LIFE IN ALL ITS FULLNESS (2)
JOHN 15:11 (NKJV, GNB), JOHN 16:24 (NKJV, GNB) “…I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. *”I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and…your joy may be complete *Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.*Until now you have not asked for anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your happiness may be complete.
In the preceding text, Jesus tells the disciples that when they have His joy in them, their joy will be complete. Jesus also told them that as they hear His words, they will be filled with His joy. This means that the key to experiencing God’s fullness in every area of our lives is to have what Christ has in that area, and to have what Christ has, all we have to do is fill ourselves with Christ’s revelation.
Remember that Jesus is the word (John 1:1, 3, 14). Just as the word creates all things, the life of Jesus is also formed in us by His word. The revelation of Christ produces the reality of Christ in us, and that reality is what completes us. The nature of Christ is formed in us by the revelation of Christ (Gal.4:19). As a result of filling yourself with Christ’s revelation, the health of Christ manifests in you, and your health will be full; the prosperity of Christ manifests in you, and your prosperity will be full. The wisdom of Christ manifests in you, and your wisdom will be complete.
In our second text above, Jesus gave His disciples another key to experiencing fullness – doing everything in His name (authority). God wants us to do everything we do in the authority of Christ, (Col.3:17). Pray in the authority of Christ. Love and relate with people as Christ.
FAITH DECLARATION:
The revelation of Christ is filling me with Christ’s reality, and through Christ’s reality, I experience God’s fullness. Wisdom will overflow
