If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things, which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection in thing above, not on thing on the earth.
Colossians 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). Mediate on this passage until it becomes real to you. Remember, every heavenly blessing is your (Eph. 1:3). But you have to take your place there to enjoy them. The believer whose eye have been opened to his throne right 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 nighty 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, night, 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 used it. His promises is yes and Amen.
