Taking Your Place
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"If
ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where
Christ sits on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things
above, not on things on the earth" (Col. 3:1-2).
The elevation of the believer to be seated with Christ at the right hand
of the Father took place potentially at the resurrection (Eph. 2:5-6).
Meditate on this passage until it becomes real to you.
Remember, every heavenly blessing is yours (Eph. 1:3).
But you have to take your place there to enjoy them. The believer whose
eyes have been opened to his throne rights in Christ may:
(1) Accept his seat, and
(2) Begin to exercise the spiritual authority that seating confers on
him.
The Devil bitterly resents our entrance into his domain. He has been
used to exercising authority and ruling over someone's life, so he will
concentrate his forces against us when we come into these mighty truths.
And no truth encounters such opposition as the truth of the authority of
the believer!
The only place of safety is to be seated with Christ in heavenly places,
far above all principality, power, might, and dominion.
If
the believer abides steadfastly, by faith, in this place, he cannot be
touched by the enemy. So take your seat in heavenly places and keep it!
Confession: I set my affection on heavenly facts. I keep myself
mindful that I am seated with Christ in heavenly places far above the
enemy!
