“Christ sits in the place of honour: ‘_on the right hand of the Majesty on high_.’(**
Hebrews 1:4**)

Jesus sits on the right hand of His Father, He dwells in the highest conceivable
honour and dignity.

All the angels worship Him, and all the blood-washed host adore Him day without 
night. The Father delights to honour Him.

> _‘The highest place that heaven affords_
>  _Is His, is His by right,_ _The King
> of kings, and Lord of lords,_ _And heaven’s eternal light.’_

Not only does Jesus sit in the place of honour, but He occupies the place of safety.
None can hurt Him now; none can stay His purposes, or defeat His will.

He is at the powerful right hand of God.

In heaven above, and on the earth beneath, and in the waters under the earth, and
on every star, He is supreme Lord and Master; and they that will not yield to Him
shall be broken with a rod of iron, He shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s
vessel.

So His cause is safe; His kingdom is secure, for He is at the right hand of power.”

–Charles H. Spurgeon, “Depths and Heights,” in _The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit
Sermons, vol. 45_ (London: Passmore & Alabaster, 1899), 45: 392-393.
