But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
Those of us who embrace Jesus the Christ as their Lord and King should thank God every day for His Son Jesus becoming the sacrificial Lamb for all mankind. Because of Jesus' sacrifice we have become royalty. By the way, we should embrace our Jewish brothers and sisters, because it is through faith in His Son that we have become citizens of the Kingdom and children of the most high God. For He is King and Lord.
I cannot state often enough, we as Kingdom citizens must learn to stay focused on the Word of God. We must learn to persevere, to stay focused on His promise. Ambassador Paul stated it this way:
Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
I Peter 2:9-10 Hebrews 12:1-2
