It's NOT about your condition it's about your position!
My spiritual grandmother told me this, "Daily Divert, Weekly Withdrawal and Annually Abandon". At the time she said it, I never dreamed I could do it. I was looking at the statement from my current condition. Now that I can do it I see it from my position.
Ephesians 2:6 (NIV) "And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,"
When we look at life through our current conditions many things that are possible will seem impossible. However when we look at things from our position in Christ even the impossible seems possible. A friend of mine was battling a health issue and she suggested we walk to the Pier. It seemed a long way to me for her to walk, but walk we did. There were times she had to stop and her pace at times was much slower than mine. From her condition I did not think she could or should do it. From her position (the one she confesses-that she is already healed) she knew she could. Her faith took her places that in the natural seemed impossible. She knew that in Christ she was already healed and in Him she could do all things. Walking to the Pier was just one of the many "things" she believed she could do.
What about you? Never mind where you are today. Where are you headed? Today I am at the beach but when I get home I have an opportunity to pour into a group of women that are going places. So from my position I am allowing Father God to refresh and renew me. He knows I am about His business and I know He is about mine. My condition is I am tired from the last few days of ministering in South Carolina. But I do not listen to what my condition says, for my position tells me I am an overcomer and that everything I lay my hand to prospers.
Position matters more than condition!
