A King’s Decree by Rich Oliver

During the past few months we have seen so many people going through very difficult and trying times.  And sadly, many of them simply accepted “what life threw at them”, and struggled along.

This awakened something in my heart, and I am feeling a resistance building up against the whole idea of always being a victim to circumstances, and soon Holy Spirit began to stir up a word in my heart.

What does the Word say?

Rev. 5:10 “And You have made them a kingdom (royal race) and priests to our God, and they shall reign as kings over the earth!”  and

Eph. 2:6  "And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus."

We have been called to a higher place of victory.  We have been appointed as kings to rule in this earth and not to fall victim to every attack of the enemy!  The king of a country or kingdom decides what to do in different circumstances and his orders and wishes are carried out to the letter.  A king makes things happen!

Then why is it that we, who are supposed to “rule and reign in this life in One Christ Jesus”, are so willing to accept defeat when sickness, poverty or adversity come our way.

Job 22:28-29 “You shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you;  and the light of God’s favor shall shine upon your ways.  When they make you low, you will say, There is a lifting up; and the humble person He lifts up and saves.”

Wow!  Isn’t this amazing?!  With God’s Holy Spirit living in us, we are able to know the will of God, and knowing His will for us, it is time that we DECIDE AND DECREE A THING, and it shall be established for us!

When a king sends out a decree, it is not a suggestion, but it is law!  It has to happen!  You and I are kings in the Kingdom of God and it is high time that we make up our minds that we will no longer be victims, but we will become victorious! We will send out a decree into the heavenly realms that says:

By His stripes we are healed.

We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

We are more than conquerors through Christ who loves us.

We are the head and not the tail.

The angels of God encamp around us.

No evil shall befall us or our loved-ones.

Our children are blessed, anointed, protected and live in God’s plan for their lives.

People will see us and call us BLESSED.

We will have enough to be a blessing to others

We will walk and live in the perfect will of God.

Etc. . . .

Will you join me today in deciding that we will rise up and be the kings and priests who God has called us to be?  Will you call out a decree of victory in your situation and see it be established for you?

We decree that you will have a week filled with God’s joy and glory!

Lindy and I love and BELIEVE in you!!
