The Consecration of the Prophet, Priest and King Part 2 - The Anointing and Consecration of the King


The Consecration of the Prophet, Priest and King


 

Part 2 – The Anointing and Consecration of the King


 

And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Rev 1:6

 

Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. 1Co 14:1

 

               Jesus has called all of us to be Kings, Priests, and to some extent, Prophets. This call was placed on us either at the time of our birth, or since coming to Christ as Savior. Regardless of when it was given to us, it has been given to all of us. That does not mean that the anointing to walk in that calling automatically manifests, however. As with everything else in the Kingdom, God has laid out a specific series of steps, a pattern that we are to follow to obtain the anointing for the walk in the calling.

          This is exactly why some members of the Body prophesy, even though they are not Office Prophets. This is also the reason that some members of the Body never prophesy. It is because they have either completed the steps in this pattern, or they have not.

Since we are all called to do so, it seems to me to be imperative that we discover what the steps are and how to follow them to the gifting we are supposed to be walking in. After all, if God has something just waiting out there for me, I want it.

In part 1 of this series, we discussed the anointing and consecration process for the Prophet. As part of this, we also detailed the qualities that God expects in His prophets. In this article, we will be discussing the anointing and consecration of the Kings in the Kingdom of God. We will also be detailing the personality traits of God’s kings, and what He expects of them. It is my hope that as we discuss each of these callings in-depth. That we will discover what we need to do and how we need to pray for these callings and giftings to manifest in our lives.

 

And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons. 1Sa 16:1

 

He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds: From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance. So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands.

Psa 78:70-72

 

         The first thing that we must understand about the calling of the king, is that it is not something that one can aspire to. Kings are always chosen by God. As in the case of David, it has nothing to do with being the eldest, the best at anything, or even one’s status. Kings are always chosen by God because of what is in their hearts.

 

And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will. Act 13:22

 

         When God places the calling and the anointing of the King on one of His children, it is with the express intent to gift a man or woman after His own heart with the necessary tools to accomplish His will. And while the gifting of the King comes with special gifts and special privileges, it also comes with responsibilities.

A king is made a king in order to do certain things for the country they are king over. They must be good stewards over their kingdom. They must provide for those in the kingdom, and protect them from those that would take what they have by force. The calling of the king in the Kingdom of God is very similar.

 

And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he. Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah. 1Sa 16:12-13

 

          First of all, we need to understand that a king does not become a king by simply putting on the crown. They must be specifically anointed for the job. Usually, the Lord will have a minster of some authority in the Kingdom anoint them for the task. Once this is done appropriately, the Spirit of the Lord usually responds immediately.

          The anointing of the King always comes with a special presence of the Holy Spirit. The King’s ministry is a ministry in and of itself, so the Holy Spirit will generally bring the new spiritual gifts needed for the ministry when He comes. While every king is anointed and gifted specifically for his or her own ministry, new gifts will always come with the anointing.

          The anointing of the king and actually walking in the ministry of the king may be years apart from one another. However, as far as God is concerned, once the anointing has taken place, a new king has been brought forth.

          In fact, it would be very unusual for someone to be anointed as a king, and then begin to walk in it immediately. There is a training period required for all kings. It may take several years to get through the training before actually taking on the ministry of the king. The training usually begins in earnest once the new king is anointed.

 

Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spake, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh. Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel. 2Sa 5:1-2

 

 

          As I’ve previously stated, the ministry of the king comes with several new responsibilities. While each ministry may be different in the minute details, there are several things that all kings ministries have in common.

 

So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

Joh 21:15-17

 

          The first thing a king is required to do is to feed the Body of Christ. This is, of course, a spiritual feeding, but it may also manifest in the physical realm as well. Those that walk in the ministry of the king are required to be good at this particular area of ministry, and will be well trained to do so.

          By feeding the Body, I am not just talking about getting behind a pulpit and preaching a fiery sermon on Sunday mornings. Anyone can do that. The king is required to spiritually pour himself into those that God brings into his circle of influence.

          When God fed the children of Israel in the desert for forty years, the food He gave them kept them not just fed, but physically free from diseases as well. As kings, we are required to pour out the nature of Christ into our people so that we remove the burden of spiritual diseases from them because of what we are feeding them. This requires a much more intimate relationship than a Sunday morning sermon. It requires a one-on-one fellowship. And this is not optional.

         

For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. Joh 6:33-35

 

          The fact is, that a true king will feed Christ to his people so well that they will never again hunger or thirst for the presence of God because they have been left unsatisfied. They will always hunger or thirst for more of Christ, but it will never be from a lack of spiritual nutrition.

 

Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel. 2Sa 5:2

 

          In order to be a king in the kingdom of God, the newly anointed king must have a background in spiritual warfare. Not just as an individual engaging in warfare, but in leading the people of God in engagements as a Body. While we are called to warfare, leading others into a spiritual engagement against the enemy is a skill and it requires refinement through practice.

          The first type of warfare that a king will engage in will almost always be as an individual.

And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. 1Sa 17:34-35

 

          After a little practice engaging in warfare for their own lives, a king will usually be given a burden from the Lord to engage in warfare on the behalf of others. This may be in intercession, or it may be by praying over that individual in person. Regardless, it is a skill that must be mastered in order to move forward.

 

And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine. And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the man that bare the shield went before him. And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance. And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field. Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands. And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew nigh to meet David, that David hasted, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine. And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David. Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled. And the men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until thou come to the valley, and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even unto Gath, and unto Ekron. And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they spoiled their tents. And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent. 1Sa 17:40-54

 

          Once the art of individual warfare has been mastered, the king will then be given opportunities to lead the Body of Christ in warfare against the enemy. This skill is a must-have skill for any king. Warfare is a primary part of the king’s calling.

 

And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him. 1Sa 19:8

 

Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel. 2Sa 5:2

               Coming to the place of being proven in warfare is something that takes some time to accomplish. It is also something that should never be rushed or rushed into. We can get ourselves into some bad places by jumping into warfare situations with powerful demonic forces when the anointing isn’t there to engage. While we always have authority over demons in the name of Jesus, we should not attempt to engage with one unless the anointing of the Holy Spirit is there for the task. Unless the Spirit of the Lord prompts me to engage with a spirit of the enemy, I ignore it unless it manifests right in front of me. A challenge like that must be answered, and the anointing of the Lord is always there when that happens. Otherwise, don’t go jumping into something that you may not have the authority level to engage with. Just a word of advice from someone that learned the hard way.

 

Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD by Samuel. 1Ch 11:3

 

          Part of the job of the king is to bring unity to the Body of Christ. This part of his job will always manifest in the way that he talks, ministers and preaches. A king will never intentionally bring division to the Body. Not because of race. Not because of denomination. Not because of anything. A king will always be seeking common ground with other brothers and sisters in Christ, and will always concentrate on those things which are in common instead of those things in dispute.

          Because of who he is in Christ, other members of the Body will be prone to recognize the king for who he is in Christ. They may not be able to put an adequate label on him or his ministry, but he will always be recognized as one that carries kingdom authority. Those in the Body that are led of the Spirit will always know that a man or woman of God that carries some serious kingdom authority has just entered the room. He will be respected or treated disrespectfully due to envy of his position, but he will generally stand out. Those in the Body that are not led of the Spirit will tend to shun him because of his position. Regardless, he will be treated a little differently than most other people.

 

David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. 2Sa 5:4

 

Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened, And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli, Luk 3:21-23

 

          The number thirty was very significant in the age of a man or woman in biblical times. Thirty was recognized as the age of spiritual maturity. As such, it was the age of priesthood. One could only be ordained as a priest if they were a Levite from the descendants of Aaron, and were at least thirty years of age.

          Age is also very important to the calling of the king. It is not important that the king be thirty years old. It is important, however, that they have reached a place of spiritual maturity. Those that are not spiritually mature yet would soon find themselves overwhelmed by the job.

          Just a side-note about the scriptures above: it says in the text that David reigned for forty years. I find it interesting that forty represents extended or enlarged rule, as well as a period of probation ending in spiritual renewal. Both definitions apply to David’s rule over Israel.

          Just like David, anyone walking in the call of the king will have been through a series of trials that ended in spiritual renewal. It is part of the testing process for those that would carry this anointing. They must have proven themselves in a series of crises before donning the mantle for this job. If they have not been through such a series of trials, then they are not walking in the fullness of the calling, yet.

          I might add, here that this testing process can be severe. So severe that these people will be shunned by others. Even those in the Body. Especially those in the Body.

As Christians, many tend to see a series of severe trials as evidence that God has taken His hand off of someone because of disobedience, unforgiveness, etc. Just like Job, someone going through this testing process will find themselves being lectured time and again by well-meaning but ignorant Christians.

The fact is, that anyone walking through a series of severe trials is most likely to be exactly where God wants them. As a result, the enemy and the world are doing everything possible to knock them to the right or to the left. Those that refuse to be moved usually get hammered by severe trials for an extended period of time. It is not about their disobedience, it is actually about their obedience. The more powerful the call on their life, the worse the trials will become.

If you are facing severe trials like this in your life, know that God has really good things for you on the other side of everything that you are struggling with. If you need prayer, please send me a message through Facebook, or by emailing me at phlighthouseministries@hotmail.com. I have been through what you are going through, and I will be happy to pray with you without judging your situation. Please be sure to leave your phone number in any communication, so that I can call to set up an appointment time for us to counsel and pray together.

 

 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of loves. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee. Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad. Psa 45:1-8

 

          The anointing and ministry of the king is symbolic of Christ Jesus on the earth. One that walks in this ministry will demonstrate over and over again how Jesus would handle a situation. In order to walk in this ministry, the king must be led by the Spirit of the Lord on a daily basis. This is not a job that a mere man or woman can do and do well without the Lord’s daily guidance.

           

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. Luk 4:18-19

 

          When Jesus walked the earth as a man, even He required the daily guidance and anointing of the Spirit of the Lord in order to minister as a king. We are certainly not as well prepared for this job as He was. Therefore, we have got to be completely out of our minds if we try to fulfill this calling without hearing the voice of the Lord on a daily basis.

 

Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee. Psa 45:3-5

 

We’ve already discussed how anyone that claims the mantle of the king must first be well trained in warfare. After receiving the mantle, the call to warfare becomes more apparent than ever. As kings in the kingdom of God, we are expected to not only engage in warfare as led by the Holy Spirit, we are expected to have the wisdom to know how to pray to win the engagement. When we do not have the wisdom, God expects us to be sensitive enough to His voice to follow His instructions. God does not lose a battle, regardless of whether it is in the physical or spiritual realm. As kings representing the kingdom of God, we are expected to walk in His victorious nature.

 

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; Eph 6:10-18

 

          As God’s representatives on the earth, we must always be prepared for whatever the enemy throws against us. Part of that preparation means that we are to always have on the whole armor of God. And that includes the spear of the Spirit of God.

 

Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in the house of God. And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about. Then they brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king. 2Ch 23:9-11

 

And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. Isa 2:4

 

Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong. Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD. Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about. Joe 3:9-12

 

It is the spear that differentiates the common warrior from the king. With the Spear of the Lord comes the authority to bring the judgments of the Lord to pass on the earth. With the spear comes the ability to strike down an enemy before he can even reach you. And it is the spear which allows the king to strike from horseback, a place of power and military might. And he is able to do so without getting down in the mud with the enemy.

Because our churches are not teaching the spear of the Lord along with the rest of the armor and weapons that God gives us, we see very few kings emerging in our time. It is the spear that is the symbol of kingly authority. It is the spear that gives us the right to pass godly judgment on the works of the enemy in our world. Because we are not equipping our people with the knowledge that such a weapon is available in the Spirit, we are not able to produce those that would wield it for the kingdom. Without his spear, a king is just another common warrior.

It is also the spear which brings in the harvest. A pruning hook was used to cut down fruit from the highest branches, as well as to trim back branches that needed to be cut off. As kings, God expects us to prune those that we are pouring into. We cannot do so without our spear. And we will never realize the full harvest without our spear. We literally just leave it to rot on the tree.

 

He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation. Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth. My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him. His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven. Psa 89:26-29

 

And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals. 2Sa 6:5

 

Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power. Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness. Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD. Ps 150

 

          The ministry of the king, in addition to the other requirements placed on it by God, is expected to be a position of prostration before the throne of God. One thing that a newly anointed king will learn as a part of the training process, is the necessity for humility before the Lord. Another lesson that the Holy Spirit will teach a newly anointed king is the need for a life of worship.

          Without humility before the Lord and a lifestyle of worship, a king will completely unable to carry out the duties of the office. A king will find himself in many places that he will only have the authority to get through if he is leading a life of humble worship to the King of Kings. As soon as the king changes this lifestyle of humble worship to the Lord, problems are sure to begin to manifest that will bring him to a place of crisis. The only way to resolve these issues is to once again resume the position of humble worship before the throne of God.

          If we maintain a lifestyle of humility and worship, the Lord will bless us and our ministry, and we will find ourselves reproducing other kings in both our natural and spiritual children.

 

Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad. Psa 45:7-8

 

A Psalm of David, Maschil. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile. When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long. For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah. I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah. For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him. Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee. Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about. Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

Psa 32:1-11

 

          Another requirement to walk as a king in Christ Jesus is that we must maintain a transparent lifestyle before Him. We must immediately deal with issues as they arise. That means when we transgress against the Lord, we must confess our sin, not keep quiet and hope that it just goes away.

          While all of our sins were forgiven when Jesus died on the cross for us, we can still open the door for the enemy to start working in our lives through the commission of sinful acts. When we commit a sinful act, we need to confess it immediately for what it is, and thereby close that doorway into our life.

          In order to walk in the calling of the king, we must walk in purity of heart. In order to walk in purity, we must lead a sinless life as much as it is possible. When we mess up, we need to deal with it so as not to invite the enemy to enter our lives and destroy us and our ministry. Remember that if we are covenant with anything else, especially a sin covenant, we cannot be in full covenant with God. God absolutely requires the fullness of the covenant relationship for those that minister in the office of the king.

 

Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth. My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him. Psa 89:27-28

 

          Another benefit to walking in the ministry of the king, is that the kings in Christ Jesus are the only ones that truly realize the full covenant son relationship with the Father. Most all of us have some form of revelation that we are sons in the kingdom. The king, however will realize the full potential of that son relationship.

          Once we take our place at the right hand of Jesus as a king in the kingdom, we begin to get the full revelation of what it means to be seated in heavenly places as the Body of Christ. By assuming this position, we begin to develop the full understanding of just what God has given us, and how we are to use the authority at our disposal. It is only the kings in the kingdom that receive this full revelation. We must have an understanding of what it means to be the son of the king before we can realize the fullness of our relationship with our heavenly Father.

          This also means that the kings are the only ones that fully realize what it means to walk as a covenant son of the Father. It is only by assuming the position and authority of the king’s position that this revelation is completely unveiled. This is a revelation that we all have in bits and pieces, but a minister that has walked in the position of a king for a while will receive the full revelation.

These are usually the ministers preaching and teaching revelations that the average Christian is unable to completely absorb because they are not at the place where they can completely walk in it. That’s alright, because the ministry of the king reproduces other kings. If you come into contact with a minister walking in the fullness of this ministry, try to get a hold of every one of his teachings. It is through the teaching of the king that new kings are raised up.

 

I hope that his article has helped to clear up some misconceptions about what it means to be a king in Christ Jesus. We hear the phrase “kings and priests” a lot in the Church, but I’ve never heard it explained in depth. For those of you that are interested in the full teaching of this subject, be sure to read “Consecration of the Prophet, Priest and King Part 1 – the Prophet,” and to be on the lookout for “Consecration of the Prophet, Priest and King Part 3 – The Anointing and Consecration of the Priest,” soon to be posted! And if this article blessed you, please give it a “G+1” so I know that it has ministered to you! Blessings everyone!
