TOPIC: HEAVENLY PLACES IV
TEXT: EPHESIANS 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. KJV
Yesterday we learned of the exceeding greatness of God's power towards the believer and the import of this power as the same power that God dispensed when he raised Christ from the dead. But this isn't all, we also began to see that when Christ was raised, He was raised to sit at God's own right hand in heavenly places which is far above all powers and principalities. Let's read Ephesians 1:20-23 again, it says;
which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places , far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: and hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. KJV
Christ was raised far above all principalities, and power, and might , and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. And remember, you were raised together with him and have been made to sit with him in heavenly places. Therefore, as Christ is far above, you are in Him, far above all name that is named. Not only in this world but in that which is to come.
This position is also a very strong and formidable part of the spiritual blessings we received in heavenly places in Christ. And just as Ephesians 6:12 told us that we wrestle not against flesh and blood; it is of a truth that the power we contend with are the very power we have been made far above over. So, we contend from the place of victory and become strong in the Lord and in the power of his might, putting on the whole armour of God.
So, we make decree and speak from a vantage position knowing that Christ who is the head and we his body the fullness of him, stands in the same place and position with Him, and have been made to Lord over all that he is Lord over in spiritual realms. As He is the saviour and Lord of his body, whom we are.
There is no room for fear nor lack of power. Know your right and position and speak as one who has authority in the name of Jesus, because spiritually you have been blessed with the name but physically you need to unleash the power of that name over every other name, principalities and dominion. Fight in and with the name Jesus! Rule with it!
PRAYER
In the name of Jesus, every knee bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord therefore, I command all powers working contrary to God's will in all phases and dimensions of my life to fizzle out in Jesus name. Jesus is my saviour and Lord, thus He alone is allowed to rule and reign in Jesus name. Amen
