A Royal Priesthood
There is much confusion in the body of Christ today about what it means to walk in faith, authority, and the inheritance of God. Many Christians just do not know who they are in Christ.
“…You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation (God’s) own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. Once you were not a people (at all), but now you are God’s people; once you were un-pitied, but now you are pitied and have received mercy.”26
We are God’s very own chosen people set aside and called for the purpose of manifesting the light of God that lives within us by doing His works and displaying His likeness. Many Christians spend more time contemplating the plans of the enemy than developing faith in the plans of God. It is essentially giving the enemy authority in our lives that he does not have the right to exercise. The One who has all authority lives in us and has already defeated the enemy. He has given us His authority to manifest His works and display His likeness. As Christians, we need to spend more time focusing on what God is doing rather than what the enemy is doing! Spending our entire life in spiritual warfare is to settle for less than the abundant life!

Too many people give the enemy too much authority over their lives, and claim that "the devil made me do it." Nonsense. God gave us a free will.
