Daily Devotional Reign in Life For if because of one mans trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [Gods] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) (Romans 5:17, AMP). It says here in Romans 5:17, We are to reign in life as kings. When God looks at us, He doesnt see us in weak, defeated, leftover positions. Not at all. God sees you and me as rulers, as royalty. We have His royal blood flowing through our veins. You and I are supposed to reign. Do you know what that word reign means? It means your time in power. God said were to reign in life. That means as long as youre alive that is your time in power. You dont have a two-year term like the Mayor or a four-year term like the President. Your term is to rule and reign every single day, to be victorious, to rise to new levels, to accomplish great things. Everyone has days when they dont feel like royalty, they dont feel powerful. On those days, if you can just remember to reach down and check your pulse, and as long as you feel something beating, you can say, Its still my time to reign! Let that be a reminder to put on a new attitude. And sometimes you have to do this by faith. By faith you need to walk like a king, talk like a king, think like a king, dress like a king, smile like a king. Dont go by what you see. Go by what you know. There is royalty in your DNA. You have the blood of a champion, and you were created to reign in life! A Prayer for Today Father in heaven, thank You for making me an heir to Your promises. Thank You for giving me Your power so that I can rule and reign with You. Help me to see myself the way You see me so that I can live the abundant life You have in store for me. In Jesus Name. Amen. Have A Great Day! Riseup.us Find me on Facebook Mark W. Koch
