*Reigning in Life Through Christ Jesus*

_Revelation 5:9-10 (NKJV), Romans 5:17b (NKJV)_
_And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth." *…much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ._

Jesus has empowered you by making you a king and a priest; but it is you that determines how much you are going to reign and exercise the dominion and influence He has given you. One thing you must do to dominate like Christ is to grow spiritually and activate the life of Christ This is achieved by growing in your knowledge of Christ, praying (especially in the Spirit) and fellowshipping with other believers. You must also know how to speak God's word with boldness and confidence. Ecclesiastes 8:4 (NKJV) says, “where the word of a king is, there is power; And who may say to him, "What are you doing?" One thing that amazed people about Jesus was that He spoke as one with authority, Mark 1:22. Be conscious of God's presence both in you and with you and boldly declare what God is saying about you.

Hebrews 13:5-6 (NKJV) says,“let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."So we may boldly say: "The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”

Another factor that will cause you to reign in life is the wisdom of God. Christ is your wisdom, 1Cor.1:30. People were amazed at the mighty works that Jesus did because of the wisdom of God that operated in His life, Mark 6:2. Today, God is filling you with His wisdom that will make you outstanding in every area of your life, Col.1:9-10. Like Jesus, you will always know what to do. You will dominate the devil and evil and love and bless the lives of men.

FAITH DECLARATION:
I am reigning in life by Christ Jesus. I am manifesting the boldness, authority and wisdom of Christ.
