TAKE YOUR PLACE IN CHRIST
Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses (Acts 13:38-39).
What we just read brings to mind what the Bible says in Romans 3:24, that we’ve been justified freely by grace through the redemption that’s in Jesus Christ. Through Jesus Christ we’ve received remission of sins, the complete removal of sins, and by Him we’ve been justified from all things, from which we couldn’t be justified by the Law of Moses.
That means we’ve been declared acquitted, free from all charges and accusations. Blessed be God! Jesus made it so. He took your place so that you might take His place. Taking your place in Christ is what Christianity is about. Take what He gave up for you; take the place He has given you—your new place in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”
Take your place of righteousness and express the will and nature of the Father. 2 Corinthians 8:9 says, “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” This is your new place—the place of wealth and abundance.
Also, read Ephesians 2:4-5 and see your place: “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved).” You’ve been raised up together and made to sit together in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus. This signifies a place of authority; you’re recognized in the heavenly realm as a man or woman of dominion. Blessed be God!
Prayer / Confession
Dear Father, I thank you for the place you’ve given me in Christ—a place of glory, dominion, wealth, abundance and power. I walk in the consciousness of this reality, expressing your will, nature and purpose as I reign and rule in life, exercising authority over circumstances, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
