I was listening to a song by Donald Lawrence few months back, and the message of that song hit me; "There is a King in you".
Let Me share some of the lyrics;
"You come from royalty,
An aristocratic dynasty,
The goal of the enemy,
Is that you don't know who you are..."
Well, I grew up with the knowledge of the fact that the devil is the founder of lies, and the father of liars, and even as time went on, I confirmed it with the help of the Holyspirit, that truly, He always tries His best to hold back the truth from us. One vital truth he hides from us is our royal personality, the fact that we are Kings & Queens. He's aware that the moment we come into the realization of our royal personality, it'll b revealed to us that we have an upper edge over him, and that he falls under our authority. He understands the power in royalty, and even the Bible talked about it in Ecclesiastes 8:4; "where the word of a King is, there is power...". He knows the moment you come into the true knowledge of your personality; as a king, he becomes subjected to you, and as a King does not negotiate with his subjects, he makes the decree.
I know many us are still wondering where the royalty comes from. Well, let me reveal to you that we were all made in the likeness of the King of Kings.
"Then God said, 'let us make man in our image, according to our likeness; let have dominion...over all the earth..." - Genesis 1:26 [NKJV].
God, the creator, created you to be a King, to have dominion over all the earth, to rule over the princes of this earth, in which the devil isn't left out.
Reading through Hebrews 2:5-8, you'll get to realize that God has set man over all the works of His hands, and has put all things in subjection under man's feet.
One thing is, you don't get to exercise your power and authority when you don't even know you have them, when you don't know there is a king you. The devil has actually planted ignorance in your heart, hiding the truth from you. But this is the good news, Christ said, "you shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free", knowing the truth of the fact that there is a king in you, sets you free from the bondage of the devil.
The wise man said in Ecclesiastes 10:7, "I have seen slaves on horseback, while princes go on foot like slaves" [NIV].
The princes don't just go on foot because they want to, they do so due to their ignorance. They've been blindfolded by their own slave[The devil]. And it is high time the prince got back on the horseback, and the slave on foot. It is time you start exercising your authority by reminding the devil that he is subjected to you and not the other way round.
Nevertheless, we must not ignore another fact, which is that before you can exercise your power or authority, you have to get acquinted with the King of kings, because it is from him we draw out the mysterious virtues to do mysterious things, He is the source of our power. It is until you walk with Him, that you walk in power, and you begin to speak with authority.
Hence, we can say that our royalty is of the supernatural, and as every natural happenings are determined by events in the supernatural, so also all natural things are subjected to the supernatural. The supernatural is the foundation of all things; the natural answers to it.
As a King from the supernatural, all natural things answer to you, in which poverty, sickness, and the likes are not left out, even the devil himself falls under your authority.
So you have to have stand, take charge and rule, because "You are a King".
