Apply What You Know as a Daily Discipline: Seated in Christ Through the Storm
Apply What You Know As A Daily Discipline…Seated In Christ Through The Storm
By Pastor Chip Woodall
We are spirit beings that live in a body and we have a soul made up our mind, will and emotions. If we are born again, the old man is gone and a new creation has come through Christ Jesus according to 2 Corinthians 5:17.
Our new creation in Christ, lines up with our new identity in Christ and the Lord has put together a way for us to discipline ourself by staying seated and not forgetting our identity. This is a reference to Ephesians 1:20-21 and 2:6. This seated position is very important because although we are living in the natural realm on planet earth, our spiritual position is seated in Christ, far above all the turmoil that can take place and try to throw us off course.
Be reminded that our identity is in Christ and our position is seated. As saved individuals, the way we react to things on earth needs to be from the seated position at
ALL times. From this position in Christ, we have all power and authority. So, respond that way! Do not allow the enemy to get you out of your seat, responding like a crazy person without any power or authority.
Last Saturday Night, I was driving on a back road near Baltic, Ohio. It was nearly dark when the storm started. The wind blew fiercely, the rain was hitting side ways and within minutes, I realized I needed to be taking shelter. All I could see were fields, cows, Amish Barns and flying debris, amidst the lightning.
My IPhone alerted a warning sound and it said tornado warning take cover immediately. I had the choice to panic or remain calm in my seated position. I prayed Psalm 91 with all power and authority, trusting He was my shelter and refuge. I kept driving and before I realized it, I was safely back at the church in Millersburg.
The seated discipline we have learned has to become second nature and must be applied with the Word of God immediately. Your faith and trust in God has to back it up without any doubt. Jonah Norman: Getting it up now
