But he that is joined unto the Lord
is one spirit (1 Corinthians 6:17).
In Christianity, what God has done
is to make us one with Him. It's the biggest thing about our salvation in
Christ Jesus—our oneness with the Lord. We're not mere followers or disciples
of Jesus Christ, we're in fellowship with Him; it's a vital union.
God may be a mystery to the
spiritually unlearned, but not to you. His ways are now your ways, and His
thoughts have become your thoughts. Through His Word, and the guidance of the
Holy Spirit, His will is unveiled to your spirit. Some people are never sure of
God's will; they imagine Him as a complex, distant, mysterious being;
therefore, they're unable to walk with Him.
God's purpose is what He already
accomplished in Christ: He brought you into oneness with Himself, so you can be
synchronized with Him in thoughts and actions; so He can live out His perfect
will and purposes in and through you. That's what living by the fullness of His
wisdom (Greek: Phronesis) is about. Always, you do what you ought to do, say
what you ought to say, at the right time, in the right way, in the right place,
for the right purpose. Hallelujah!
PRAYER: Dear Father, my joy knows
no bounds, to know that I've been brought into an inseparable union with you,
to enjoy the bliss of rich and intimate fellowship with the Spirit! My life is
the expression of your perfect will, as you manifest yourself to and through me
today, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Further Study: Ephesians 5:30
For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
John 17:21 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.
