Every Day With Jesus Devotional, January 2, by Andrew Wommack
January 2: You Have His Fullness John 1:16-17
John 1:16-17
The Word (Jesus) Made His Dwelling Among Us
16 And of His fullness we have received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given through Jesus Christ.
And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. John 1:16
The Christian life is not like an insurance policy that only pays off when we die and go to heaven. Every believer has now received the grace of God and the fullness of God. Everything He is, we now possess in our born-again spirits. We are complete in Him. (Col. 2:9-10.)
9 For in Him (Jesus) dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; 10 and you {believers} are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.
When we receive Jesus as our Lord, we are instantly changed in our spirits (2 Corinthians 5:17: Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.), but many of us aren’t aware of the change that takes place inside us. Thus, we continue to live by our physical senses and natural mind, and we are oblivious to the new, born-again part of us that has received the fullness of God.
You can’t see or touch your spirit because it is spirit. Your spirit is the eternal, invisible part of you. However, when you choose to believe what the Word of God says about you, you will begin to know that in Christ Jesus you have everything you ever need or want. His Word is spirit and life (John 6:63 "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.), and as you abide in His Word, you will begin to live more and more from your spirit.
In your spirit, you are right now as you will be throughout all eternity. (1 John 4:17 "Love (Jesus) has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He" (Jesus) "is, so are we in this world".) Praise the Lord! To the degree you renew your mind to this truth and believe it, you will actually experience God’s fullness in this life. Proverbs 23:7 says that whatever you think or believe in your heart is what you are.
Pray the prayer of Ephesians 1:15-23 and let the Holy Spirit reveal “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Col. 1:27).
Prayer For Spiritual Wisdom
Father God Yahweh, in the Mighty Name of Jesus, I take authority and by the Power of the Holy Spirit, I decree, declare, claim, and confess Your Word, as it is written. I yield to Your Spirit to teach, equip, enable, and empower me with Your Word. {continue prayer with Scripture below}. Say "I claim"
Ephesians 1:15-23
15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints (believers),
16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you/me the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,
18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power
20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,
21 far above all principality, power, might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church,
23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
I believe, agree, and receive, in Jesus' Mighty Name. Amen!!!
