Welcome to The Turnaround!
Introduction
He is worthy! Jesus gave His life to pay the price for us. We are so incredibly blessed to be loved by Him. That great sacrifice brings us into a close relationship with God and we will reign with Him on earth. Praise Him for redeeming us!
Insight
We are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb to be the ekklesia, the governing body of Christ. Our authority was given to us by Jesus and it is our responsibility to use our position as priests to pray God’s kingdom come, His will be done on earth as in heaven. It begins when we have accepted Him as savior. Then it extends to our personal life, our family, our territory and sphere of influence that he gives us.
As we grow and believe, we learn to declare, decree and walk out His word in our daily lives. Unfortunately we have not exercised our responsibility in this nation and now we must recover what the enemy has stolen.
Religion has separated and divided us but I believe the true ekklesia is coming together, being made righteous through Jesus and recovering what the enemy has stolen. Our identity in Christ is being restored as individuals and as priests and kings who stand in the gap and who rule in the heavenlies at the right hand of the father with Jesus. As priests, we pray, standing in the gap for those who don’t know him. As kings, we declare his rulership over all. We worship the Lamb who is worthy to receive glory, honor and power. Our worship and prayers rise as incense to the heavenlies.
God redeems. Our children need to know that they are made new in Christ. They need to know that as believers we are unified. We have a special relationship with God. We are His representatives. Our children need to know – We are heirs to the throne.
1 Peter 2:9 says: “But you are God’s chosen treasure —priests who are kings, a spiritual “nation” set apart as God’s devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to experience his marvelous light, and now he claims you as his very own. He did this so that you would broadcast his glorious wonders throughout the world.”
Our children are CHOSEN TREASURES! Set apart! Called out of darkness! They are His!
Are we disciplining them in this? Are they being taught just how much God loves them and the plans He has for them?
Turnaround Questions
Are we discipling our children with the knowledge of just how much Jesus has done for them?
Are we teaching our children how much God loves them and the plans He has for them?
Are we instilling in our children that they were made to Serve our God and reign on earth?
Prayer
Our Father, we come in the name of Yeshua, Jesus Christ thanking you for the privilege to enter your throne of Grace by his blood. Forgive us where we have failed in unbelief, doubt, and apathy in our responsibility as priests and kings. Help us receive the revelation of who we are as individuals and as the called out ones united by Holy Spirit. For our children’s sake we pray for a mighty move of Holy Spirit that they may see Jesus in us full of his power, love and authority. We join our prayers and worship together as kingdom righteousness is restored to our state nation and the world. In Yeshua’s name. Amen
