Day 16 "You Are Royalty"
Beauty of Humble Service
Good Morning Beauties!
“You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.” 1 Peter 2:9 NLT
Let’s look closer at this word, ROYALTY. The Biblical definition is, “Either belonging to a king (kingdom) or having kingly power, dignity, authority.” Beauties, I believe it’s both! We belong to the King - King Jesus, and through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, we have access to His power, dignity, and authority.
Are you able to grasp who you are and who’s you are? What does it mean to you to be part of God’s royal family? What do you picture in your mind? Selah.
“Don’t lord it over the people assigned to your care, but lead them by your own good example.” 1 Peter 5:3 NLT
There are many versions of a royal family here on Earth. Some are prideful and see themselves as better people than those they rule, while others truly serve their people with humility and love.
Jesus has given us the ultimate example of how to lead people - through humble service. How will you lead those God has put under your authority? What examples of Jesus have impacted you most? What lessons have you learned in your life’s journey? Selah.
