Raised With Christ
Being raised with Christ is what your spirit did when you believed in Jesus. The same resurrection experience that Jesus had was your experience on the inside when you believed. Jesus came to life and so did you when you trusted in Jesus. But Jesus didn't just rise from the dead; he ascended to heaven.
In today’s reading, Paul is connecting what we should do with what Jesus did. In other words, we should let our mind and heart rise to heaven just as Jesus did. Not only because we are going there one day, but because that is where Christ is; the One who we should be focused on.
Where we set our heart has a huge impact on our life. What if today you made an intentional effort to focus on Jesus each hour of the day. It could be a prayer, a moment of meditation, listening to worship, or 60 seconds of thanking Jesus.
Look at your schedule today and pray that God helps you to see him in every hour of the day. Pray for each meeting, every activity, every mealtime that God would become the focus. Pray that God would remind you of his great love throughout the entire day.
Take some time to be in complete silence. Quiet your mind from all the noise of your day. Place all your energy into listening and preparing your heart for what God might speak to you.
Prayer: Lord, you are welcome here with me. I invite you to come and speak to my heart. You know everything about me, and yet you still love me. Thank you for your acceptance and freedom to be with you. In Jesus' name, amen.
