Rhapsody of Realities July 10, 2025 MESSAGE
The Word of God gives us clear instructions as to how to live, the mindset we should have, and what our outlook on life should be. Take for example what we just read in our opening scripture. The Lord is telling you to focus on heavenly things and not on earthly things. Have a mountain-top view.
It brings to mind something remarkable that the Lord told me many years ago; He said, “Son, see from the mountaintop.” The interesting thing is, I didn’t even realize I was on the mountaintop until He told me. You see, it’s not something you feel physically or emotionally.
I know that some Christians say they are “journeying” and trying to get to the mountaintop. But being born again, you’re on the mountaintop. You’re risen with Christ; seated together with Him, far above principalities and powers. Therefore, see from there. Live from there. It’s the best view. Hallelujah!
From the mountaintop, you see things clearly. Your perspective is elevated. You’re above the distractions and limitations of the world. You see from a higher realm, the realm of the Spirit, where it’s only victory, strength, health, prosperity and unending progress.
Ponder again what we read in Colossians 3:2, “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” Your thoughts, desires, focus and devotion should be directed towards heavenly realities, not earthly distractions. Align your mind with the heavenly perspective and live victoriously every day.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for raising me up with Christ to live and see from the mountaintop. My affection is set on heavenly things, and my vision is clear and focused; I live above the distractions and limitations of this world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
