The Best Seat Ever

Greetings,

Any sports fanatic knows that floor seats are the best seats in the house.  My former boss, a Miami Heat season ticket holder, often commented that sitting so close to the team meant you were in the "sweat zone," meaning it was very likely that as a player ran by, some of it would splash on you.  Oh the thrill! I don't think I would be as excited at the prospect, but I can see how being near the action might be cool.

Speaking of cool, you and I can do one better than floor seats.

Ephesians 2:6 God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms."
We who believe in Jesus have been raised up from death unto life and share His heavenly position.  

Even though the time will come when the perfection and glory of heaven will be ours completely, we are blessed with a mighty spiritual connection with our Lord right now.  When we pray we are right alongside Christ as He pleads before God (Romans 8:34).  Maybe you have doubted whether God hears you or not, but without a doubt, Christ has God's full attention.  If we are right next to Him, then you better believe our prayers are making a difference here on earth too. POWERFUL!

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Thank You for the best seat ever.  It is amazing to think that as we pray, we are so near to Christ and YOU ARE LISTENING! Thank You for all the answers You have for us.  In Jesus' name, AMEN.
