Greetings!
Diplomatic Immunity
Ambassadors are regarded as honorable people in our present world. They are treated with much respect and dignity. They are specially appointed by their country to act on her behalf in a foreign land. They enjoy what is known as diplomatic immunity which makes them subject only to the law of their nation. This is what you are to the Kingdom of God.
You are the very one representing heaven on issues pertaining to the kingdom on earth. You are the expression, extension and reproduction of God. You have the right to fully represent God in all things. God actually works through you. You have the key to the kingdom. You need to pay attention to the Word and live by it in order to give a good account of yourself as one redeemed of the Lord.
Not only that, God has given you the right to allow or disallow any unfavorable circumstances as you represent Him here on earth. You have authority in His name to effect good changes. You are called His body for He expresses His love through you. You are simply His "arms and legs." Let the world today experience God through you. You've got all it takes.
DAILY SCRIPTURE READING: 1 Peter 2:1-24
Jesus has paid the price for my total freedom in life. I have been bought with a price. Therefore, I glorify God in my body and spirit. For sin, I have received righteousness. For sickness, I have good health. And for poverty, I have abundance.
Jesus knew no sin but He became sin that I might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
Jesus Himself bore my grief, sicknesses, weaknesses and distress, and carried my sorrows and pains; He was wounded for my transgressions, bruised for my iniquities, the chastening for my peace and well-being fell upon Him and with His stripes I am healed.
I know the grace of my Lord Jesus Christ. Though He was very rich yet He became very poor in order that I can be made rich through His poverty. I shall not frustrate the grace of God because I am walking in the fullness of my redemptive rights.
I stand fast in the liberty I have received as a child of God. I will not be entangled any longer in the yoke of slavery. I am totally free from every form of oppression of the evil one.
I boldly declare according to Galatians 3:13 that Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law. I am completely free from the curse of sin, sickness and poverty.
