Spiritual Royalty Today caps off our 2013 Vacation Bible School This year’s theme is “Spiritual Royalty” taken from I Peter 2:4-10 This morning we focused together upon a lesson that was built for our theme

Spiritual Royalty This morning we looked at the fact that we are royalty We also noticed that because of that fact, there are certain expectations that come along with that royalty We noticed together 3 main things from our text…

Spiritual Royalty The three things we looked at this morning were that we are to, as spiritual royalty: Grow in the Lord (v. 5) Offer spiritual sacrifices (v. 5) Proclaim Jesus (v. 9)

Spiritual Royalty There is still one more thing that we should give consideration to as sons of the King We know that royalty always finds themselves in the spotlight, or public eye Therefore we must consider our…

Spiritual Royalty 1. Conduct When you are royalty you represent something greater than yourself We represent and wear the name of Christ (Acts 4:12; 11:26) We must act in accordance to His will, to be good representatives of Him (II Cor. 5:20)

Spiritual Royalty 1. Conduct Jesus said that we are to be a light to the world (Matt. 5:14-16) Paul speaks of how a Christian should behave (Rom. 12:9-21) Our conduct is to be one of contentment (Heb. 13:5)

Spiritual Royalty 2. Speech People not only notice how we act, but they also notice how we talk and what we say It may be that perhaps more damage could be done by what we say then by how we act One reveals the truth of the other

Spiritual Royalty 2. Speech James has taught us just how powerful the tongue can be (Js. 3) We are taught to use our words for encouragement (Eph. 4:29-32; Col. 4:6) Remember our speech reflects our hearts (Matt. 12:34-37; 15:18)
