The Daily Word of Righteousness
The Divine Program, #5
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. (John 15:9)
If it had not been for the rebellion of Eden we would not have been brought to the place of willingness to seek forgiveness through the blood of the cross, deliverance through the power of the Holy Spirit, and finally, release from the bondage of self-will and disobedience through our fellowship with the suffering of the cross.
No human being can please God apart from the righteousness of Christ and the sacrifice of Calvary. No human being can be trusted with the glory assigned to the sons of God apart from a crucified self-life and the formation of a new creation in which his personality and the Personality of Christ have been made one.
No human being can find perfect joy and fulfillment until Christ is abiding in him and the love of Christ is flowing through him to other people.
All of our inheritance as sons of God can be possessed only as we press into abiding in Christ, into God's rest. The history of the wretched circumstances of human beings without God is a principal reason why thoughtful people are willing and desirous to press into the Lamb of God whom God has given to us.
All things of life and history work together for good for those who love God, for those who have been called according to God's purpose.
Every painful episode has as its purpose the driving of us into Christ because it is only in Christ that our high destiny as sons of God can be achieved.
From the beginning the Lord God of Heaven has determined to find rest on earth among the peoples whom He has created from the dust of the ground. Therefore He is forming a living temple. Christ is the chief Cornerstone of God's Temple. We, in whom Christ is being created and is dwelling through the Spirit, are the living stones of the Temple.
God has a plan and is proceeding to carry it out. He knows what He is doing. Nothing catches Him by surprise. God is sovereign in His foreknowledge, His power, His wisdom.
God is building a tabernacle for Himself. When the tabernacle has been completed, He will enter it in His Fullness.
The Tabernacle of God will be situated eternally on a high mountain of the new earth. It is called the Bride of the Lamb, the new Jerusalem. (from The Temple of God)
