GLIMPSE

“For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known” ( 1 Cor 13:12, NIV).

When we look at the written Word and realize that the Word is living and active and that Jesus is The Word become flesh, as we study The Word and meditate on the Word, we are being transformed into becoming more Christ-like; The Living Word Jesus, manifests, becoming flesh in and through our lives. In other words, His nature manifests Himself through the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives as we are being transformed by meditating on the living Word.

We only catch a “glimpse” of what is to come as we look into the mirror of the Word and drink the Living water.

He is the living Word: The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. (John 1:14, NIV)

He is the living water. “…but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:14, NIV).

When we behold ourselves, our reflections, in the light, “the mirror”, of The Word we see ourselves as God intended.

The Word is a mirror: “And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit” (2 Cor 3:18, NIV).

The Word washes and cleanses us, His bride, and says that rivers of living waters will flow from us, that is His Holy Spirit flowing through us.

“…so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,” (Eph 5:26, NIV).

“…Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” (John 7:38, NIV).

I invite you to deep-dive into His Word and draw close to Him and He will draw close to you.

“Draw near to God and He will draw near to you…” (James 4:8, NIV).

Once you’ve caught a “glimpse” you’ll never thirst again, but you’ll always be hungry for more…I wonder if you see what I see,…a piece of heaven, a “glimpse” of dare I say “heaven” behind the water curtain. Look deeper,… look inside the waterfall, beyond the natural,…dare to see,… deep dive with me.
