How does the exaltation of Christ affect believers?

Answered in 1 source

The exaltation of Christ assures believers of His sovereign rule and intercession on their behalf.

The exaltation of Christ has profound implications for believers. After completing the work of redemption, Christ ascended to the right hand of God, reflecting His sovereign authority over all creation, as evidenced in Hebrews 1:3 and Philippians 2:9-11. This exaltation means that He not only reigns as Lord but also intercedes for us before the Father (Romans 8:34). Believers can take comfort in the reality that Christ’s sovereignty assures us that no aspect of our lives is outside His control and that He is continually working for our good. Moreover, His exaltation serves as our hope for a future resurrection and glory, as we, too, are promised to be glorified with Him in eternity.
