Fullness In Him

PSALM 23

The Lord is my Shepherd.
That's Relationship!

I shall not want.
That's a Supply!

He makes me to lie down in green pastures.
That's Rest!

He leads me beside the still waters.
That's Refreshment!

He restores my soul.
That's Healing!

He leads me in the path of righteousness.
That's Guidance!

For His name's sake.
That's Purpose!

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death.
That's Testing!

I will fear no evil.
That's Protection!

For Thou art with me.
That's Faithfulness!

Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
That's Discipline!

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.
That's Hope!

Thou anointest my head with oil.
That's Consecration!

My cup runs over.
That's Abundance!

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.
That's Blessing!

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord.
That's Security!

Forever.
That's Eternity!

The Lord is my Shepherd, He is all that I need!

The Lord is my Good, Great and Chief Shepherd

"Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of
judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in
love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that
feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us.
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that
loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath
not seen? (1 John 4:17-20, KJV)

As He is, so are WE in the world. We ARE His body. The Scriptures declare
that Jesus and His Father seek to live IN us and THROUGH us.

"Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words:
and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode
with him." (John 14:23)

Jesus prayed that His body on earth be one with Him even as He was one with
His Father:

"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me
into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. And for their
sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the
truth. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe
on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in
me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may
believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have
given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in
me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that
thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. (John
17:17-23)

"Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is
liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the
Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the
Spirit of the Lord." (1 Cor. 3:17, 18)

This is what Jesus would like to manifest through His body (which we are)
that the world might know that the Father of all creation truly sent Him.

"Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is
above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those
in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that
every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God
the Father." (Philippians 2:9-11)

Imagine how the world would change if His body was truly delivered from all
the things that prevent it from manifesting His fullness. I pray that all of
us who espouse His name seriously consider the thoughts contained in this
message - that we would earnestly seek to find out all that inhibits us from
manifesting the fullest manifestation of His Reality and Presence in His
body, which we are.

I pray that we all be delivered from the sin of unbelief. May we all clearly see that even our worst enemies are our neighbors whom we are to love even as Jesus loved His enemies; that we truly understand the parable of the Good Samaritan. I pray that we enter the full reality of a love which has no fear -- no torment -- that we manifest the peace that passes all understanding so that the world may learn true peace.

I pray that all of the body of Christ become transparent and without
hypocrisy that the world may see the Truth be expressed in a Body on earth
once again so that the world may learn righteousness. I pray that the
"traditions of men which make the word of God of no effect" be broken off
Christians miraculously even as the shackles which held Peter in prison were
broken off. (Acts 12:3-18)

I pray that each of those who read these words are drawn by the Holy Spirit to take some quality time to dwell on the fullness of all that our Father and Savior are and what They desire to express to the earth through us, His body. May the Spirit of revelation bring a fuller understanding of what it means to be a part of His body in the earth. May His Word once again be expressed through His body in such a power that the world may know they are loved by the Father of all mankind and His Son, Jesus Whom He designated from before the foundation of the world to be its savior. May they both be glorified in His saints through the
Holy Spirit in ways unimaginable to the Adamic mind. May the apostle Paul's
revelations of the mysterious of God be brought to full understanding in His
Saints. Amen. --Gary Amirault

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed
us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he
chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in
his sight. In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus
Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will -- to the praise of his
glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we
have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance
with the riches of God's grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and
understanding. And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to
his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when
the times will have reached their fulfillment-- to bring all things in
heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ. In him we were
also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works
out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we,
who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.

"And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the
gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a
seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our
inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession -- to the
praise of his glory. For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in
the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving
thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.

"I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father,
may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him
better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order
that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his
glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us
who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he
exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his
right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power
and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age
but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and
appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body,
the fullness of him who fills everything in every way. (Eph. 1:3-23; see
also Rev. 19:10, NIV)
