But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,~Ephesians 2:4-6
God is not dead. The grave could not hold Jesus down. He arose with all power and authority. There is is hope. Listen, God spoke to my spirit yesterday and said this. Death could not hold Him down and so because we are one with Christ, death can not hold us down either. We are not dead, but risen with Christ and seated with Him in heavenly places. He’s seated at the right hand of the Father ( Mark 16:19) above everything. “
far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.” ~Ephesians 1:21)
He sees all, knows all and He sees us. The enemy is doing his best to bury us under the weight of fear, depression and anxiety, but he will not succeed. Stick your hand up out of the ground. Stick your hand up from under the dirt of guilt and the weight of sin because the same power that is in Christ lives in us( Romans 8:11). Raise your hand up and take His hand. Choose His perspective, recognize that you, because of Christ, are above the temporal circumstances and know that death has no sting. Walk in the victory that He has Alfreda’s given You. Know that it will all be okay and cast your anxiety upon Him. Rest in Him and live.
Father, we thank You for your great love for us and the hope that You bring through your son Jesus Christ. Thank You for conquering death and the fencing the stench of its aroma. Lord, may we offer up a shout of praise as we rise up with You. In Jesus name. Amen
