And formed us into a kingdom (a royal race), priests
to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and the power and the majesty
and the dominion throughout the ages and forever and ever. Amen (so be
it).
· We are now
royalty in Christ, we are so blessed, that now we may be called the sons of
God! We have been given the very glory of our Lord and Savior, right now, so
that we may be one with God, just as Jesus is One with God!
· I have given
to them the glory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one
[even] as We are one: John 17:22
· For those whom He
foreknew [of whom He was aware and loved beforehand], He also destined from
the beginning [foreordaining them] to be molded into the image of His Son
[and share inwardly His likeness], that He might become the firstborn among
many brethren. And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called; and
those whom He called, He also justified (acquitted, made righteous,
putting them into right standing with Himself). And those whom He justified, He
also glorified [raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state
of being]. Romans 8:29-30
· We are now a
Kingdom of Priests. We are not becoming a Kingdom of Priests, we are a Kingdom of Servants.
Just as Jesus is a King and a High Priest, so are we, because we have been made one
with Him. You see we can be no other way, we are now our Lords physical body on
the earth, Ephesians 5:30. And
as 1 John 4:17 teaches us, as
Jesus is, so are we in this world. Jesus prayed in John 17 multiple times that
we would be one with Him and Jesus was crucified to insure that we would be!
Amen, we are now one with Jesus and that is why Revelation is such a great
prophesy to read. Just wait and see how God is going to use the Body of Christ
on this earth, it is spectacular!
