Just A Thought – August 20
August 20, 2018Just A Thought – August 21
August 21, 2018“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3 NIV2011). Blessed or all praise be to God the Father who has made all blessings to us possible through Jesus. We are in the heavenly places right now. “And raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:6 NASB).
We sit in the heavenly places, so all blessings are ours now. This is true because our identity is “in Christ.” The heavenly realm is where Jesus sits. “ Which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places” (Ephesians 1:20 NASB). Our position is in Christ. We sit spiritually in the heavenly place so all blessings are ours. The blessings aren’t limited. We need to appropriate them and allow them to manifest in us. We sit in the blessing place.
