Ephesian 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit
together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
When Joseph was thrown into prison, his life was thought to be
over. How could anyone escape an Egyptian prison? But then, in one day,
according to God's perfect timing, he was instantly promoted to reign over
all Egypt with only the Pharoah, ("god on earth") as his Lord. Could there
be a transformation more sudden, astounding and dramatic! So it was for
Yeshua (Jesus) as He fulfilled the identity of Mashiach ben Yosef,
suffering to death for our sins, but then,
on one
day, supernaturally resurrected and now seated at the right
hand of the Father (God in Heaven). Such an amazing parallel!
Now we need to come fully to this realization: that the moment we
came to faith in Yeshua, the Father instantly and supernaturally delivered
us from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of the Son He loves.
In one moment we were regenerated as sons and
daughters of the Most High and spiritually seated with Him in heavenly
places. Even as we remain in our flesh awaiting our incorruptible bodies,
our Spirit has been born into a Holy Family and a Royal Priesthood.
So, we are called to be overcomers; to war and to win, to
exercise authority in Yeshua's name...
But are you still "in the pit"? Then
please take this realization to heart: the resurrection life of Yeshua
remains within you, enabling you to endure. And that too, is a kind of
victory. As you submit to His discipline in faith, your day will come to
exercise greater authority in His Name, just as it did for Joseph. He
patiently endured his trial of faith, and was raised up; so you also can,
through Yeshua's indwelling Presence, arrive at a new
day of release and victory...maybe tomorrow, maybe even
today! Amen. (George, Baht Rivka, Elianna & Obadiah)
