The blood of Jesus has made his people victorious in life. You are not just some victim of circumstances. You have something to say about the circumstances in your life. By the blood of Jesus you can reign in life by the abundance of grace that came by Jesus Christ. By the blood of Jesus we have been made kings and priests. So, according to Deuteronomy 21:5 at the word of the priest every controversy shall be settled. Which means you may be in a unfavorable situation, but you don't have to let it dictate to you what will be. But, you have to be careful not to let your words just agree with the situations in life, but line your words with God's and establish his word in your life. The word also says by the blood of Jesus we were raised and made to sit with Jesus in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 2:6). Which means just as God raised him up and put all things under his feet they are also under us through Jesus (Ephesians 1:22). God put you in a position of authority and he wants you to use it. And you use that authority by the words of your mouth. That's why you line your words with God's word and not the circumstances because you are the priest with the authority of Jesus. And as a priest you have been authorized to bless in the name of the Lord (Deuteronomy 21:5). So, if you are in a tight situation speak words of life and speak blessings and not curses. In 1Peter 3:10 it says, if you want to see good keep your mouth from speaking evil. That's why you don't just line your words up with the circumstances, but with the word of God because that is what you desire to see. The blood of Jesus has put you over the circumstances of life so don't let them rule you exercise your authority in the name of Jesus.
