In the fascinating episode Seated In Authority with Isaac Pitre, Mike and Cindy Jacobs led a thoughtful discussion on the profound understanding of our spiritual position as believers. Today, we dive deeper into key insights that this conversation sparked regarding our identity in Christ and the implications of the ascension dimension.

In Seated In Authority with Isaac Pitre, the discussion dives into our spiritual position as believers, exploring key insights that sparked deeper analysis on our end.

What is the Ascension Dimension?

The term "ascension dimension" refers to our elevated spiritual position in Christ as described in the Book of Ephesians. As Isaac Pitre emphasizes, it is important for believers to understand that our salvation is not just about the cross — it extends to the throne where Jesus is now seated. It is in this heavenly place that we have authority and dominion over all spiritual forces.

The Power of Being Seated

The act of being seated in heavenly places signifies strength and authority. Ephesians explains that we are not merely saved from sin, but we are also elevated and given a role in implementing God’s kingdom on earth. This shifts the perspective further than just personal salvation; it encompasses a collective responsibility to ‘occupy’ spiritual territory and assert kingdom principles in various spheres of society.

Realizing Your Identity and Authority

Many individuals, even within the church, may feel defeated or unaware of their spiritual authority. Understanding your identity in Christ means recognizing that you are both saved and seated alongside Him. As Mike Jacobs points out, knowing your authority is essential for overcoming challenges in life. It’s about recognizing your divine assignment and purpose, which extends further than merely living a moral life.

Practical Insights for Spiritual Growth

The key takeaway is that our journey does not end at salvation; it begins anew. Believers should actively seek wisdom and revelation, as the Apostle Paul prayed for the Ephesians. From understanding your position in Christ to exercising that authority, each step taken can transform both personal and communal experiences.

Raising Awareness in the Christian Community

The concept of raising kings and preaching the kingdom is a significant part of the mission that Pitre embraces through his Second Kings Global Network. This network aims to equip and empower ministers and entrepreneurs, helping them understand the duality of their call: to serve and to protect in the world around them. It is much like the teachings in Genesis where humanity was given dominion with responsibilities to steward creation.

Call to Action

Engage with your community, grasp meaningful insights from discussions like those presented in Seated In Authority, and consider stepping into networks that promote spiritual growth and leadership.
