Secret Place of Ascent
“O My dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs….”. Song of Solomon 2:14
It is wonderous to me that hidden in the 1st Testament was a key to ascent and positioning that would be made available, in and through Christ, thousands of years later. In the Song of Solomon, there is a secret place of stairs or a secret place of ascent. It is found in the shadow, in the covering, in the “cleft of the rock.” It is not a hiding place, but rather a reflection of what is offered, and it leads to a pathway of goodness, abundance, wholeness (body and spirit), and where His authority and power rest upon you as you are seated in Him. He is calling us in to see us, those who believe and abide so that we may sit in the heavenly place as sons and heirs.
“And He raised us up together with Him (when we believed), and seated us with Him in the heavenly places (because we are) in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 2:6
It is a secret place of intent that far too few access, but the invitation has been extended. The door is open if you will step through and a pathway of ascent in waiting. You must first step in and the rising begins. It requires you to give your yes and amen which represents a beginning and completion, in Him.
Rise and be seated with Him in heavenly places. It is a divine space where your spirit dwells with Him. As you go about your day to day life- work, chores, errands, sports, your body functions as it was intended in the earth as your spirit rests and you are seated fully and completely, in Him.
My encouragement to you today, step in to where He is calling you. Set your foot upon the path and ascend the steps in front of you. It’s leading you to the seat prepared for you in heavenly places.
