The Revelation Of The Triune Nature Of God In Us

INTRODUCTION:

Christ came to earth to reveal the Father. When He taught us to pray, He started out with “our Father,” revealing the point that God is our Father also. (Matthew 6:9) But He also expressed that the Father directs our attention to Jesus, whom He sent. (John 6:29) Christ is showing that their relationship was a two-way street. When Jesus was baptized, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him and the Father's voice proclaimed, “You are My beloved Son, in you I am well-pleased.” (Luke 3:22) Thus, we have the third being of God—the Holy Spirit. When Christ sent the Holy Spirit to those gathered during Pentecost, once again He was opening the door for us to know another aspect of God who is available to us. (Acts 2:4)

SHOW NOTES:

• Jesus Christ must be real to us by revelation.


• The Words which Christ spoke were not words from man, but they came from the Father.


• When we seek the wisdom of the Father, He reveals His kind intention toward us.


• Whether we pray to Christ, or our Father, or we ask of the Holy Spirit to lead and teach, we can have the Truth revealed to us.


• The Spirit writes the Word of God on human hearts.


• He makes known the mystery of His will as we earnestly seek Him.

• Jesus said to Peter, “Flesh and blood did not reveal that to you. That was a revelation from My Father.”


• He who has the Son has the Father, and he who does not have the Son, does not have the Father.


• No one knows the Father except the Son, and whomever the Son wills to reveal Him, and no one knows the Son except the Father. It is a back and forth relationship, so precious and so deep that it has to live for us.


• If you started out walking in Christ's footsteps and you continue in those footsteps, each step we take in His footsteps brings us closer to the Father.


• We're following after the pattern of the Son of God, the firstborn Son. We're learning to become sons, and as sons, we should be reflecting and painting this beautiful picture of the Son, Christ Jesus.


• The Father and Christ work together in a oneness that brings all these wonderful things that the Scriptures reveal to us.


• Whether you're speaking to the Holy Spirit, the Lord Jesus Christ, or the Heavenly Father, It's all the triune nature of God.

Matthew 16:15-17

He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” And Jesus said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.”

Matthew 17:2

And He was transfigured before them, and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light.

Ephesians 1:18

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe.

John 14:23

Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make our abode with him.

Ephesians 3:16-17

That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth.

I John 2:24

As for you, let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.

Revelation 3:20

Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him and he with Me.

TAKE AWAY:

As we set our minds on the Spirit, we gain life, increasing in the indwelling of the triune nature of the Father, son and Holy Spirit. With the revelation of the Lord, He brings His presence and abides with us. This becomes the desire of our hearts as we seek to know Him in the many aspects that we find in the Scriptures. Our cry is for His presence and infilling.
