THE WAY OF KINGS (Part 1)
Revelation 5:10 "And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth." KJV
We know that we are not self-made kings rather someone crowned us kings. We are not made kings for ourselves but for Him(God). We are made kings to the end that God will be glorified.
Why would God make us Kings? Because that's who He is. God is not a president(presidents are elected). The Kingdom of God is not a democracy, its an autocracy(all power belongs to the King, monarchy). God is the self-installed and self-coronated eternal King.
Our kingship is based on the fact that we are born of the King. No one is a king with God who is not born again.
Kingdom is the Kings domain/dominion. Earth is man's domain as king. The kingdom of man is not in heaven but on earth.
One of the ways to enter into God's blessing is to grow. Genesis 1: 26-28 The way to rule and reign is to grow. When a Christian refuses to grow, it makes him easy to erase. You must see growing as a matter of urgency; either you grow or die. Psalms 115:16 "The Heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath He given to the children of men." KJV
Psalms 24:1 "The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein." KJV
Man as king on the earth is a custodian. So man is God's servant on the earth. In the Kingdom, sonship can't be revoked but things can be taken.
