When a king has a son, he calls his son a prince, which means first. The son is first in line to be king when his father dies. But, if a king wants his son to be king while the king is still alive, the king must take his son out of his domain or territory and place his son in a foreign territory. The father can now make his son king over the foreign territory. Because the father has now established another king, this makes the father, King of Kings. With this said, God is King and we are His children, created in His likeness and image. Because God, our Father and King will never die, if we stayed with Him, in heaven, we could never reign as kings. So, God took us out of His territory, which is Heaven, and placed us in a foreign territory, which is the earth. Then He tells us to be fruitful, multiply and take dominion over the earth. Because our Father established us as kings of the earth, this makes Him King of Kings and Lord of Lords! Even when Jesus walked the earth, He was referred to as "King" because He was not in the Father's territory. But, when He was crucified, died, and then rose from the dead and returned back to the right hand of the Father, in heaven, He was referred to as the "Prince" of peace. Why? When a king returns home to his fathers territory, he is no longer a king, he becomes a prince again. There can only be one king in a domain.As police officers, who are the sons and daughters of a King, from a foreign territory, we bring Kingdom authority into the world of law enforcement. It is an honor to wear the badge of authority, but, it is a greater honor to wear the crown of a king.

Great Radio Blogcast. We are called to be sterwards of everything God had provided for us. It's funny to watch and see how many people try to accumilate so much in this life when in the end it wont matter. Our materialistic world feeds this to us everyday that more is better. How we spend our time is also an act of stewardship, weather we spend it in ways that are pleasing to and serving God or in the ways of this world.
