Are you full of the Godhead and His Love?
May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love, That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted
people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]; [That you may really come] to know [practically,
through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your
being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the
divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God
Himself]!
Ephesians 3:17-19 Amplified Version (we turned up the volume so you could hear what God was saying to you!)
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSES…
Love that surpasses knowledge. That’s very difficult to explain, but when you have loved your spouse for decades you begin to experience what this means. When you love a child and do what you never dreamed you could do for another human being, you begin to understand this phrase. And when you stand before God, adopted as a full heir of all His great riches, a full sibling (brother or sister) to Jesus Christ the Lord, and you know you are seen as holy, without reproach, and blameless, you begin to understand this phrase. The Love God has for His children. To stand in His great and awesome presence fully accepted and fully received! UNCONDITIONAL LOVE – Love that isn’t dependent on us doing something to earn it. Just making Jesus our Lord and believing in Him. Just let God touch you now with His awesome love.
MY PRAYER…
Holy and incredible Father, help me to know in my soul the love that is greater than words can ever tell. Help me to have the knowledge so that I may not only be like You, but that I may know You in experience just as I know You in faith. That I may be filled with all the fullness of You and have the richest measure of Your divine presence, being wholly filled and flooded with You Yourself. Father that I may be so full of You that anyone gazing on me will see nothing but Your light shining forth. That I may bring Glory and Honor unto to You.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen
