ASK GOD TO OPEN YOUR EYES TO THE POSITION HE HAS PLACED YOU
Ephesians 2:6 (NIV, NLT, GNB)
And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. In our union with Christ Jesus he raised us up with him to rule with him in the heavenly world.
God wants you to know the spiritual position that He has placed you in Christ and He wants you to operate and live out every area of your life from that position. You died together with Christ and when God was raising Christ up, God also raised you up. Now, God has positioned you where Christ is in the heavenly realms. You are seated with Him in Heavenly places. Your spiritual position has changed.
This position Christ was raised to, is far in spiritual rank above principalities and powers and God has also put all things under Christ’s feet (Eph.1:20-22). If all things are under the feet of Jesus and God has positioned us with Him, then all things are also under our feet, including all principalities and powers. We have authority and dominion over them. Jesus has defeated them for us, (Col.2:15).
Based on this position we now occupy, there is no principality or power that can hinder us or hinder our prayers. It was when we were not saved that we were under their influence and manipulation, (Eph.2:1-2). Right now, we are united with Christ and positioned with Him in heavenly places far above principalities and powers. Colossians 2:10 tells us that Christ is the head of all principalities and powers. Because we are united with Him, we share in His dominion over them.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I thank you for the new spiritual position you have placed me in Christ. Open my eyes more to this reality.
