Under His Feet
Ephesians 1:20-23
He demonstrated this power in the Messiah by raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His right hand in the heavens – far above every ruler and authority, power and dominion, and every title given; not only in this age but also in the one to come. And He put everything under His feet and appointed Him as head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of the One who fills all things in every way.
I hope you see what I see here. Christ is supreme! There is no authority here or in heaven greater than He is, nor will there ever be! Praise God! If Christ is for you, who can be against you? He can open doors no man can shut because He is in charge.
God has put everything under the feet of Jesus. Those words are bold in my Bible, which means God made a strong statement in saying it. If everything is under the feet of Jesus, shouldn’t we turn there for answers? If anything is under His feet, it is subject to His authority, and He has dominion over it. No weapon formed against you shall prosper because ultimately, He has control over that weapon. That doesn’t mean the enemy won’t try to attack or challenge Jesus’s authority, but it will eventually have to bow to Him and accomplish good for you instead of evil.
Christ is head over everything for the church, which is His body. God made Him the head for our sake. He doesn’t intend for the Devil to devour us; His plan has always been for us to be triumphant over him, and He placed Christ in charge of everything to insure our victory. In fact, we should face our battles from the standpoint of victory, knowing that God has gone before us and given us sure success. Rejoice in your victory today, and give God the glory for the great things He has done!
Have a blessed day!
