JESUS IS THE HEAD, AND WE ARE HIS BODY
And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fullness of him that fillet all in all.
(Ephesians 1:22-23)
You are one with Christ-joined to Him. Whatever is in Him, as the Head, is also in the body.
Mark Hankins
Remember that Christ is the head, and we are His body. Your head and your body go together, right? Jesus is not decapitated! His head and His body go together!
If He is seated in heavenly places, you are seated with Him, and if He is blessed, you are blessed.
Your head and your body go by the same name. You do not have one name for your head and a different name for your body. When you go into a bank, you do not open up different accounts for your head and your body. No, you are one.
1 Corinthians 6:17 says, “He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” You are one with Christ, joined to Him. Your identity is wrapped up with who you are in Christ and what you have in Him.
Confession: Everything God did in Christ He has also done in me. I was made righteous with Him!
Good morning! I’m so thankful for your morning devotionals. I don’t always read them but when I do they’re so encouraging. I am not a baby Christian yet I have been put back a couple of times (failed a few classes/courses/tests), had to move in the middle of a school year and or just dropped out and said that GED is okay with me! Lol, BUT God loves me so much that he sent his Powerful Sweet Way Smarter than me Precious Holy Spirit to help me finish the Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth!
I used to ask, why are there so many churches? After reading this I see more clearly. I knew that we were his body and I how often the comparisons of the physical body (having eyes, ears, etc) have been made but today the cellular level was highlighted to me. Some churches flow caring the blood and what the body needs to each organ of the body! Glory to God! We all have a part to play no matter how small we think it is, it’s not insignificant!
