“And He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together [giving us joint seating with Him] in the Heavenly Sphere [by virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One).” [AMP]
Scripture tells us that when we accept and receive Jesus Christ as our personal Saviour, we in Him and He in us, we are seated together with Him in our Father’s House – that’s why Jesus tells us that as His followers, even though we live in this world we do not belong to this world (see John 17:14, 16). Spiritually, we are in the Heavenly realm, the House of God.

| Bethel means House of God |
As a Believer, your position is in Jesus, so that means that you are already in the House – the Heavenly places found in Him.
You must understand that in Jesus you were chosen before the foundations of the world were even laid. God picked you out to be His own child through Jesus Christ because it was His intention and His pleasure for you to be a part of His family, to be a part of His divine plan long before He spoke Creation into existence (see Ephesians 1:4, 5, 11).
Knowing this Truth, let today be the beginning of a new phase in your life – a new day – in the One Who, in love, willingly sacrificed His life for yours, to provide you with the opportunity to be a part of His household, ushered in through the Blood that Jesus shed on the cross, accepted and approved by God.
