(Control Earth’s Circumstances With Your Kingly Decrees)
TO THE BIBLE: Romans 5:17
“For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.”
LET’S TALK
Till the Rapture of the Church, we’re to reign in life (here on earth) through Jesus Christ. In the millennium period, we’re not going to reign through Him, but WITH Him. We’ll also reign with Him in the New Heaven and the New Earth.
The Bible says we are “…priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years” (Revelation 20:6 NIV). 2 Timothy 2:12 NIV says, “If we endure, we will also reign with him….” But that’s all in the future. Now, we reign through Him in this life. Hallelujah!
Walk in this consciousness. Remember what Romans 6:4 says: “Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too may walk in newness of life” (NASB). This new life is the life of kings. Revelation 5:10 says He’s made us kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
If you’re born again, you’re a new person with kingly values and mentality. Look at the world differently, from the perspective of victory and reigning. The Amplified Classic version of our opening verse says we shall reign as kings in the realm of life. You’re a king; reign as one! Rule with words; that’s what kings do.
The Bible says, “Where the word of a king is, there is power…” (Ecclesiastes 8:4). Exercise dominion through words. Issue commands to the devil, his cohorts, and the elements of this world, and they’ll hear and obey you, because you function in, and with the dominion of Christ.
You can alter the course of events and change circumstances from the privacy of your room. That’s why you should never be moved by anything. It doesn’t matter what the situation is; you can cause them to align with the will of God through your faith-filled words. Glory to God!

Romans 5:17 AMPC; Revelation 5:9-10
Speak:
I’ve been graced to reign in this life through righteousness. I make decrees, and they’re established because I function in, and with, the authority of Christ. I refuse sickness, failure, defeat and death. I reject anything that’s not of God and endorse only that which is consistent with His perfect will for me. Hallelujah!
