Perspective

My favorite all time song is, Heaven on Earth, performed by Micah Stampley in Nigeria. The guitar player in this You Tube video shows exactly how I feel when I hear this song, enjoy!

Certain aspects of that song strike a very deep chord with me. 
In particular:

Heaven is calling for you to come higher!
To see everything from a new point of view!
To be seated with Jesus in Heavenly places!
From His perspective everything is made new!

In order to see things from His perspective, we must know what His perspective is. 

For He raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 2:6, NLT)

For, "Who can know the LORD's thoughts? Who knows enough to teach him?" But we understand these things, for we have the mind of Christ. (1 Corinthians 2:16, NLT)

Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. (Luke 10:19, NKJV)

Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. (Jeremiah 33:3, NKJV)

He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The Lord shall hold them in derision. (Psalms 2:4, NLT)

When I speak according to the Word and will of God, heaven responds. (Mark 11:23-24, NLT)

 I have been justified by faith, and I have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 5:1, NLT)

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17, NKJV)

But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God's very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for He called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light. (1 Peter 2:9, NLT)

Sky and earth will wear out; my words won't wear out. (Mark 13:31, The Message)



How about you? 
Are you operating according to your perspective? 
Or are you operating according to God's perspective?
