Made to Reign: Using (And Losing) Your Kingly Authority Loren Vangalder

God is calling you. He has a purpose for your life. You were made to reign. He wants you to use his authority for the good of your family and community. Made to Reign follows the life of King Saul, Israel?s first king, in the book of I Samuel. God called him, equipped him, and gave him authority to reign, and Saul failed miserably. As you follow Saul?s victories and defeats in the many battles of his life, you?ll learn how to use your kingly authority ? and not lose it, as Saul did. This is a book by a man, about men, and for men. As a federal prison chaplain for twenty-one he walked with hundreds of men on the journey to mature and fulfilling manhood. You?re not alone! Join him, Saul, and countless other men who have wrestled with the same issues you struggle with. There?s no better guidebook, no better story, than the Word of God. God commanded Adam: ?Rule, have dominion, over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground?. He?s had a hard time finding men who will faithfully exercise his authority on this earth. It took his own Son to perfectly establish his Kingdom, and right now he?s preparing many sons to reign with him through eternity: They will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years. And they will reign for ever and ever. (Revelation 20:6, 22:5) Are you ready to reign?
