How can knowing our position in Christ change EVERYTHING?
As we walk around in a world that tells us we are not enough, God’s Word tells us what our true worth is in Him.
As believers in Christ, we KNOW WHO WE ARE when any person or the world tell us who we aren’t measuring up to.
We were CHOSEN before the world was created, even when we feel last to be remembered.
We are FORGIVEN in Christ, and washed white as snow, even when our past tries to tell us we can’t change.
We are CLOTHED in Holy beauty instead of rags of our own self-righteousness.
We are ADOPTED AS ROYALTY instead of being left as orphans.
and last but not least,
We are SEATED WITH THE KING OF KINGS, reminding us that we are his daughters.
“For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.”
Ephesians 2:6 NLT
We are not stepdaughters, left out of the will with no inheritance.
I’m always reminded of this when people ask me if my adopted daughter is in fact MY DAUGHTER. I don’t hesitate when I respond, yes! I am proud of her, and claim her as if she were my own flesh and blood.
My daughter feels secure and has blossomed since she has realized our love is forever and her position in our family gives her full membership as our daughter.
Knowing this has made all the difference to her. It should make all the difference for us as well. Knowing we are seated with Christ, a daughter of the King of Kings should change
EVERYTHING.
It should change our outlook when all seem hopeless. Because no matter what is going on down here on earth in our lives, our God has seated us beside him, in honor because we BELONG to him. I hope this encourages you as it does me!
