Ephesians 1:22-23
And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
Jesus is the head over the church.
Over ALL things to the church.
Christ is our King and ruler.
We are His body, His representatives.
We are His salt and light in the world.
Notice "the fullness of Him who fills all in all".
Jesus completes all of us in every way.
Or you can say each of us in every way.
Whose way?
Christ's way.
God's way.
And how do we know the Lord's will and the Lord's way?
Through His word, the Bible.
See the relationship between us and Jesus.
He is our head.
He is not just in authority, though He is that.
He is also alive through us, as we are alive in His body.
And He is the source of the church.
Without him as head, there is no body for us to be a part of.
Without Him, we are dead outside the body.
What we do at His direction, is what He is doing through us.
So, we can say, "It is not I who lives, but Christ lives in me."
This is the plan coming to fruition.
When we follow our head, our leader, our Lord and Savior.
We are His.
We have been bought for a very dear price.
So, we owe him our allegiance and service.
Let's remember who we are and Whose we are.
Remember Who lives in us and Who we have our life in.
