Fact 6

The facts of which we are told in the Bible are like stepping-stones across a brook.
This is a great fact to complete this chapter:

Is it a fact that Satan is under Christ's feet?
Then, in God's purpose he is under ours also.

Are death and the grave for ever behind Christ? So, in God's purpose, we have passed to the Resurrection side of them both, and are to the windward of the storm. As far as their sting or terror is concerned, they are like the Egyptians dead on the sea shore.

Has the great High Priest passed through the heavens within the veil? So, in the purpose of God, we too have passed from the outer court into the Holy Place, where we offer gifts, sacrifices of praise, supplications, and intercessions for all men.

All this may appear unreal and impossible, as the idea of being the bride of a prince was, to a poor Cinderella, but is nevertheless our true position.
These are the facts of the eternal world, whether you avail yourself of them or not.

There are not a few cases on record of prisoners starving in bondage because they would not avail themselves of freedom which was offered; and of noblemen living a hard and difficult life because they would not claim their rights!

Father,
thank You for the many victories of the Lord Jesus Christ on my behalf.
Teach me how to understand them all and how to make full use of them in my life,
in His precious name I pray,
Amen.
