Standing And State

State is the quality of your present experience (Condition)


Standing is an unmovable fixed (Position)


Position and Condition in Christ Jesus. Your perception or understanding of who you are and where you stand in Christ.


The Christian Standing is the "Position" that God immediately automatically places him in the second he accept Christ Jesus as Saviour and Lord.(This is Grace) But A Christian's "State" may be altogether different but not opposed to his Position in Christ.


The State is the Christian Condition or Character during his walk with God, as God gives to every man a measure of faith; its at this point that the Lord begins to deal with the Christian to measure up their faith so that their Condition can be aligned with their Position in Christ. New Wine can not be put or (Processed) into old wineskins, there's a process more for some than others, as the father said to Jesus about his son; Lord I believe help my unbelief which is a characteristic flaw unable to understand or maintain truth. The acknowledgment and admittance to God of ones Condition (State) for recovery is aligning to his Position (Standing) in Christ.



Your Condition must be in league with your Position in Christ or your find yourself laboring for what God has already done for you. That is to bring the believers Character (which is his "State" into Conformity his "Position" which he already has in Christ)

Apostle Paul demonstrated in Phil.4:11-13 the Believers mindset in dealings with everdays life circumstances with its ups and downs, emotional rollercoaster rides. Therefore it is imperative to stay fully emerged in the word of God; along with praying without ceasing.


We are in this world but not of this world therefore the old nature which has not been totally annihilated will try to rise up when things seem unfair and make our born again experience null and void, this is why the word of God says our new nature groan with words that cannot be uttered yearning for our full redemption after all is said and done when we get to glory it will all be worth it. Keeping a fresh intact relationship God through the power of the Holyghost is a must to stay victorious.
