Kings and priests

and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. – Revelation 1v6

‘He has made us kings and priests’ has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? The second part doesn’t have a real appeal to me, but I could handle the king bit. Kings have it made. They get to tell people what to do and they have to listen and do it. King Roger really sounds good to. I wouldn’t even change my name like some of those guys do.

But, I digress here. We have been honoured by the King of Kings by being made both kings and priests. I indeed am King Roger, but not in the sense of this guy dressed in nice clothes sitting on a throne and narking orders. .

I am a king and a priest to God Himself. Though a king I am under His dominion. The day is coming when we will no longer be subject to all the junk we are subject to now. Now we are ‘subject to the higher powers’ but one day we will reign with the Highest Power as His kingly priests.

We are already kings and priests. Now all we have to do is wait for the crowning day!
