FULFILMENT IN JESUS
“Then they asked Him, "Where is Your Father?" "You know neither me nor My Father," Jesus answered. "If you knew me, you would also know My Father."
John 8:19 (HCSB)
Main Text:
This deep desire from the Father is fulfilled in Jesus. It’s through Him that we can get to know the Father personally. We’ve been invited to know Jesus and by extension Abba Father! What a privilege! The Lord has so much to offer you in a relationship with Himself than anything we could possibly obtain or acquire outside of Him.
There is nothing quite like knowing Jesus. When you become a Christian, Jesus bonds spiritually with you. He comes into you and you enter into Him. As you get to know Him better daily, you draw closer and find life more and more fulfilling and rich. When it comes to finding fulfillment, don’t try to find fulfillment in a religion, rather than a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
You are never going to find fulfillment in another place or another person. You’re not going to find it in a certain position or status and you’re not going to find it in a church or organization. It is in Christ and Christ alone that you will find true and everlasting fulfillment that never wanes.
Prayer
Father in the name of Jesus, I surrender to you and ask that you reveal yourself to me in ways unimaginable.

Ps 145:15-16(MSG) “All eyes are on you, expectant; you give them their meals on time. Generous to a fault, you lavish your favor on all creatures.”
Matt 11:27 (MSG) “Jesus resumed talking to the people, but now tenderly.”The Father has given me all these things to do and say. This is a unique Father-Son operation, coming out of Father and Son intimacies and knowledge. No one knows the Son the way the Father does, nor the Father the way the Son does. But I'm not keeping it to myself; I'm ready to go over it line by line with anyone willing to listen.”
