Put Your Feet Up
Feb 23, 2022
Today’s Scripture
Ephesians 2:6, NLTFor 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.
Today’s Word
In Psalm 110:1, God said that He would make the enemies of Christ His footstool. It’s a picture of the rest of faith we can have, because we are joined to Christ and seated with him in the heavenly places. God used “footstools” to remind us to stay at rest. When we face difficulties, things we don’t see coming, things we don’t understand, the first thing we should do is put our feet up. We need to come back to that place of peace. You have to do it by faith. Every thought will tell you why you’ll never get well, how your family will never be restored, and why your dream will never come to pass. That’s the enemy trying to deceive you into standing up. He knows that when you’re seated in peace and trusting God, all the forces of darkness cannot stop you. What may have been meant for your harm becomes your footstool. Instead of being a stumbling block, it’s going to be a stepping stone to take you to the next level.
Prayer for Today
Father, thank You that I am united with Jesus and seated with Him today. Thank You that Jesus has defeated every enemy and made them a footstool that I can rest my feet upon. I declare that I am going to stay seated in Your grace and live from this place of peace and rest. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
