Life will continue to be a struggle if you don´t know who you are; knowing your true identity positions you for success. So many people are in the wrong position because of a lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). Some problems just need a little mental adjustment to be resolved, and if you don´t do it quickly, Satan will continue to prey on your ignorance, but that will not be you, in Jesus' name.
John 3:31 (He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all).
Colossians 3:1 (If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory).
Above only mindset means that you know your position in Christ, that you are dead and the life you are living now is the life of Christ in you. It means that you know that you are ordained to win all your battles and that whatever will hurt you has to pass through Christ to get to you. It means that you know that you are an ambassador of Christ. you are a heavenly citizen and have the best economy which is good for any kind of investment. It means that you know and believe that what happens to others cannot happen to you,
In the battle of life, your position will determine your victory and there is no greater position than to be on top. Redemption has given you and me an advantage over our adversaries; You can view their plan before executing and you have the best defense and offense at your beck and call, so you can do on to them before they do unto you. Why would you permit them to disrupt your peace when you can stop them before they even think of hurting you? You are God's army, and you cannot be defeated. Setting our affection on things on the earth is a waste of time and resources, and only those who set their affection on things above are positioned to win the battle of life. If you speak like them you cannot command a higher result than them and you cannot defeat them in any battles. Speaking earthly is self-defiliating which is very dangerous. As a heavenly citizen we have our identity and our language is part of that identity that separates us from earthly personalities. Once at the top is not always on top, there are so many things that can shift your positioning without knowing and that is why we need to be very careful and be highly sensitive in the spirit. We need to know that we are hidden in Christ; that he is holy, and that any form of unrighteous behaviour will separate us from him. The enemy will not spare us if we are no longer in Christ, so, it is a bad position to be in. We need to surrender ourselves as a living sacrifice by disregarding everything called earthly. To maintain our position on the top we need to kill the flesh and keep feeding our spirit to keep him alive and healthy.
Colossians 3:3 (For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. 5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience):
Your mansion is to be built in a place where you are going to be spending most of your time and that is exactly what Jesus Christ advises us to do. We are all here on earth for an assignment of which when we are done we will go back home to be with our Father. So, putting our affection on the things we see around us here is not profitable.
Matthew 6:19 (Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also).
Jesus Christ promises to prepare a mansion for us in heaven but many have not laid up treasure for their mansion; their account in heaven is empty (John 14:2-3). The mansion is not for free; the proceeds from our work here on earth will be used to pay for the kind of mansion we desire for our rest. Friends, I have good news for you. If you have not secured a portion in heaven with Christ quickly pray this salvation prayer below and start investing now.
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
NENE ISAH,
