Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Our Assurance Of Ultimate Triumph
.. And so when we start to get a glimpse of all of this we begin to understand what our faith is all about. You see we need to understand what our faith embraces and the promises of God’s Word. God’s sovereignty assures the Christian of the ultimate triumph that we have in Jesus Christ over Satan and the world. We must never lose sight of that, it’s an absolute assurance to us. We have ultimate triumph and victory in our Lord Jesus Christ over the world and over Satan. This is why I stress so much that we are a Royal Priesthood. We are royalty unto The Lord – chosen in Christ. ‘ God’s Eternalness With Regard To Faith. ‘
Our Authority In The Heavenlies
Are we beginning now to see that authority that God has given to us and the Church. This is why our prayers supplications and intercessions are not in this earth, they are up with Christ in heavenly places. We war above it all, above the enemy, that is our place of intercession. Sometimes we need to be reminded that we are above all that. What we are praying believing confessing is to do with eternity as God is eternal. When we can grasp this and get this from our heads to our hearts we won’t any longer battle in believing. We will know as we are led by The Spirit that God answers.
Faith In Eternity
You know that your prayers have been answered.. that your heavenly Father has heard because Jesus had that assurance. That was His faith – we’ve said it many many times – He spoke only that which The Father revealed, because His faith was in eternity. Even though He was in flesh, in body – He took on humanity, He emptied Himself of diety.. of Almighty God.. of glory. The one who created the heavens and the earth took on human form.. forever GodMan. No other religion can appeal to that.. .. ..
Hebrews 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all..
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,

Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
