Divine Health As His Body

Divine Health As His Body

And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is HIS BODY, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. - Eph 1:22-23 (emphasis added)

The body is the fullness of Christ who fills all in all. It is a mystery for Christ who is complete to be completed by us, who have been made His Body.

When the Bible talks about 'He Himself', it is often referred to Christ's body (sacrifice)

HE HIMSELF took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses. - Matt 8:17 (emphasis added)

HE HIMSELF bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. - 1 Peter 2:24 (emphasis added)

For HE HIMSELF is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, - Eph 2:14-15 (emphasis added)

His body was broken so that our bodies can be made whole. That's only the first part. His body was also broken so that we can become His body to represent Him ----- this is wholeness wholly. We are 'grafted' into Him by filling His Body. Our lives are now hidden with Christ (Col 3:3).

Understanding the first part leads to divine healing. But understanding the second part leads to divine health. We are walking with Him being the HEAD and us being the BODY. We are ONE. The revelation of the Head imparts divine health to the Body. We represent Him not just in the spirit realm, but also the natural realm ---- which includes character, deeds and our physical bodies.

When you walk around the streets, you are not walking as you only. You are walking as Christ ----- His Body.

What a privilege to be His Body and have all things (including all dark minions) under His (our) feet.
