EVENING | PAULINE EPISTLES | BOOK 49 of 66 | EPHESIANS 3
Signpost Words | ‘THE FELLOWSHIP OF MYSTERY’
Highlight Verses | Ephesians 3:9-19
….and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him. Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height — to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. NKJV
Some Observations |
Only spiritual eyes can see this spiritual entity, this mystery now revealed and paraded in beauty before all the spiritual hosts of heaven in all their ranks and privileges. Here is the temple of God, the body of Christ, the bride of Christ, the abode of the all filling fullness of God, the church, as glorious as an army with banners.
A Call To Action |
The proclamation of spiritual words lets loose this light of revelation. Prayer captures and cossets this light in our cracked-pot jars of clay.
