Live the High Life

Even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection. —Romans 6:4–5

This new person who has been raised and seated has been made in the likeness of Jesus. Not the Jesus who walked the earth before the cross, but the resurrected Lord and Savior. You were created after God in righteousness and true holiness (Ephesians 4:24), you have become one spirit with God (1 Corinthians 6:17), and “as he is, so are [you] in this world” (1 John 4:17). You are as He is right here in this world. You are not only like Him in spiritual makeup or nature, but you are like Him in spiritual position. The same authority He has is the authority you have. The same power He has is the same power you have. The same position He has—“far above”—is the same position you have. You have been raised by the glory of the Father, in the likeness of Christ, to live in a fresh, new life! Here is where weakness is a thing of the past. Inability is no longer a problem. Little problems and circumstances that held you back before must now bow to your rights and authority in God. If you don’t like your life—change it. Don’t like your marriage? Change it! Don’t like your health or finances? Change them! Get a heavenly perspective on who you are and where you are seated. Look at things from a position of a “far above” new creation! Don’t come down and participate in small thinking and small talking! Sit down once and for all at the right hand of the Father and act like a far-above, resurrected, likeness-of-Christ person. Your new walk is on top of everything that used to hold you back! You are far above!

How’s the View?

And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. —Ephesians 2:6

You have learned that when Jesus was crucified, your old man was crucified; when Jesus died, your old man died; and when Jesus was buried, your old man was buried. You are no longer the same person you used to be. The old man has passed away, and you must associate and identify with his death. But now, in this verse, you discover that the burial of the old man was not the end; there was also a raising up of a new you, a new spiritual species of being, when Christ was raised from the dead. When He was raised, you were raised, and when He was seated at the right hand of the Father, you were seated at the right hand of the Father. Everything that Jesus did, He did for mankind—He did for you! His life, death, and resurrection were to benefit fallen mankind, to bring us out of the bo***ge and up from under the curse that Adam had placed on us. God did not need the cross, the angels did not need it, but mankind had to be killed and then reborn spiritually into a place of dominion and rulership. God’s original plan of making us in His image and likeness has never changed. His plan of man having authority and dominion has never changed. It was man who sinned and fell out of God’s perfect will for him. So God sent Jesus to die, to be buried—but also to be raised and seated—so you could be raised and seated with Him!
