In this episode, The Glorious One | Seated, we explore what it means that Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father — and how this truth transforms the way we live today.

Drawing from Hebrews 8:1–2 and Ephesians 2:5–6, we unpack the mystery of union with Christ: not only is Jesus seated in the heavenly realms, but we are seated with Him. The episode dives into why this “seated” posture matters — because it signifies completion, rest, and victory. Our High Priest has finished the work, and now we’re invited to live from His finished seat of authority, not striving to earn identity, purpose, or value.

We look at how the power of sin isn’t found in our “old self,” but in the law — the system of striving under the old covenant. Through Romans 7:4, we see how we’ve died to that system and have been joined to Christ under a new covenant of grace — where the Holy Spirit empowers us instead of the law restraining us.

The conversation then turns to Hebrews 3–4, where faith and rest are deeply connected. Faith is obedience; unbelief is disobedience. The writer of Hebrews warns not to harden our hearts, but to enter His rest — trusting that the work is finished and that God speaks today. We confront unbelief head-on, calling listeners to repent of the lie that “God doesn’t speak to me,” and to walk forward in faith even if they stumble — because every step of faith is a victory.

Finally, we return to Hebrews 8, where Jesus’ seated position is a reminder of heaven’s perspective. Faith, at its core, is agreeing with that perspective. Our response? To be seated with Him by faith. To stop striving. To enter His rest.

Key Themes:

• Jesus as our eternal High Priest

• The end of striving under the law

• The invitation to live from grace, not for it

• Faith as rest and agreement with heaven’s perspective

Takeaway:
You don’t have to keep standing to prove something to God — you can sit down with Him. The work is finished. Rest in grace.
