Glory to God! Let me talk straight to you today, brother and sister. If you’ve been baptized in water in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, something powerful took place. You didn’t just get wet. You were planted into Christ. And when you went down into that water and came up again, you came up sharing in His very offices. You became a priest. You became a prophet. You became a king.

That’s not religious talk. That’s Bible truth. And it’s time the Body of Christ started walking in it like we believe it.

You Were Grafted Into the Anointed One

When you were baptized, you were baptized into Christ. The Word says, “For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ” (Galatians 3:27, NKJV). You put Him on. You were joined to the One the Father anointed as Priest, Prophet, and King. And whatever is true of the Head is true of the members of His Body.

Jesus is the Great High Priest (Hebrews 4:14).
Jesus is the Prophet like unto Moses (Acts 3:22).
Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords (Revelation 19:16).

And because you are in Him, those offices are yours by inheritance.

Look at What the Word Says About You

God told Israel, “And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (Exodus 19:6, NKJV). That was the promise. But in Christ, it has come to full manifestation for every born-again, water-baptized believer.

Peter picked it up under the Holy Ghost and declared it over you:
“You also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ… 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” (1 Peter 2:5, 9, NKJV).

John saw it in the Revelation:
“To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father…” (Revelation 1:5-6, NKJV).
And again: “And have made us kings and priests to our God; and we shall reign on the earth” (Revelation 5:10, NKJV).

That’s you. Washed. Made. Kings and priests.

What Does It Mean to Walk in These Offices?

As a priest, you offer spiritual sacrifices.
Romans 12:1 says, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.” Your life, your praise, your giving, your obedience—those are sacrifices that rise up as a sweet-smelling aroma through Jesus. You don’t need a temple in Jerusalem. You are the temple, and you minister before the Lord every day.

As a prophet, you speak for God and declare His Word.
You hear what the Spirit is saying and you open your mouth. You proclaim His praises. You stand in the gap. You call those things that be not as though they were. The same Spirit that anointed the prophets of old dwells in you. You are His mouthpiece in the earth.

As a king, you reign.
Not by lording it over people, but by taking dominion over the works of the devil, over sin, over lack, over sickness, and over every circumstance that tries to rise up against the Word of God in your life. Jesus said the kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship, but it shall not be so among you. The greatest among you shall be servant of all (Matthew 20:25-28). Real kingdom authority is released through serving and through enforcing the victory Jesus already won.

This Is Your Birthright

Water baptism was your public identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. You died with Him. You were raised with Him. And you came up sharing in His anointing and His authority. The Holy Ghost has sealed it. Now it’s time to live it.

Stop talking like a beggar when the Word calls you a king.
Stop living like an orphan when you’ve been made a priest unto God.
Stop staying silent when you’ve been commissioned as a prophet to declare His Word.

Rise up, child of God. You are a priest. You are a prophet. You are a king. Walk in it. Speak it. Enforce it. And watch the glory of God show up in your life.

Amen.
