Filled with Him

We can have knowledge of the Word of God, we can have knowledge of the grace of Christ, but unless I receive it by my will being submitted to God, my experience will be filled with something other than Him.

Oh how serious is it for us all to be taught properly. We must be able to hear properly to have properly formed thoughts through sound words to be able to function in dependence on Christ. We all need to remember that dependence on Christ creates intimacy with Christ. Lack of intimacy effects my relationship with God and has a negative effect on every other person that I have some kind of relationship with.

Dependence and intimacy in Christ's love for us keeps out all the evil and negativity on the outside from entering in.When truth in us is challenged, buy the truth don't sell it for anything that amounts to nothing outside of Christ.

Don't miss the truth in your experience by selling it because of atmospheric questions and being occupied with those foolish questions and not the truth. Ah, the peace that His love for us brings into our experience. His love doesn't take us out of troubles, like foolish false philosophy tells us that we can do it and escape it.

His love, His Christ is greater because He takes us not out of it, but right through it. Yes, above it, living in the reality of His love that has conquered every single thing that trouble would seek to invade us by entering in. Yes, to know the love of Christ, which passes just knowing that He loves us (and of course this knowledge is extremely valuable), but fills my every experience of all the fulness of God. Now we're full of Him with no room in our hearts for anything else.
