There Is A Queen In You

I don't know why I'm writing this blogpost, but I believe this will touch a woman's heart, mind, soul & spirit. Back around 2009, there was a popular song by Donald Lawrence called "There Is A King In You," and it's dedicated to those who have struggled in life no matter what the situation. You can say that the song inspired this blogpost and now, I would like to target this post to the ladies because all of you need to know that there is a Queen in you. But first, let me give you a few definitions of the word "Queen."

1. the female ruler of an independent state, especially one who inherits the position by right of birth.

2. (Before I give this definition, if you have heard me talk about chess and my love for playing it, this confirms what I have said about the power of a woman, especially in a relationship) - the most powerful chess piece that each player has, able to move any number of unobstructed squares in any direction along a rank, file, or diagonal on which it stands.

3. A Biblical Queen using Sheba from 1 Kings 10 as an example - is a woman who knows her worth.

So what do I want to share with you? A few years back (in 2012) I did a blog entitled the attack on women. You see, when the devil tempted Eve, his sole purpose was to get her tied to him and her focus off of her husband as well as God. As a result, she started guessing her better judgment, she settled for temporary (like settling for coach instead of first-class). I know there are many women who can relate to this scenario to include being tied to men who aren't even the same faith and to destroy the true Queen that she's supposed to be and live. It's sad to see Queens destroy each other and tear each other down and it's even worse when men manipulate them forgetting that he's nothing without her (just like in chess). But this is simply an attack on a spiritual level. Because Christ the true King was born via a woman and would crush the devil's head, he (the devil) hates women and will do anything to destroy her true Queenship through doubt, situations such as rape, being abused sexually, physically, emotionally, financially and the list goes on. Romans 5:17 says For if because of one man’s trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [God’s] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). So if we're to reign, then we have to shame the devil! If we reign, one way to shame the devil is not dropping our pants and engaging in pre-marital sex because that's below the level of a king and a queen.

We as brothers and sisters in Christ need to stop writing off those who are knocked down. We're siding with the devil when we do that and those knocked down who are wounded need us to build them up via prayer, fasting, intercession and with love AND the authority of Christ. Ladies, I stand with you as a friend and a brother in Christ and know that you are a Queen and I see you as God sees you. A woman who is made in God's image. There is truly a Queen in You! Believe it, say it, and walk in it by faith, even as you are healing. Don't give up on your healing. You're not out for the count (even though many believers think you are), I will never count you out because God doesn't see you out for the count. So, for every woman reading this, I declare this over you (and I encourage you to declare this over yourself), there is a Queen in you.

Blessings,
