Our Covenant As Priests And Kings

Those of us in perfect unity will walk in the fullness of the Covenant given to us by FATHER.

Jeremiah wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 31:

31 “The day is coming,” says the LORD, “when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and Judah. 32 This covenant will not be like the one I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand and brought them out of the land of Egypt. They broke that covenant, though I loved them as a husband loves his wife,” says the LORD.

33 “But this is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel on that day,” says the LORD. “I will put MY instructions deep within them, and I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be MY people. 34 And they will not need to teach their neighbors, nor will they need to teach their relatives, saying, ‘You should know the LORD.’ For everyone, from the least to the greatest, will know ME already,” says the LORD. “And I will forgive their wickedness, and I will never again remember their sins.”

We are in this Covenant now and we need to access those instructions deep within us.  Yes, they are there and accessible.

In Luke chapter 22, Jesus spoke:

After supper was over, he lifted the cup again and said, “This cup is my blood of the new covenant I make with you, and it will be poured out soon for all of you.”

Jesus activated the New Covenant by His Blood and this is why the adversary and his demons don’t want us to know and understand our Covenant.  This gave us the right to rule and reign. 

In the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants and He sent and signified it by His angel to His Beloved servant John, who bore witness to the Word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. The Beloved Disciple recorded the following:

4 John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:

​Grace to you and peace from Him WHO is and WHO was and WHO is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, 5 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, 6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

In our Covenant, we have two fundamental function and responsibilities.  We are to be “kings” who rule and “priests” who minister.  A king rules over a kingdom and we are to rule over the real estate we take back from the ruler of darkness.  This includes the entire earth.  At some point in the near future the entire earth shall be filled with FATHER’S Glory. 

Habakkuk wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 2:

14 For as the waters fill the sea,

the earth will be filled with an awareness

of the glory of the LORD.

All corruption will be eliminated and in its place will be the Glory of GOD!  We have been tasked with the responsibility as kings to bring forth this glory and embrace the rulership given to us by FATHER. 

We have the nature of both a king and a priest embedded within us in Christ. Christ is the One Who “made us” into this Holy order and union. It is already done.

As kings, we do not want to be on the wrong side of Jesus’ Kingship.  As priests, we do not want to do anything inconsistent with the Divine mandate of Jesus’ earthly ministry of doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil.

The Beloved Disciple further recorded by The Holy Spirit in Revelation chapter 5:

8 Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9 And they sang a new song, saying:

​​“You are worthy to take the scroll,

​​And to open its seals;

​​For You were slain,

​​And have redeemed us to God by Your blood

​​Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

10 ​​And have made us kings and priests to our God;

​​And we shall reign on the earth.”

Most believers have focused on the ministry aspect of Jesus as though we are to be submitted to the world while we pursue ministering to the lost.  However, a king does not submit to the adversary or his vessels of dishonor.  We are to be courageous and overcomers in our walk when it comes to resistance and opposition. 

A king does not cower down and hide when confronted.  We are called to be strong in THE LORD and as we are led by THE SPIRIT, we will walk in the power and authority as a king.  We are to do battle with the kingdom of darkness and not shy away from the aspect of our walk.  Our mindset must change in order to embrace kingship which is part of the New Covenant.

In Hebrews chapter 10, Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit and affirmed our Covenant:

15 But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before,

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,” 17 then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

FATHER is changing our mindset with HIS Word and is moving us into the fullness of our callings in both areas: ministry and kingship.  We need to embrace both for now is the time.

A king has dominion and we should walk in it.
