For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:20

God is a master communicator. If you take a close look at our opening text, you’ll see that God did not say our conversation is of heaven but rather, IN heaven. This means that everything we are here on earth has its origin from heaven.

The NIV rendering says,

But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ.

The AMP translation explains this further,

But we are citizens of the state (commonwealth, homeland) which is in heaven, and from it also we earnestly and patiently await [the coming of] the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [as] Savior.

What a life! We are citizens of heaven. A God-child that recognizes and maintains his part as a citizen of heaven while here on earth would trigger heavens’ reaction.

You are more than you think you are. You have got to understand that there is someone God has made you. This is why it is important to study; because, for every time you study the Word, you see the real and complete person God has made you.

2 Corinthians 3:18 says,

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Jesus saying, “…It is finished…” on that cross was an introduction to the new life. You see, through the power of substitution, divinity became humanity that humanity might become divinity.

In essence, the death and resurrection of Christ saw us getting translated into a royal line. You are of a royal breed. There are characters that royalties possess.

Royalties are huge planners, they never waste resources, they never run away from challenges and they do not speak or go anywhere and anyhow. Be like Jesus; train the royalty in you.

DECLARATION
I am royalty. I live up to what God has made me to be.

SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE
