Covered By The Mantle Of Christ!


The Body of Christ is covered by the mantle of Christ's protection, provision, progress, and position. As we walk in obedience to His commands, we will possess all that we need to fulfill our mission here. He will protect His sheep from the wild animals and hirelings. Satan is as a roaring lion seeking to destroy the flock. Jesus will provide every need of the Body to make us strong and resilient. He will move us forward in Him. He will bring the mountains low, lead us through the valleys and make a pathway through the storms of life. He will sustain us in our role because of who He is. He is the Son of God and as children of God, He is our elder brother. We are family and He is and will be all things to us according to our need. Jesus will glory in the victory of the Body of Christ!

2 Chronicles 7:1, “Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house.”

We pray for and sincerely desire that the glory of God rest upon His House. You and I are His house. May His glory fill this house! Ephesians 2:22, “In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.” Solomon had prepared the House for God's habitation and invited God to live there. Let us prepare ourselves and make the Lord of Glory welcome to inhabit this house! 2 Chronicles 6:41, “Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place,..” Solomon spared no expense and the people gave freely and abundantly. The edifice that was created was a tribute to the glory of God and the love of His people. The Message, p. 76, available at Amazon.com.
