How to Maintain a Heavenly Perspective (2min)
Article by Jerame Nelson
God wants to realign our hearts to Heaven. I believe it is time for a mindset shift from fear and doubt to see what Jesus thinks about your situation. God wants us to walk with a heavenly perspective, realizing that we are already seated in heavenly places with Christ.
“And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,” Ephesians 2:6 NIV
It’s not time to escape, it’s time to enter in!
Many in the church have developed an “escaping mindset.” They are barely getting by, waiting to go to Heaven to escape the trials of this life. Church, we are called to enter in. There will be trials in this world but nobody is going to walk in the signs and wonders of God without paying a price.

It’s time to shift our mindsets to align and see how Jesus thinks about life. Think about the greatest breakthrough that can happen in your situation and start to align your faith to that. Break agreement with your fear and align your faith with heaven. Align with the Bible and with the prophetic words spoken over your life. Then, you will begin to see from Heaven’s perspective.
We are already seated with Christ.
Jesus dwells above all the rulers and demonic forces. You are with Christ seated high above those things too. When you truly believe this, your confidence is going to grow because you are stepping into your identity, your heavenly perspective. I believe that some of the greatest warfare in this season is going to happen when we are resting in him. Don’t worry about the demons. Focus on Jesus. Go after falling in love with Him. When you do, you start to think like him and talk like Him. You begin to want what He wants. You start obtaining the riches of Heaven.
“[…] namely Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” Colossians 2:2-3 NIV
Jesus gave us access to intimacy.

In the Old Testament, only the priests could enter into the holy place. We enter into heavenly places through the blood of Jesus. He is the Lamb that was slain. The veil was torn in two, symbolizing a new era of access to the Father. You can enter into the holy of holies in your living room, in your car, at school. God responds to your hunger. I know Jesus can’t resist my love when my motive is Him. It’s time to sit on the Father’s lap and see what He sees.
Keep It Simple…
The enemy has been defeated and we are seated with Jesus in heavenly places. From this place, warfare changes. Jesus’ victory is our victory. Focus on Him. Put on the mind of Christ. Grow in your intimacy with Jesus and you will begin to know His heart and live from His perspective.
