victoryIn the first chapter of Ephesians, there is a great prayer that reveals God's desire for us as His chosen and accepted ones.

Ephesians 1:17-20 English Standard Version (ESV)

17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places...

This Part 1 sharing sets the foundation that God can and will open the eyes of our spiritual understanding as we realize that is His desire too and that we can partner with Him in seeking it and receiving it.

Part 2 will examine walking in the authority that is ours through the work of Jesus Christ, evidenced when God raised him from the dead and seated him at His own right hand. (Eph 1:20)

Now, we operate from a place of rest because the spiritual victory is ours by grace, so we are no longer VICTIMS, but VICTORS!!
