The Elevated Life

 Ephesians 2:4-6

The heavenly realms is the realm where the believer, the true follower of Jesus Christ is positioned in Christ Jesus.

Jesus Christ is highly placed, and we (sons of God) are positioned in Him.

Spiritually, sons of God are highly placed.

We are placed far above the principalities, powers, rulers of this world, elemental spirits, challenges, setbacks, evil, and bewitchment found in this world.

Ephesians 1:19-22

What God has done in His sons (believers/born again people) is a work of power!

By the mighty power of God we (sons of God) are spiritually elevated!

This elevation is a result of God's love and grace towards us.

This spiritual positioning of the saints is the outcome of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The elevated life is the life the believer is called to, as a result of Jesus's resurrection from the dead.

Followers of Jesus Christ, sons of God, are not ordinary people. They are sons of God after all.

John 1:12,13

A benefit of being aware of our elevated position is that it enhances our spiritual authority.

John 3:31

Our elevated, resurrected state ensures we overcome all our enemies and adversaries.

Psalm 110:1

Our elevated life ensures we truly live and not die, because we are in Christ.

John 11:25

The elevated life is a resurrected life!

Our elevated state is seen and experienced as a tangible reality when Jesus appears- the rapture/second coming.

We will be caught up with Him, above this world.

1 Thessalonians 4:16,17

Our elevated life means we are above the nonsense Satan is doing in this earth.

1 John 5:19

The elevated life gives us elevated faith which produces victory.

1 John 5:4

Our elevated position in Christ means we are at the right hand side of the Father.

Mark 16:19

The right hand side of God the Father is the side of favor, good will, commendation, power, help, salvation, deliverance, and blessing.

It is the side of the Spirit.

Psalm 48:10

Matthew 25:34

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
