![DAY 1: CAN ANYONE BE ROYAL?
[1 of 2] Years ago, when we lived on the East Coast, my daughter Rebecca inspired what I think would be an excellent children’s book. Like all little girls, she had been reading and watching stories involving knights, princesses, kingdoms, realms, quests, enchanted forests, and all other aspects of chivalrous lands. She was deeply enamored with the idea of somehow becoming the princess to a handsome, honorable prince who arrives unexpectedly and ends up being devoted to her only. Hearing her passion,
God worked on my heart to steer her thinking back toward Him and His Word. How would the Bible best be explained to a little girl enthralled with the idea that Prince Charming would come sweep her up and carry her off to his beautiful castle, where they would marry and live out the
rest of their lives in luxury and happiness. Unfortunately for; Rebecca, she also lived with a common disappointment that most fairytale-consuming young girls come to realize: Her parents do not have royal blood, so she is disqualified from nobility.
But then, one day, God had to finally smack my head with a thought that should have come to me sooner: Wait a second, that fairytale is the true story of Scripture. We are nobles! At the moment we trust in Jesus’s sacrifice of Himself on the cross, we become born-again and are instantly princes and princesses! As a family of Christians, that means Rebecca’s mother and I have royal blood, and our daughter also received her princess title at the moment she accepted Jesus—the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Christ has created
a borderless kingdom, a powerful kingdom above all kingdoms.
In fact, He created and owns everything! | image tagged in jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/6tn300.jpg)
![DAY 2: CAN ANYONE BE ROYAL? [2 of 2] Even though God could have scrapped His human project, having no need of us rebellious children who often grieve Him, God decided to send His only Son—the Prince who volunteered—to perform the princely act of sacrificing His earthly life. Jesus unexpectedly came to rescue us, and right now this universe-owning Prince is building palaces, eagerly waiting for the day when His Father tells Him to come back to the air above our world, catch all His royal sons and daughters up to meet Him there, and whisk us away to be in heaven with Him. Christ will be coming for every Christian—all His princely people. And our titles are not just for gaining entrance into heaven’s royal balls and buffets; we are set to rule and reign with Jesus on earth and in the heavens, living lovingly, peacefully, and joyfully ever after, forever, and ever, and ever. When I began to explain all this to my daughter Rebecca, her eyes lit up like I had not seen before—
she got it! I said something like: “Rebecca, that is what’s so
cool about being a Christian. The world only offers make-believe
stories of unattainable royal lives in non-existent lands. But with Jesus, you truly are Princess Rebecca!”
I think these nobility themes are constantly added to our stories because we inwardly know this earthly life goes by in a flash, and we have an eternity coming—that is meant to be spent in God’s kingdom. Whether we acknowledge His sovereignty or not, He has put it on our hearts. However, this regal future can be squandered by those too self-absorbed to want a relationship with their Creator—the same issue Satan had that led to him creating sin.
But our glorious, princely position is real and every Christian has it—right now! The next stop is Jesus coming to get us, escorting His people to His heavenly kingdom where we will spend years at a massive victory celebration with God, after which we fellow princes and princesses will ride back to earth with Jesus, where we will rule and reign with Him in His millennial kingdom. After those thousand years spent watching over the earth with God, He will create new
heavens and a new earth—a new, sinless creation! So, that’s who we are,
Christian princes and princesses. It is our destiny! | image tagged in jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/6tn4cy.jpg)
![DAY 3: WHY STUDY THE BELIEFS AND PRACTICES OF VARIOUS WORLD RELIGIONS, CULTS, AND THE OCCULT?[1 of 2] Passing along propaganda news, people easily become copycat Christians, just repeating unbiblical claims—supposed truths about Jesus Christ. That is, until they gain real biblical conviction. I want you to know what is true, and why it is true. During the years we at Sunrise Bible Church and Get A Life Ministries have been putting out our huge study called World Religions, Cults & the Occult, (an ongoing series that has involved many years of intense research), we have been comparing false-faith systems—greedy, works-based practices invented by men and women—to the
truth of a free faith in biblical Christianity. Why? So that the information will equip you with an accurate understanding of Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, New Age, Roman Catholicism, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witness, Seventh Day Adventists, Christian Science, Scientology, the Charismatic Movement, Witchcraft, and Satanism. Only the truth will help you be a strong, knowledgeable, and confident advocate for God’s Truth that is Jesus Christ. First John 5:19 teaches us that the entire planet lies in the power of the evil one; therefore, the world’s false religious philosophies are all the devil’s doing. How can I make such a bold statement? Because the Bible tells us Satan is not only a murderer, but also a liar and the father of all
lies. Every idea that veers from scriptural truth
has a demonic influence. Satan’s servants
are false teachers disguising themselves
as friendly givers of truth and doers
of righteousness—but it’s all just lies. | image tagged in jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/6tro2b.jpg)
