[Glory Unveiled]
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. [ Colossians 3:2 KJV ]
An electronic device holds numerous possibilities, yet these potentials remain concealed within a set of instructions stored in the device’s settings. Two devices from the same manufacturer, boasting identical features, can yield disparate outcomes due to variations in their settings and one’s knowledge or mastery of those settings. Similarly, there are abundant possibilities above, where Christ is seated, but these potentials are obscured by the settings of our affections. Without setting our affections on things above, we cannot experience the corresponding realities. Our lives manifest the realities of the locations to which our affections are set. To establish our affections, we must deliberately focus our minds on something until our subconscious perceives it as reality. If our minds are fixated on earthly matters, our lives will manifest earthly results. It is evident from the aforementioned points that we bear the responsibility of setting our minds on either heavenly or earthly things. Choosing not to set our affections on anything is a decision in itself, as our affections naturally assume a default posture—the fallen man’s inclination towards things on this earth. Your default affection is what you respond to consciously and unconsciously, defining you more than any external labels. What you respond to is a reflection of what your affection is pinned to. Therefore, set your affection right, and your life will mirror it.
