Everyone is striving towards a place of fullness. A place where we feel fulfilled, satisfied and worthy. We want to find that place where we experience more health, finances, success and acceptance because often that is what we believe will bring as happiness. The Bible however tells us a different story:
“to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” (Ephesians 3:19)
Serving the God that we serve, He has all of these things and if he has them, we do. Do you agree?
This means that to be full of God is to be full of health, provision, abundance and success.
But how does one become full of God?
There are lots of opinions out there that try and pin rules down on how to become full of God. For example, you have to fast a number of days, pray a certain way and for a certain amount of hours. And all of that has value, but to be filled with all the fullness of God is not about what you do. It is not even about how much you love Jesus, because the truth is it is not really about you at all, it is all about Him. It is all about knowing the love of Christ! If you know how much God loves you and focus on His love for you that is always big, that has no end, that is constant and ever present; you will be full of Him.
The day when God formed you in your mother’s womb, He designed you to run at optimal level when you are filled with His love. It is like a car that cannot operate at its best unless it is filled with the right kind of petrol. When you begin to understand how much God loves you and you feed on His love for you, instead of being trapped by your own limitations, you will be supernaturally filled with the fullness of God.
What does this mean?
To be full of God is to be full of everything God is to you and has for you. To be full of God is to come to a place of life, satisfaction, worthiness, health, peace, abundance — total wellness.
There is more. When you become aware of how much God loves you and you allow His fullness to take hold of you, God’s blessings will explode in your life as He does exceedingly abundantly above all that you can ask or think, according to the power that works in you. (Ephesians 3:20).
You will become a blessing magnet!
So as God’s beloved, continue to be filled by His love for you and experience Him in every aspect of your life.
