Being Knit Together: A Simple but Profound Word from the Lord
"Focus on My love for you and how I am knitting My body together. As in your mother's womb you were knit, I am knitting My body of believers into a body that will live and move and have their being in Me
"Paul wrote to the Ephesians that My body is joined and fit together. Each joint supplies what is needed for the whole. When each part does its share, the whole body is edified. My love will shine through you to each other and then out to the world covered in gross darkness. The light in My body, when you move as one, will overwhelm the darkness. Do not be afraid! Have I not given My body the keys to the kingdom of heaven - to the house of David?" Selah
My Reflections:
THE BODY of CHRIST
Strong's Concordance G #3196 melos: belonging to the whole, was used in antiquity of instruments of war and implements ("working parts") of a ship; #4983 sóma: member belonging to a whole, physical body, used figuratively of the mystical Body of Christ - the Church, the one people of God),
A number of years ago, the Lord showed me a giant man standing up from the ground that began walking throughout the earth. I saw people swiftly taken up and placed into different parts of the huge man's body as He walked throughout the earth! I was filled with joy when I saw this brief but memorable vision. I knew the Lord was giving me a picture of the church, His beloved ekklesia, being brought together as one body - with Christ as the head. As people were added to the church, the more territory he covered. He walked in the same manner we've heard that the American folk hero, Paul Bunyan, walked - with huge steps. The difference was this man could encompass a whole continent or ocean with one stride!
When the Holy Spirit was speaking about each joint supplying what is needed, I saw this MAN anew. I pondered the giant man and how the people were being placed inside the Body and walked in unity. This is a favorable time (kairos) for the Body of Christ to unite for the sole purpose of building God’s kingdom. This is for all who are willing to walk in the light as He is in the light.
Jesus’s prayer is for us to be AS ONE with Him and with each other as He is with the Father. This is not ‘someday when Jesus returns for the church’ but right now. I am not referring to just adding to our numbers, but very specifically, it is a time to “make disciples” as the Lord instructed in the Great Commission (Matt 28:18-20).
May He find us doing what He has called us to do in His body.
THE WOMB
Strong's Concordance H #990 beten: physical processes are never isolated from the Creator’s sovereign involvement; G #7358 rechem: to conceive, become pregnant; G #1064 gastér: anchors the word in the mystery of the Incarnation.
The first part of Acts 17:28 is often quoted, but I had not put to memory the second part speaking of our being God's offspring. I have never thought about us being knit together in the womb of God, have you?
Scripture references: Ps 139:13; Acts 17:28; Eph 4:16; Rom 12:4-5, 1 Cor 12:12-27, Eph 4:4-6, John 17:21-22; Phil 1:27; Gal 3:28; Is 60:2; John 1:4-5; Matt 16:19; Is 22:22
The Lord referenced another significant word He gave me in 2006 as I received this Jewels. It can be found here. https://thefathersloveim.org/jewels_from_judy_blog/view/2022
