore, always be bold to speak in line with God's Word. Be bold to make decrees, because as a king, whatever you decree shall be established to you.
Confession
I thank you dear heavenly Father for making me a king and teaching me to live as one. I know that through the power of your Spirit that's at work in me, I'll reign and exercise dominion over the devil and all negative circumstances of life, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
