“This is the declaration of the Lord to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.””
Psalms 110:1 CSB
God is telling king David that He (God) does not need David’s help to fight the battle. Sitting is not an active position, but rather passive and even a sign of relaxation. God has not changed and continues to fight our battles.
It is not that we are off the hook and can spend our time chillin doing whatever we want to do…rather He is asking us to sit under His authority and effort toward surrender to His will. It seems like that would be easy, but it takes a lot of practice.
The biggest factor in my experience is believing and trusting that God only wants what is best for me. This includes hard things, disappointment, sadness and pain…not because the experience is a delight, but because the results are priceless. It is always about the results for God. He is single minded in making me more like Jesus. And that is what I want too…
