Kings and Priests

Where are you my brothers and sisters,

O Kings and Priests of Israel,
Heirs of Heaven 

and Earth? 

 How much longer 
will you continue in your mediocrity,
will you bask in simplicity,

before you come into the fullness of who you are?
Revelations 1.6
Revelations 5.10
1 Peter 2.9

It is not written that:

the things our brother Yashua did,

We shall do also,

and even greater things shall we do?
John 14.12


Is it not written that:

nothing 
is impossible for us!

Matthew 17.20

Luke 1.37

That whatever we ask

In his name,

He will do it for us!
John 14.13

Do we really believe this? 
Did we ever really know?

 Or have we forgotten?

Remember the thoughts of your youth,
When anything was possible!
Do we now take this great and precious promise 
for granted?
Do we think of it as fantasy?
As mere religious mythology?

Remember Peter?

a simple man just like us.

A fisherman by trade,

who walked on water

just like the Messiah;

except the Messiah was proficient at it. 
Matthew 14.26

Do we not get 
that Peter healed many people

from severe infirmities,

without inoculations,

without aspirin. 

Do we not get

that Peter raised the woman Tabatha

from the dead?

She was gone.
He brought her back. 
Acts 9.40

Yashua raised Lazarus 

from the Dead,
and in so doing, convinced Peter 

it not only could be done, 
but that he could also do it.
Do we not know that we can too?

Peter become powerful
because he stood against the existing order
by standing for the new order.
So powerful did he become
that he was jailed for sedition and insurrection.

He was arrested, imprisoned, bound, chained, 

and confined between two guards.

Just a few weeks prior

several of the other apostles were

arrested and jailed, 

only to escape and continue 

their sedition. 

Peter was loosed from his chains,
and led out of jail by "an angel."

Peter escaped from jail.
Acts 12.5-9

Do we acknowledge 
the possibility of these things?
Or just give them lip service in passing.

It is not written that

We have the mind of Christ.

1 Corinthians 2.16

Do we accept this?

We have been given 

access to the Power
of the Creator of the Universe, 
who is our Father!
We have been given 
His delegation,
granted his power,

to take dominion of Earth,
as Political Ambassadors
in the name of the King of Kings

as his Kings and Priests,

the Sons of the King

of the Universe.

John 1.2

Revelations 1.6;

Revelations 5.10

It is written

that we have all power

over the enemy

Luke 10.19

What are we waiting for?
