A Royal Family

Truth Confessions

1 Peter 2:9 NKJV, But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 

1 Peter 2:9 TPT, But you are God’s chosen treasure—priests who are kings, a spiritual “nation” set apart as God’s devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to experience his marvelous light, and now he claims you as his very own. He did this so that you would broadcast his glorious wonders throughout the world.                 

In the Kingdom of God, what does it mean to be a part of a ROYAL family?  The Greek word for royal in 1 Peter 2:9 is Basileios.  It means belonging to, appointed, suitable for the King.  This word is from the root word Basileia, meaning king, Royal Dominion.  Those who live in this dimension of royalty, display that attributes of Christ’s kingdom.  They are called to Royal dominion and clothed with Royal dignity.

Being a part of a Royal family also means you’re not just a church member but you are a son.  There is a difference in Sons and church members.  Sons display the integrity of God’s kingdom in their life.  They act like a son who knows the character of our Heavenly Father.

Our Confession:

  • I live within a Royal Kingdom.  My Heavenly Father is the King and I am His Son. I have free access to His Kingdom through the blood of the Lamb.
    • Hebrews 12:28 TPT   Since we are receiving our rights to an unshakeable kingdom we should be extremely thankful and offer God the purest worship that delights his heart as we lay down our lives in absolute surrender, filled with awe.
    • Luke 12:32 NKJV   Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
    • Matthew 10:7 TPT   And as you go, preach this message: ‘Heaven’s kingdom realm is accessible, close enough to touch.’
  • I am in His Royal family.  According to Revelation 1:6, I am a king and priest unto God.
    • Revelation 1:6 NKJV   and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
  • I have a Royal inheritance.  Everything that the Father is and has is a part of me.  I share in all that He is and inherit everything that Christ is.
    • Romans 8:16-17 TPT   For the Holy Spirit makes God’s fatherhood real to us as he whispers into our innermost being, “You are God’s beloved child!” 17 And since we are his true children, we qualify to share all his treasures, for indeed, we are heirs of God himself. And since we are joined to Christ, we also inherit all that he is and all that he has. We will experience being co-glorified with him provided that we accept his sufferingsas our own.
  • As Royalty, I am made in His image, His likeness and I am like Him.  As He is so am I.  I act like Him, I walk like Him, I talk like Him.
    • Genesis 1:26 NASB  Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness;
    • 1 John 4:17 NASB   By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.
  • In this Royal family I am blessed.  His blessings come on me and overtake me.  I am blessed going in and blessed going out.  The Father opens the good treasures of heaven and pours them out upon me.  Everything I set my hand to is blessed by the King.
    • Ephesians 1:3 NASB   Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
    • Deuteronomy 28:1-6 NASB  Now it shall be, if you diligently obey the Lord your God, being careful to do all His commandments which I command you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. 2 All these blessings will come upon you and overtake you if you obey the Lord your God: 3 “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country. 4 “Blessed shall be the offspring of your body and the produce of your ground and the offspring of your beasts, the increase of your herd and the young of your flock. 5 “Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. 6 “Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.
  • As a son in this incredible Royal Family.  I walk in the statutes of the Kingdom of God.  I see everything through the lenses of His Kingdom.
    • Psalm 19:8 NKJV   The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes;
    • Psalm 119:6 NKJV   I will delight myself in Your statutes; I will not forget Your word.
    • Psalm 119:54 NKJV  Your statutes have been my songs In the house of my pilgrimage.
  • As Royalty, I am a seeker of His Kingdom.  I do not seek my own needs but I seek out the needs of the Kingdom.  As I seek His Kingdom, all things are added unto me.
    • Matthew 6:33 TPT   So above all, constantly chase after the realm of God’s kingdomand the righteousness that proceeds from him. Then all these less important things will be given to you abundantly.
    • Matthew 6:33 NASB   But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

One thought on “A Royal Family”

  1. Yes and amen! All these scriptures constitute our divine pedigree, our royal identification documents and our supernatural adoption papers, signed and sealed with the blood of Jesus Christ.
