eXALTED ABOVE THE HEAVENS | Debbie Taylor Williams

“For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and

exalted above the heavens;”

Hebrews 7:26

Can you imagine what the disciples felt when Jesus, who had been speaking with them, was all of a sudden “lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight”? (Acts 1:9) I can’t imagine it. I’ve tried. Put yourself in the scene. There you are. Jesus is telling you that you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you and you will be His witness. That’s pretty mind boggling in itself. The Holy Spirit is going to come UPON YOU! Before you can get your mind around that, Jesus starts being lifted up. You’re in shock. His feet are literally off the ground. Your head is titled back. You look UP and watch until Jesus is gone…exalted above the heavens.

Lord God, I can’t get my mind around Your majesty and what Your throne room looks like. But, I’m so glad Jesus is with You, exalted above the heavens. I praise You for Your reign of love and peace!
