You Can't Take My Crown

Many who read, and study the scriptures know that there are Crowns awaiting us from our Father in Heaven, we also know from the word of God there are different crowns, the crown of life, and the crown of glory just to name a couple.
I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who has gone through some storms in life, and she was explaining to me that she was having a difficult time with her step mother, as she has been caring for her father who is ill and up in the ages. Unfortunately, we had to cut our conversation short, with both of us having a busy schedule that day, although as I went through the day, the story of Cinderella, and her step mother came to mind, and how in the end Cinderella received the crown.
A few days later after the conversation that I had with my friend the words “you can’t take my crown” came to me, and I knew the Lord was speaking to me in this situation.
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. James 1:12 NIV
Everyone has to deal with family dynamics, although for some it becomes painful when dealing with family members who lie or misuse us. There is a scripture that tells us more about this issue in Matthew 10:36.
However, I have good news they “can’t take my crown” they may slam my name, they may try to distress me, they may even persecute me, but I say in the name of the Lord almighty, "devil you can’t take my crown”
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 KJV
I am wearing my crown here on earth, it sits on my head I may not see it, you may not see it, but I am wearing it. I am going to get through this life with the crown of life, and I am going to go through this life victorious though there are troubles I will stand on the word that declares “my kingdom come my will be done on earth as it is in heaven” it is not just for heaven it is here for us now. I want you to know you are His King David you are His Cinderella now!
The tide is going to turn, and you will never be the same again, He will do what he has promised to do, He will vindicate His people and set them in a high place for his glory, “get ready” you have been crowned by the Lord of all, they can’t take your crown, because He holds your crown, you’re the head not the tail, and His promises are yes and amen!
Then the LORD said: "I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you. Exodus 34:10
After He has accomplished His will and purpose through you here on earth as it is in heaven, yet again He will give you a crown.
In the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing. 2 Timothy 4:8 AMSB
