Glorious day to you all!
Know that if you are in Christ, than you are part of His body and everything is subjected under His feet. So that means, everything that is not of God is under you. He has given you authority over these things, because His Spirit is in you. In John 15 and 16, Jesus is continually talking to His disciples and now to us. In 15, He talks about abiding in Him and the unity we have with Him. In 16:33 He says, "take heart for I have overcome the world." So in this continual monologue he is making it evident that if we are one with Him, we are now authoritators and overcommers. We are more than conquerors.
So as you read this, know you do not have to be under the control of your circumstance, though your flesh may be getting abused by your circumstance, your spirit is above those things. Evil that is under our feet only has power if we allow it to have power. Stand over those things and don't allow them to take control. The key here is Him, He puts us in our right place, below Him and above death. We were made to look at Him, not ourselves or our circumstances. We were also made not to have control, He is in control. So as a circumstance comes which may make us feel uneasy we should let it come, invite it as a friend, because Gods goodness always present in any circumstance. So let us look at Him to see the goodness He is giving to us! Enjoy every moment, even when facing fleshly abuse or a fallen world, He still wants us to see Him. He is in it for the process and gives us things to make us more like Him. James 1:2-4.
