Weekly Pursuit – Week 2 of September
Verses:
John 1:32 “And John testified, saying, I beheld the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He abode upon Him.”
Excerpts:
We may be in any one of three situations. We may be a created man who needs to be regenerated. We may be a regenerated man who is still quite natural and who needs to be transformed. We may be a transformed man who is still separate and individualistic and who needs to be united with others. If we are properly transformed, we will be willing to be united with others. So, first, we need to be regenerated; second, we need to be transformed; and third, we need to be united for the building. The dove, the Spirit, regenerates, transforms, and unites. We are all under the anointing of the dove, the Spirit.
We all are under the process of transformation. God has destined us to be transformed for His building. After creation, incarnation, redemption, and anointing, we have building. This building is for the house of God. God is building a dwelling place for Himself, and He is using transformed people as the stones. Praise the Lord that we are not only undergoing the work of transformation but are also in the process of building. What God needs is not a great number of stones but a house. For eternity God needs a builded house, a Bethel, as His habitation. This building will be the ultimate fulfillment not only of Jacob’s dream but also of God’s eternal plan. It will terminate the bridge of time and usher in the blessed eternity in the future. We must be for that building, and we must be that building! ( Life-study of John, msg. 5)
