Full Measure – your Lion Bites word for today

Ephesians 3:19
…and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God

The Spirit of Jesus Christ is given to you to fill you with the full measure of God. He desires that you would be filled full with His glory, with His love, with His grace, with His mercy, with His power, with His wisdom, with His holiness and with His joy.

And yet we ask, ‘Lord, how can we, small and fragile vessels made from the dust, be filled with the vastness of you?’ It can seem like an impossibility, incomprehensible to our understanding.

But Jesus was fully man, yet fully God. He was filled with all the fullness of God and is our example in all things. How He lived on the earth is the model for our life. It’s why He gave us His Spirit – that we may be strengthened with power in our inner being.

Be filled with the full measure of God.
