Wisdom For The Day Devotional 30 March 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Risen And Seated With Christ

TOPIC: Risen And Seated With Christ (TREM Devotional 30 March 2024)

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.” Colossians 3:1 (KJV)

MESSAGE:

In the mind of justice, when Jesus died on the Cross, the whole world died with Him because He died for all men. However, Christianity didn’t start from His death but from His resurrection. When God raised Him from the dead, you were raised together with Him, and you became a new creation, alive to God. This is the birth of the Church. His Resurrection gave birth to the New Creation, which cannot be held down by sin, death, or even grave because of what Jesus did for us. When He died, He died as us; when He rose, He rose as us. Today, we have a new life. Hallelujah!!!

The new creation is the fruit of His redemption (Romans 8:23). You have been brought out of death—spiritual death—into life! You came alive with Christ, with His resurrection life. Knowing that you’ve been raised together with Christ and seated with Him in the heavenly realms, the Bible says you should seek those things which are above. Have the consciousness of one who’s seated together with Christ in the place of dominion, glory, and power. It’s a place where there’s no darkness, sickness, defeat, and pain, a place of absolute mastery and authority.

The Bible says Jesus is seated at the right hand of God (the right hand of power and dominion). This means He has authority over all creation and heaven and earth. But guess what? God has lifted us up into glory along with Christ. We sit with Him in the heavenly realms of power, dominion, and majesty (Ephesians 2:6). We occupy the same position of authority, with the power of attorney to act in His stead. What a blessed reality to be joint heirs with Christ! That is why I encouraged you yesterday to read the entire account and meditate on it so you can become one with this truth.

As you celebrate in this season, live in the consciousness that you have been made new and walk in that reality.

Daily Confession

God is my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore I will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the seas. For the Lord of host is with me and the God of Jacob is my refuge. The Lord will help me at that right early. I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. For God has not given me the spirit of fear but He has given me the Spirit of love, power and sound mind. (Psalm 46:1-2,5,7, Ephesians 6:10; 2 Tim 1:7)

Every day and in every way I am getting better: spiritually, physically, financially, mentally, morally, and in all my endeavours.

I am called for a purpose; I will fulfill this purpose and I will arrive at God’s ordained destiny for my life. Nothing will cut me short. I will make a formidable impact in my world for the Kingdom. Therefore, I declare that I am a person of integrity, I am spiritually fervent, and I am accountable in all I do because I’ve been raised to live the Kingdom Life here on earth.

It is my day of Great and Mighty Things!
