Identity Is Vital
I cannot stress enough how vital it is going to be in 2026 to pursue our identity in Him. He is counting on you to fulfill the works He has prepared for you in advance. These works are part of His plan, not only for you but for His Kingdom framework.
If you do not pursue your identity and do not walk as a royal child of God, you cannot receive your inheritance, possess the territory He has prepared for you, or even what already belongs to you. You need spiritual identity papers. You have to know who you are and walk in it.
You Are Royalty—Walk in It
The moment Esther took that step of faith and realized "I am the queen, therefore I will present myself as such..." was the moment she received her breakthrough. And that breakthrough was not just for her, it was for her entire nation. The moment you begin to act as the royal son or daughter of God is the moment walls crumble, giants fall, and scripts are reversed.
2026 is the year you will inherit your promises, but you need to have your identification papers.
Knowing who you are and walking in your identity are two very different things. You need to embody who you are as a child and an heir. You have to look like royalty, walk like royalty, act like royalty, and talk like royalty. This includes taking care of your body, the temple of God, and your soul and spirit. It means changing habits and being intentional about what you eat, what you allow in through your gates, and what you release as well. (Photo via Unsplash)
Royals have standards in every area of their lives:
• What they eat,
• What they drink,
• What they wear,
• What they watch,
• What they listen to,
• Who they associate with.
Being royal is a great honor, but an even greater responsibility, because we represent our King and His Kingdom. We have standards to uphold.
Proper Alignments, Mindsets, and Heart Postures
You must align yourself with the right people and stop associating with those who do not recognize the true you, who do not respect or value your authority in Christ; those who are a bad influence, and those who are just plain toxic.
It's time to stop acting and speaking like a pauper, like an orphan, and live from a place of complete trust and confidence in who God says you are, and honor your Father with your life. But be careful; do not let your ego or your pride inflate. Do not confuse confidence in Christ with pride. The first will give you victory over your enemies like Mordecai. The other will make you hang from the gallows like Haman. Walk in confidence but stay at His feet.
Keys for Receiving Your Inheritance
This is the perfect formula to receive your promised land. These are the things we must pursue in 2026 and beyond:
1. Our identity in Christ, not self-improvement or striving.
2. Knowing who we are and walking in it: identity embodied, not just understood.
3. Operating as sons and daughters, not orphans; inheritance flows from sonship. (Photo via Snappy Goat)
4. Possessing what God has already promised, not begging or forcing doors.
5. Taking territory from a place of rest, obedience, and confidence, not hustle.
6. Living with royal standards in body, soul, and spirit.
7. Honoring our bodies as God's temple—being intentional with habits, health, and stewardship.
8. Guarding our gates: what we eat, watch, listen to, speak, and allow in and out.
9. Aligning with the right people who recognize, respect, and honor our God-given authority and those who live sanctified lives.
10. Letting go of orphan language and pauper thinking; no more smallness or self-negotiation.
11. Walking in authority without pride but confidence in Christ; sitting at His feet with humility.
12. Expecting resistance but not fearing it; giants confirm inheritance.
13. Representing the King and His Kingdom well, because royalty carries responsibility.
14. Receiving inheritance through alignment, not effort.
