This morning I was encouraged by the Lord’s prayer in John 17:22-23, where He says, And the glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, even as We are one; I in them, and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one, that the world […]
we are becoming the house of His beauty by receiving His daily dispensing in His Word
How wonderful – God is beautified in His church, and the church is the house of His beauty! By putting Himself into us as the Spirit and the word, Christ becomes our beauty, brightness, and splendor! When we get into the Word of God, as Eph 5:26-27 says, we are being washed, cleansed, purified, and […]
The Bible is about Life and Building; God is seeking a building, and we are saved for God’s building!
In the entire Bible we see that God is seeking a building. The very first vision in the Bible, which sets the principle for all the following visions in the Bible, is Jacob’s dream in Gen. 28 – a vision of Bethel, God’s dwelling place. All the spiritual visions in the Scriptures are with God’s […]

Such words are, as we saw before, SEED, EXTENSION, and, as Isaiah 53:12 reveals, SPOIL. Here is what this verse says, Therefore I will divide to […]
Christ will prosper in the pleasure of Jehovah and He will extend His days – we are His continuation!
Through Christ’s death and resurrection He produced the many grains – the many sons of God – the many brothers of Christ! This is actually the pleasure of Jehovah – it pleases God to reveal Himself into us, to make us the seed of Christ, to make us a part of Christ, to make us […]
through Christ’s resurrection we became the many grains, the brothers of Christ, and the sons of God!
Praise the Lord for His wonderful resurrection! Christ accomplished so much through His incarnation, crucifixion, and especially through His resurrection! In the book of Isaiah, there are some “windows” into seeing what Christ’s resurrection accomplished – as Isaiah 53:10-11 reveals, When He makes Himself an offering for sin, He will see a seed, He will […]
