What does it mean to dwell in high places?

Answered in 1 source

Dwell in high places means being secure and safe in Christ, who is our defense.

Isaiah 33:16 depicts the believer's position as one of safety and security in Christ, the 'rock.' Ephesians 2:6 complements this by explaining that believers are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, indicating a status that is above worldly danger. This concept emphasizes that our acceptance and protection are not based on our efforts but rely solely on Christ. By being in Christ, we are shielded from the condemnation that our sins deserve, and we experience the peace and assurance of salvation, a peace that is unattainable through our own works.
