Christ stands at the door of your heart today. To this point you are saved by the atoning blood. Also, the Spirit of God is dwelling in you and bringing you ever further into Christ.

Now Christ is asking if you desire to become the eternal habitation of God. Are you ready for Jesus to enter you in His fullness until there no longer is a gap between you and Him?

You have experienced the water to the ankles and to the knees. Do you wish now to enter waters "to the loins," "waters to swim in," a river that cannot be passed over (Ezekiel 47:5)?

Do you desire to be filled with "all the fulness of God" (Ephesians 3:19)?

Give yourself wholly to Christ. Allow Him to enter you. From this point forward seek to find His will instead of attempting to persuade Him to do your will.

While we are at Pentecost, so to speak, we are seeking the Lord and His anointing. When we proceed forward to Tabernacles we continue as before, but we find that now we are progressing into a deeper realm of God—one in which God becomes preeminent and is guiding us more fully. Our goal is to attain perfect and complete rest in God so that it no longer is we who are living but Christ who is living in us.

How marvelous that God, during an era in which man's self-love is nearing its peak, should invite people to become an integral part of Himself, to give their life back to God and become part of God's Life!

Truly, many who are last in time have the opportunity to become first in the Kingdom of God!

To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. (Revelation 3:21)

To sit with Christ in His throne? Is it God who has authorized such a statement as this?

God the Father has exalted Christ to the highest throne of the universe, making Jesus God with Himself:

But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. (Hebrews 1:8)

The Book of Hebrews, when defining man, portrays man as lord over the entire creation of God, and Christ as being representative Man and the Captain over many sons who are to be brought to glory.

But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him? Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. (Hebrews 2:6-8)

To be continued.
