Seated in Christ at the Right Hand Side of God | 3650 Minutes of Prayer

This is Day Nine of 3650 Minutes of Prayer. This episode centers on being seated in Christ, revealing what salvation truly means beyond what is seen. Scripture shows that salvation is not only forgiveness of sins, but participation in Christ Himself. What happened to Christ happened to us in Him. We were crucified with Christ, we died with Him, we were raised with Him, and we are now seated with Him. This is the unseen work of salvation, the eternal transaction accomplished through Christ.In Ephesians 1, Scripture reveals the authority and exaltation of The Christ, raised from the dead and seated at the right hand side of God. In Ephesians 2, Scripture declares that those who were once spiritually dead have been made alive together with Him and seated with Him in the heavenly places. Because we are seated in Christ, our life, authority, and speech flow from above, and what we abide in on earth aligns with what is established in heaven.Scripture also reveals that Christ is the Head and we are His body. Life and growth do not exist apart from Him. As He is, so are we in this world, because Christ lives in us, and He who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.These Scriptures lead us into prayer, grounding us in the finished work of Christ, where salvation is not merely rescue from death, but union with eternal life and divine position in Him.Prayer and Reflection Scriptures (AMP)Ephesians 1:20–23 (excerpt)“Which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion…And He put all things in subjection under Christ’s feet, and appointed Him as head over all things in the church, which is His body.”Ephesians 2:1–6 (excerpt)“And you [He made alive], when you were [spiritually] dead and separated from Him because of your transgressions and sins…But God—being [so very] rich in mercy… made us spiritually alive together with Christ…And He raised us up together with Him and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.”Galatians 2:20“I have been crucified with Christ [that is, in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body I live by faith [by adhering to, relying on, and completely trusting] in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”Matthew 18:18“I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whatever you bind on earth [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] shall have already been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth [permit, declare lawful] shall have already been loosed in heaven.”John 8:23“And He said to them, You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.”Colossians 1:18“He is also the Head [the life-source and leader] of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will occupy the first place [preeminence] in everything.”1 Corinthians 12:27“Now you [collectively] are Christ’s body, and [individually] you are members of it.”1 John 4:17“In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.”1 John 4:4“You are of God, little children (believers, dear ones), and have overcome them [the agents of the antichrist]; because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”There is One true God, the Creator of all things, revealed in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. There is One God and One Spirit Who has redeemed us all. I am Mathew Sekanjako, a believer in Christ Jesus (Yeshua HaMashiach), the one Son of God. I serve and confess God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. This intercession is offered in faith, in obedience, and in love, for all who will listen.
