Scripture Post #472: *FAR ABOVE*

Ephesians 1:

20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 

21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

Context: This Scripture was from Apostle Paul, to the Saints which were at Ephesus (Eph. 1:1).

JESUS CHRIST is set at the FATHER's "right hand in the heavenly places, 

[verse 21:] Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion"!

We serve a KING WHO reigns high, far above us all; WHO has "put all things under his feet"!
