CHRIST IS ALL IN ALL

“And of His Fullness have all we received, and grace for grace” JOHN 1:16

“And hath put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all in all” EPHESIANS 1:22-23

 

Kindly repeat this after me, of His fullness have I received! I urge you to receive this into your spirit and think it through, take heed as unto a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arises in your heart. See, The Word of God will be of no use to you till it finds a resting place in your heart, in your spirit, and upon constant and effective brooding over, hatches the desired result. Of the fullness of Christ Jesus, The Word of God who was from the beginning have we all received. God isn’t called The Many Breasted God, El-Shaddai for no reason. He is The Almighty God who fills all in all, and is able to do all things. Whatever you need, He is! He is the answer to all your needs and does not refer you to any specialist. He is the Specialist. Scripture says that it pleased God The Father that in Christ Jesus should all fullness dwell (COLOSSIANS 1:19). You can only be made complete in Him, nothing else satisfies. You can search throughout eternity and and none can compare. You are complete in Him, says His Word (COLOSSIANS 2:10). No success or achievement in life is ever complete without Christ. People can have everything they want materially and still have faintness or leanness in their souls, ” And He gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul” PSALM 106:15. I wish and desire in The Name of The Lord Jesus that in all you do, and all you have, your soul prospers as well, that you may lack nothing. Whatsoever you shall ask in my name, that will I do, He said (JOHN 14:13). Now, who on earth can be so confident to make such a bold claim? These are no vain or empty promises or claims. They are not one of those vain promises a man makes a woman when infatuated, like “I will cross the ocean for you”, and all the crazy stuff. Will God ever lie to you? He is not a man that He should lie, neither the son of man that He should repent of what He says (NUMBERS 23:19). Whatsoever means whatsoever, an all inclusive claim. Christ Jesus is that versatile and handyman who does everything. Just sit down quietly and begin to examine your self, have a deeper search of your soul, and ask what your desires are. It could be anything, and He is ever ready to make it happen. Whatever is lacking in your life that makes you lean and incomplete, just ask Him. It could be anything baby, anything! Just go ahead and make your requests known unto Him, and His peace which surpasses all understanding shall keep your heart and mind through. You are going to live life to the fullness, you are going to have that family you always desired. He will heal that disease and make you whole. Satisfaction in Christ Jesus is guaranteed, and of His fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.

We can only be that fruitful bough by the wall, whose branches run over the wall when we are plugged or connected to The Fruitful Vine who is Christ Jesus. He gives life in abundance. He is that Living Fountain which never dries. We will drink from that Rock and quench our thirsty souls forever. Just run to the rock and receive that fullness and satisfaction. I dare you to bare your famished soul to Him today. Streams of living water will flow from His fountain and quench your thirsty soul. He fills all in all, and you are complete in Him who is the head of all principality, and all power. In The Name that is above all names, Jesus Christ, Son of The Living God. Amen and Amen!

WELL FURNISHED IN CHRIST

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” EPHESIANS 1:3

“For it pleased the Father that in Him should all fullness dwell” COLSSIANS 1:19

 

An old African saying paraphrased, if a man is a king and knows not that he is a king, even a servant is better-off than him. Solomon also said something in the book of Ecclesiastes worth noting down, “I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth” ECCLESIASTES 10:7. This is an evil disease beloved, this aught not to be so. Paul told the Galatians that an heir as long as he is a child differs not from a servant though he is lord of all, but is brought under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father (GALATIANS 4:1-2). He once again said to the Corinthian Church, “When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things” 1 CORINTHIANS 13:11. The word child is synonymous with folly and ignorance. Ignorance is bliss? Think again! My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (HOSEA 4:6). Did you know that you have already been blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ? I know you have read this scripture several times but take your time slowly and read it again. For some it may be first time coming across this, just read it slowly and take it slowly. We are not yet to be blessed but have been blessed already with ALL (not some) spiritual blessings in Christ. If you never knew this, ignorance can no longer be bliss but pain. Lack of knowledge of something valuable can make you despise the thing in question. If you see a diamond in a dirt and you know not what it is, you are liable to despise it and trample under your feet. It was the lack of knowledge and understanding of spiritual blessings that made Esau despise his birthright and sold it to Jacob for a mere pottage. See, you can say anything you want about Jacob but you can’t fault that man’s understanding and respect for spiritual things. If any man was to carry the blessings of Abraham and the covenant to the next generation and seeing that it continued, it had to be Jacob, it had to be someone with knowledge and respect for spiritual blessings. A friend told me how she’s changing her life insurance which is in the name of the first born to the other child because she just can’t trust that the eldest can handle things when she’s no more. God in His infinite wisdom knew, purposed, and declared that Esau shall serve Jacob, that Jacob shall be greater, that Jacob could be trusted with passing on to the next generation. At a very old age when he was about to die and his eyes were very dim, he guided his hands wittingly and crossed them upon Ephraim and Manasseh, HALLELUYAH! See, Isaac at this same stage of his life lacked spiritual discernment and was deceived but not Jacob. He guided his hands wittingly, placed the right upon Ephraim who was the youngest, and the left on Manasseh who was the eldest. When Joseph interrupted and felt the father was mistaken for his lack of sight, he said, I know, I know (GENESIS 48:13-20). Men with knowledge of spiritual blessings can’t be faulted.

We now have a better covenant established upon better promises. Christ Jesus became a curse for us when He was hanged on the tree, that these blessings may come upon us (GALATIANS 3:13-14). In Him and Him alone did it please God The Father that all fullness should dwell. All fullness the bible says! Fullness in the sense of completeness, all spiritual blessings. Being engrafted into Christ who is the vine and the roots affords us all spiritual blessings, everything we need. Wonder why Jesus said, “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son” JOHN 14:13. Whatsoever, everything, nothing excluded, all inclusive, anything, because all fullness is in Him and in Him we have already been blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places. If you don’t know, now you know! All you need, when you need, is in Christ Jesus. Blessing is the power to be. You have the power to be whoever you want to be. Arise and shine for your light is come and the glory of The LORD is risen upon you. We are blessed, we are blessed, thank God we are blessed. In The Name that is above all names, Jesus Christ, Son of The Living God. Amen and Amen!
