Knowing Your Position

Even though the scriptures tells us that we wrestle (Ephesians 6:12), it is very important that we know from where we are wrestling from. While Ephesians 1:20-21, informs that Christ is set at the right hand of God in the heavenly places, far above all principality, and power and might, and dominion, and every name that is named. Ephesians 2:6 much more informs the believer that we have been raised with Christ and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

This shows that -

  1. We have a height advantage, that even though we wrestle yet we are wrestling from a position that the enemy can't reach. This understanding is very important for the believer in every circumstance of life.
  2. Christ Jesus is not just a person but a place.... we are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

Engaging in warfare with this knowledge of our position in Christ, shifts the focus from what we can do in ourselves but rather what we can achieve in Christ. In reality, we are not fighting alone, we are in CHRIST. He is very involved. Selah
