Restored!Beispiel

Seated In The Heavenly Realms

Far too often Christians see themselves as downtrodden victims of the circumstances and pressures of life, but according to this powerful promise we have been raised up with Christ and seated in a place of victory and authority. Just as Christ has ascended to the right hand of the Father, in Christ, we too have been raised up.

As believers we should never see ourselves as helpless, powerless victims. We are far from helpless. God is our help. We are not powerless. The power of the Holy Spirit dwells within us and we are more than conquerors in through Christ and we can do all things through him. Remember this: none of this is of our own merit; it all comes to us through God’s grace. He is the one who has “raised us up and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms.” Our job is to receive what God has promised and then live accordingly.

Today, thank God for placing you in a position of authority and victory. Ask God to give you greater understanding of who you are in Christ.

PRAYER

Father, I thank you for the incredible blessing of being your child. I am blessed. I am no longer a victim of life’s circumstances, but I am an overcomer in Christ. You have given me spiritual authority and seated me with Jesus in the heavenly realms. Wow. Teach me more about what this all means and help me to live up to this amazing truth as you continue to bring about restoration in my life.
