This Is What Happens When You Forget You’re Royalty

Most people don’t lose their power overnight—they slowly forget who they are. This message reveals what happens when identity is stolen… and how it gets restored. Most people don’t lose their power in a dramatic moment. They adapt. They adjust. They survive. And over time, they forget who they were always meant to be. In this message, Eric Thomas exposes what happens when people forget they’re royalty—how identity gets robbed quietly, how survival replaces authority, and why remembering who you are changes everything. This isn’t about hype. It’s about identity, responsibility, and living from who God intended you to be—not beneath it. If you’ve ever felt like you’re living below your potential, shrinking to fit environments, or settling for less than what you know you’re capable of… this message is for you.
