The King

What's up family, video three. We're going to talk about your authority, identity, and dominion. We're going to go deep. Oh man, it's going to be so good. Watch all the way to the end. So what spiritual kingship means and how it shapes your life. Let's go. Let's dive deep into this. I want you guys to really know your identity as a king and a priest, man, but let's talk about that revelation of kingship. So we're going to step into one of the most powerful revelations you will ever learn about yourself, what it means to be a king in the kingdom of God, where your authority actually comes from, how your identity produces spiritual dominion and how kingship connects to Christ's Melchizedek priesthood, sorry, that was a, what's it called? The tongue twister and how kingship connects to Christ's Melchizedek priesthood without making you part of that order. Again, without making you part of that order. So before anything else, let me begin with this simple fact. It's a biblical foundation. You are a king, you are a priest, but you are not from the order of Melchizedek. Only Jesus holds that eternal priesthood. Psalm 110, four says the Lord has sworn and will not relent. You are a priest forever. According to the order of Melchizedek, the oath was made to Christ alone, not us. But here's the power. Because you are in Christ, you share the same authority, access, intimacy, dominion that flow from his Melchizedek order. Even though you do not belong to that order yourself, just like you are born of God without becoming God. I'm going to say it again, just like you are born of God, born from above, born again,

but you are not God. You operate under Christ's priesthood without becoming part of his priestly order. So it's like you get saved, you're born again, but you're not God. You're a son, but he's the son of all sons. You're a king, but he's the king of all kings. You're a priest, but he's the priest of all priests. We are in him, so because we're in him, we share in his priesthood and kingship. But he's the only one from the order of Melchizedek, just like he's the only one who is literally God. So that's identity, that's kingship, that's dominion. Let's go deeper. So what does it mean to be a king? A king is not someone with physical crowns or earthly power. A king spiritually is someone who carries God-given authority, governs spiritual territory, enforces heaven's will, decrees with divine backing, confronts darkness, shifts atmospheres, walks in rulership, lives from identity and not insecurity. Again, lives from identity and not insecurity. This is why Paul wrote, Romans 5.17, those who receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the one Jesus Christ. My God. You reign, but you reign through Christ, not through your own order, not through your own anointing, not through your own righteousness, not through your own position. Your kingship is not independent. Your kingship is derived from Christ because you are a king and the king, hallelujah, lives in you because you're in him. So where does your authority come from? It comes from your union with Christ, not your personal rank. You don't reign because you're powerful, because of your personality, of who you are, has nothing to do with you. You reign because he's powerful.

You don't operate in authority because you are Melchizedek. You operate in authority because you are in the one who is Melchizedek's high priest. Revelation confirms this. To him who loved us and washed us from our sins in his own blood and has made us kings and priests to his God and father. You didn't crown yourself. He crowned you. He is the source of your calling. He is the source of your authority. He is the source of your dominion, the Melchizedek order and your identity. Let's talk about it. Let's make this again, extremely clear. Only Jesus holds the Melchizedek order. Hebrews 620, Jesus, the high priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek. But you do not belong to that order. There is only one high priest forever. There is no Melchizedek order for believers, but you operate under his priesthood because you're in him. My God, everything Jesus has access to, you literally benefit from. Everything that Jesus was given, just like a father who gives his son, right? Think about this. My son, Richard, let's say I'm about to pass away and I give him everything that I have. Just because I give him everything that I have doesn't mean he is me because he's still my son. No. We are God's sons, right? We are sons of God. We get to receive everything that Jesus has access to. We benefit from it. Again, it's like being born again. You're born of God, meaning God is the source of your nature, but you are not God himself. Jesus was crucified because he claimed to be equal to God, the Father. That's why he was crucified. The Jews called it blasphemy. So, Christ alone carries the Melchizedek order, but you carry the authority that flows from his

order, a royal priesthood. It's alignment, not equality. Delegated royalty, but not independent royalty. So, what does a king do? A king in the spirit declares over regions, you declare the word and things happen. You govern in your region, in your calling, in your assignment. You will govern. You will have authority. You set spiritual order. You resist darkness. You enforce God's will. You walk with confidence. You operate with clarity, and you speak heaven's language. This is why scripture says in Job 22, 28, you will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you. Hallelujah. And Ecclesiastes 8, 4, where the word of a king is, there is power. Again, where the word of a king is, there is power, and you're a king. But here's the key. Your declarations carry weight because Christ, the high priest, backs your voice with his authority. Hallelujah. Hebrew 7, 25 says, he always lives to make intercession for you. A king decrees, a priest intercedes. Christ covers both offices, and you operate under his identity. So, we are kings and priests. We decree. We have dominion. We intercede, but ultimately under Christ, under his office. Hallelujah. So, kings, they don't react. They rule. Kingship destroys the victim mentality. I feel like a lot of people deal with this in Christ, the victim mentality, and they don't know their authority. They don't know their kingship, their priesthood, and because of that, nothing happens in their life. Guys, the devil lost on the cross, but if you don't know what you have in Christ, the devil will destroy you because you have all these weapons and all this identity and authority, but you're not using it by faith, and the devil has a field day. So, kings do not panic. They don't shrink back. They don't live confused. They don't live permission-based. They live reactive. So, kings set the tone, command the atmosphere, rule over emotion, crush fear, shut down attacks, and speak with authority, walk in identity, all according to the Word of God, not by what you want, your opinion. Again, by the Word of God because you are under Christ. You cannot operate in authority, priesthood, kingship, outside of the Word of God. This is why learning the Word of God is vital. It is essential. It is mandatory. If you don't know the Word, you don't know who you are. A king is not shaped by circumstance. A king is shaped by identity. Proverbs 23, 7, as he thinks in his heart, so he is he. You and you think royal, you live royal. You are royalty. Again, some of you might be saying, well, I don't feel like it. Your feelings don't matter. It's the truth. Just like if somebody came to me, for example, when I wake up. Let me give a good example.

If I wake up and I just don't feel like I'm saved, it doesn't matter what I feel. I'm saved. I'm born again. I put my faith in Christ. My feelings don't dictate the truth. It doesn't make sense. We go off of feelings more than we do off of truth, and then these lies of the enemy dictate our lives, and then we wonder why we're going through so much unnecessary warfare. Kings carry responsibility. Kingship is not pride. It's confidence and stewardship. God wants us to be confident about who we are in Him. He wants that badly. Kingship is not pride, meaning you're above God or equal to God. It's stewardship, realizing I'm in Christ. He's given me all this. I'm going to steward it to manifest heaven here on earth. Let your kingdom come. Let your will be done here on earth as it is in heaven. A kingdom must guard their mind, their purity, their heart, their household, their devotion, their worship, their obedience, and their calling. You can't rule publicly if you compromise privately. You can't govern spiritually if you neglect your altar. Your authority flows from your connection to Christ's priesthood. Some of you know what you're called to do in Christ and haven't been doing it because you don't believe in it. Remember, it's been given to you by Christ himself. Steward it. That's our job here on earth is to steward what we have, to advance the gospel, advance the kingdom, not bury our gifts, not bury our talents, multiply them, see souls saved, see people impacted, knowing about Jesus, and then transition to glory in heaven and be like, wow, God, look what you did through me because I knew who I was in you. You give him the crown, but then he still blesses you. It's crazy. It's it's straight grace. We don't deserve it kings walk under christ not independent of him This is a big one. Some people want the kingship, but they don't want the priesthood Just because you're a king and you have all this access doesn't mean you can disconnect and go do your own thing And live your own life and use by faith what you've been given in christ for your own glory No, you're not independent of him. That's rebellion. You are a king, but you're not the king You are a priest, but you're not the high priest you are under christ melchizedek order, but you are not in it Your authority is powerful because his order is eternal everything you are flows from everything he is And your dominion has power because his priesthood has permanence so my brothers and my sisters walk as a king

under the king of kings Family, you are not small Ordinary random Powerless. Oh, but i've been through so much of my life. I don't feel worthy Well, guess what because of what christ did on the cross? You are now worthy regardless of how you feel regardless of what you've been through regardless of whatever circumstances you're going through right now Oh, but i'm going through all this i'm dealing with sickness. My family's not safe. Okay. Well, guess what? Now you have authority to fight against these things to claim it to Decree it to declare it and start shifting things. That's why you came to christ You came to christ Not just to be saved from something but to be saved for something into something You are now in christ saved to manifest to to literally the kingdom of god to be advanced Through your obedience through your identity through your faith through your kingship and priesthood Oh, but i'm going through all this in my mind. Okay your mind you thinking you're you're a coward You're suicidal you're depressed you're rejected. But guess what? That's not the truth though So, what are you going to do when you renew your mind knowing the truth you're going to say it out loud You're going to decree it as a king the truth and break those lies cast out those demons Receive that inner healing because jesus christ was striped so you can be healed He died on that cross so you can be a king and a priest forgiven empowered with dominion and authority God doesn't want us moving like pitiful wimpy christians He wants us to know who we are in him because he's in love with us because he's our father and he wants us to Walk in what he's given us. It's like my son. Imagine my son I'm, I I give him let's say for example, I have a home that I own and I give him the home Here son. I love you. You're my son Here's my home and he has the key to the home and he feel like he feels Like he doesn't deserve to live in it. So he lives outside and sleeps in the rain as a father I'm gonna be i'm gonna be pissed off What are you doing? And he's out there in the in the rain dad. I don't feel worthy dad

I don't feel worthy to have the home because i've done so many bad things. I stole from the cookie jar I lied to you and I say son. I don't care what you did. I forgive you get in the home And what sometimes what sometimes will a father do to make sure that the son wakes up if they can't see it Give him a little whipping right get in the home and slap him with the belt or get in the home and and and and take him by the By the shirt sometimes god has to do that to us Allow us to go through trials and be so broken and wondering why and then he comes with his word And his power to show you hey You don't have to be here I gave you authority. I you're a king What are you doing? Oh, but i'm dealing with poverty. Okay, you're dealing with it now go fight declare the word over it Go go go read the bible and read about how you can get out of this poverty You need to get a job get two jobs a worker who doesn't work doesn't eat Learn how to sow tithing offering first fruit unto god Learn about these principles so you can be blessed. I love you Oh, but but it didn't happen in a day. Okay. There's a there's a tree growing one day No, you plant the seed you water it you nurture it and eventually the fruit comes Can you maintain the truth in faith? Even though you don't see it in the physical faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things unseen You you can't have faith in something you already have You are god's royal priesthood you are christ delegated with royalty you are heaven's representative on earth You carry the authority of the one who holds the order of milkezadek You reign because the one who reigns forever lives in you your kingship is not your achievement It's your inheritance i'm gonna say this again Your kingship is not your achievement. It's your inheritance So let's say you slipped and fell today and watched pornography or yesterday You drank alcohol the day before you smoked weed or you fell into sin, whatever it is Does it mean? Oh, man Because of what I did. I can't even walk in my kingship for another two months. No

You repent you by changing your mind changing your direction Thanking God for the blood of Jesus that already forgave you and thank God that by you confessing you're wiping away all unrighteousness Which is all those those lies and strongholds being cleansed in your conscious and you walk in kingship now God doesn't want you waiting. He doesn't want to punish you so that you can so that you can feel terrible about yourself No, now it's your it's not because of your achievement. It's your inheritance So walk in it, they should break condemnation lies all these rejection and all these things the enemy does This is identity my brothers and sisters. This is spiritual warfare God bless you guys and see you in the next lesson
