Scripture: Revelation 1:1-6

In Revelation 1:5-6 we are told, “…and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. 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, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.”  Revelation 1 declares Kingly authority to be ours!  It is there plainly and clearly for all to see.  Jesus rules over the kings of the earth and He died in order to make us Kings and Priests.  Jesus bought and paid for ultimate dominion in the earth.  Our call is to represent Him as both Savior and Judge!  Now the question is, what are we doing with that call?  If that identity has been stolen, then there is no demand for justice before the Throne.  What would your city be like if the police lost their badges?  Every Christian has a spiritual badge!  Very few even attempt to stop illegal traffic, and arrests are nearly non-existent.  Can we recover our identity in time to make a difference?  God promises to watch over His Word to perform it!
