"....Christ...seated...in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come." (Ephesians 1)
After praying in the Pennsylvania State Capitol Building in Harrisburg, PA, our text came to me. It was once again a time of praying "on site with insight." This "on site with insight" never fails when I am "on site."
These, "Words of God," are a reminder of just Who we serve. He is Jesus Christ, our King and Savior, and the Sole heir of, "far above all rule and authority and power and dominion." And this same Jesus is also, "far above...every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come."
No matter the outcome of the upcoming US Mid-Term Elections, the results of which will impact the entire Global Community of Nations, you and I can rest today in Jesus Christ, "Who Is our Peace," while we labor in Jesus Christ and for Jesus Christ, "in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation," for which we pray to come out of bondage into His Glorious Light.
Father, in Jesus' Name, I am so thankful to You for the empowering reality of our text. Amen.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
Hebrews 12:2
