Ephesians 2:5-6 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (6) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
ARE YOU SITTING IN HEAVENLY PLACES
Sometimes we realize that we are sitting in the wrong place and the best thing to do is to just get up and move. Sometimes my wife and I will stop by McDonald's for breakfast or sometimes just coffee. In Kosciusko in the morning you had better beat the crowd or you won't get a good seat. I really don't like it when we have to sit on the East side of the building by the big windows and the sun comes in and nearly blinds you. If another table opens up that is not in the bright sunlight we will get up and move to a better seat. The same is true in many instances. Making the whole experience better can just involve getting up and moving.
Maybe you are sitting in a worldly place and things aren't exactly going the way you would prefer. Maybe you look at the person with a stronger prayer life or deeper devotional life and think, I would like to be where they are.
God intended His best for you. He wants you to have His richest blessings, His greatest gifts, the strongest faith, the sweetest fellowship. Are you content to sit where you are or would you rather get up and move so that you might sit in Heavenly places and enjoy His blessings.
I want to discuss some Heavenly Places in the next few devotionals. I hope you will receive a blessing from this study.
Please feel free to contact me by email at
shilohkosciusko@gmail.com with questions, comments or even suggestions for further devotional studies.
If you know of someone new to the Kosciusko area and would like for our church to visit them please let us know. Our prayers are that this devotional ministry will be an outreach to bring people into a closer relationship with Jesus. I do appreciate you taking the time to read these devotionals and please keep us in your prayers.
