1 John 1:3 – “that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.”
We are reminded that the work of salvation is the operation of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in our lives. God the Son is our Mediator and Savior who gave Himself up to death for us. It is all possible because God the Father loves us and has chosen to save us by His grace. It is through the Spirit of God that we cry, “Abba! Father!” “Father, dear Father!”
Hence we are united to the LORD God in the bonds of the Holy Spirit. The bond of union is, of course, Jesus Christ through whom we became a member of the family of God. “The fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.” He gives to the Christian a sense of belongingness with the LORD God. We are united in one Body. The Holy Spirit has placed the believing sinner in the Body of Christ.
God redeemed us from the curse of the law that we might receive the promise of the Spirit whereby we are in a koinonia fellowship in God’s kingdom and work. We are joint partakers of the Holy Spirit. What an awesome fellowship we have with the LORD God. Jesus prayed, “I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are”.(John 17:11).
It’s a brand new day! Keep enjoying Kharis!
