The Divine Oneness – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional February 10th

(You And The Lord Make One Inseparable Being)

TO THE BIBLE: Ephesians 5:30
“For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones.”

LET’S TALK
In John 15:5, Jesus said, “I am the vine; you are the branches…” (NIV). That’s a description of oneness; the same message communicated in our theme verse. The word “members” in our opening verse is the Greek “melos” and it means “limbs” like you have your hands and legs; we’re the limbs of His body!

1 Corinthians 6:15 NIV breaks it down even further. It says, “Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself?…” This is referring to the Church; it means your very legs are Jesus’ legs! Your hands are His hands; your body is the physical extension of Christ in the world.

An understanding of this will give you a new mindset about who you really are. You couldn’t be one with Him and be sickly. You couldn’t be one with Him and have failed organs. His life in you perfects you through and through.

The same message is detailed in 1 Corinthians 12:27 NIV: ”Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.” That means you’re a definite, describable member, and you occupy a recognizable place in the body of Christ. This is extraordinary!

Moreover, he says, “…He who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him” (1 Corinthians 6:17).
This means that Christ has a right over your body and you have a right to His body. But since His body is in heaven, Paul says if you’re joined to the Lord, you’re one spirit, because through the Spirit, you can make available to your body the glories of His resurrected body. Hallelujah!

Now you can better understand when the Bible says, “…Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27). Live every day with the consciousness of your oneness with Jesus Christ.

John 14:16-17; John 14:20; John 17:20-21

Speak:
I’m a member of His body, of His flesh and of His bones! I walk in the consciousness that I’m in divine oneness with Jesus Christ. And through the spirit, I make available to my body the glories of His resurrected body. No sickness, disease or infirmity can thrive in my body, because I’m joined to the Lord and one spirit with Him. Divinity is at work in me. Glory to God!
