In the book of Revelation we have the consummate revelation of the Divine Trinity for the divine dispensing, and in particular, we see that the consummation of the divine dispensing of the processed Triune God will be a universal marriage – the consummated Triune God as the Spirit and the consummated tripartite man as the bride! Hallelujah!
Amen, Lord, keep us under Your divine dispensing today. Keep us open to Your dispensing. Dispense more of Yourself into us. Dispense Yourself as the Spirit into us. Work Yourself into us. Reconstitute us with Yourself. Oh Lord, transform us, renew us, conform us to Your image, and glorify us to make us the same as You are so that we may be Your bride! Hallelujah, one day the Spirit and the bride will be one to say, Come! Amen!
This week we have been prayerfully considering the matter of Christ as the centre of the processed Triune God, as seen in the Gospel of Matthew. The Gospel of Matthew and all the gospels show us not only how Christ came to fulfil God’s plan and accomplish His redemption.
We see much more than this: we see the Triune God being incarnated in Christ and going through a process, and through death and resurrection, He was consummated to be the life-giving Spirit, the Spirit, to come into our spirit! Hallelujah!
Our God is Triune: He is one yet three, three yet one! We are commissioned to go with the Lord’s authority and preach the gospel, and then we need to baptise people into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Hallelujah, we need to enter into an organic union with the Triune God, and we need to bring many more into this union!
We believers in Christ have been baptised into the processed Triune God. We are baptised not only into Christ or in the Spirit; we are baptised into the processed Triune God, for our God went through a process to become the all-inclusive Spirit to be baptisable! Amen!
In Christ, God went through a process, which was consummated with the Spirit, whom Christ became in His resurrection!
As the Spirit, God can be enjoyed and received by us, and as the Spirit, he is the building and the builded God!
Wow, we can minister the building and builded God to others so that God may build Himself into His people and make them His building, the Body of Christ, consummating in the New Jerusalem!
May we open to the Lord’s daily work of building Himself into us so that we may have God built into us and we would be built into God for the building up of the church, consummating in the New Jerusalem! Amen!
The Consummate Revelation of the Divine Trinity for the Divine Dispensing to Produce the New Jerusalem
In the book of Revelation we have the consummate revelation of the Divine Trinity for the divine dispensing to produce and bring in the New Jerusalem (see Rev. 22:1-2; 7:17a; 21:6b; John 4:14). Wow, Amen!
Our God is a dispensing God. He doesn’t just want to do a work and gain some people to “be on His side”; He wants to dispense Himself with all that He is into man. How can God dispense or impart what He is into us? He had to go through a process first.
God dwells in unapproachable light, and when we see Him, we are obliterated. But in Christ, God went through a process; He was incarnated, He lived a human life, He died on the cross, and He resurrected to become a life-giving Spirit.
In John 4:14 the Lord Jesus told us that He wants to give us living water so that, when we drink of the water He gives us, we will no longer thirst but even more, out of our innermost being would flow rivers of living water. Hallelujah!
The only way He can dispense Himself into us is by being processed and consummated to be the life-imparting Spirit, the Spirit who gives life.
The divine dispensing is God’s imparting of Himself into His chosen and redeemed people as their life, their life supply, and their everything.
When we open to the Lord initially, when we call on His name, we receive the living water into us, and there’s a flow of life within us.
As we keep opening to the Lord to receive His divine dispensing, God imparts Himself into us to be our life, our life supply, and our everything (2 Cor. 13:14). Hallelujah!
In the divine dispensing, the Father is the fountain, the Son is the spring, and the Spirit is the flow.
The Father is the fountain of life, and He springs up and comes forth in the Son, who is the spring, the embodiment of God.
Now the Son is the Spirit of reality, the Spirit of life, and He flows out to us, even flows in us and within us, and He flows out from within us into many others, even flowing into the New Jerusalem! Hallelujah!
John 4:14 is a wonderful yet very mysterious verse, for it shows us that the Triune God who is processed and consummated flows in us, flows within us, flows out of us, and even flows us into eternal life, the totality of which is the New Jerusalem!
The New Jerusalem is the totality of eternal life; in the holy city we see the light of life (God shining in Christ as the lamp), the tree of life growing on both sides of the river of life, and the river of life flowing out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
This is a holy city, and it is a city of life – even the light is of life, for God Himself is embodied in Christ to shine through the walls of the city to the entire universe as the light of life! Praise the Lord!
In the book of Revelation, we have the consummate revelation of the Divine Trinity for the divine dispensing, and this divine dispensing consummates in the New Jerusalem, the city of life!
We believers in Christ need to realise we are persons of life; we are regenerated by God in Christ as the Spirit being dispensed into us, and when we meet others, we need to minister this processed and consummated Triune God to them and baptise them into the processed Triune God to bring them into an organic union with the Triune God.
As we receive, enjoy, and flow out the divine life, which is the processed and consummated Triune God as the Spirit, we are being built up together and we consummate the New Jerusalem! Praise the Lord!
Lord Jesus, we open to Your divine dispensing today. Thank You for coming to us not only to give us things or to do things for us but to dispense Yourself as the Spirit into us. Amen, Lord, dispense more of Yourself into us. We want to simply open to the divine dispensing so that we may receive and enjoy all that God is, all that Christ has accomplished and has, and all that the Spirit is doing and applying. Amen, Lord, may we be open vessels to Your divine dispensing. Dispense more of Yourself into us. May we be filled with You today so that there may be rivers of water of life flowing out of our innermost being! Hallelujah, when we drink the living water that Christ gives us, out of our innermost being shall flow rivers of living waters unto eternal life! Amen, Lord, flow into us, flow within us, and flow out of us as living water! Flow us into the New Jerusalem, the consummation of the divine dispensing! We give ourselves to You to be open to Your divine dispensing today!
The Consummation of the Divine Dispensing of the Processed Triune God will be a Universal Marriage
How good it is for us to be daily in the divine dispensing, simply being open vessels to the continual, fine, constant divine dispensing of the processed and consummated Triune God into us!
As we remain open to the divine dispensing, we grow in life, we are built up together, and anything negative in our being is removed.
In Revelation 22:17, we see the consummation of the divine dispensing of the processed Triune God: the Spirit and the bride. Wow!
The Spirit is the totality and consummation of the processed Triune God, and the bride is the totality and consummation of the transformed tripartite men.
Both God and us are going through a process in order for there to be a universal marriage between the processed and consummated Triune God as the Spirit, and the transformed and glorified tripartite man as the bride.
God and man will be one for eternity, speaking as one, and doing all things as one. Amazing!
The book of Revelation shows us that the consummation of the divine dispensing of the processed Triune God will be a universal marriage (Rev. 19:7-9; 21:2, 9).
On His side, the Triune God went through a process in His economy in Christ in order to become the Spirit for Him to be dispensed into us, His chosen and redeemed people. He is the Bridegroom, and He wants to gain us as His bride.
We, the many believers in Christ, are also going through a process by being redeemed, regenerated, and transformed so that we may be the bride.
The Spirit and the bride say, Come; together, as a couple, in oneness, the Spirit and the bride say, Come.
This is the consummation of what John the Baptist told his disciples in John 3:29, He who has the bride is the bridegroom. Christ is the Bridegroom, and we are His bride; He must increase, and we must decrease (v. 30).
May we be enlightened by the Lord to see that the Spirit and the bride is the consummation of the divine dispensing.
The Spirit becomes one with the bride; this means that the Triune God will “marry” the believers as the bride, for both the Triune God and we as His people have gone through a process to be consummated and be married. Hallelujah!
In verse 17 in Revelation 22 we see two consummations: the Triune God is consummated to be the Spirit, and the tripartite man is consummated to be the bride.
The Triune God has gone through the process of incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension to become the Spirit; now the Spirit is the totality and consumation of the Triune God to be the Bridegroom.
On our side, we believers in Christ are also going through the process of redemption, regeneration, and transformation so that we may be the bride, the consummation of God’s chosen, redeemed, regenerated, and transformed people. Hallelujah!
For eternity, the processed and transformed tripartite man will match the processed and consummated Triune God forever for His full satisfaction and expression (Rev. 19:7-9; 21:2, 9)! Praise the Lord!
The entire Bible speaks of this romance, the divine romance, between God and man. God loved man so much that He was willing to go through a process in His economy in Christ to be the male, the Bridegroom, to court, gain, prepare, and perfect His bride, who is us, the believers in Christ.
When Christ was on the earth as God incarnated to be a man, He was the Bridegroom, and men were attracted to Him.
Now after His death and resurrection, Christ is still the most attractive person, for He is the Bridegroom who draws all His seekers to Himself. Hallelujah!
In Ephesians 5 we see Christ and the church as the bride and the bridegroom, and Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 11:2 that he betrothed the believers to Christ through his ministry.
When we believed into the Lord Jesus, we were engaged to Him, and our entire Christian life is a process of being prepared to be the bride of Christ so that we may match Him for our wedding. Praise the Lord!
Throughout the ages, God has been working to gain a group of overcoming loving seekers of God to make them His bride; He gained a good group in the Old Testament, and now He is seeking to gain us to be His bride.
The consummation of the divine dispensing will be a universal couple, the Spirit and the bride!
This is the final marriage, the marriage of the processed, consummated, and dispensed Triune God with His regenerated and transformed people as the bride! Praise the Lord!
For eternity, this universal couple will be the full manifestation of the Triune God expressed in His glory!
Wow, when we see this, we will simply give ourselves to the Lord to be under His divine dispensing today so that one day we may become the bride of Christ, the aggregate and consummation of the redeemed, transformed, and glorified tripartite men! Hallelujah!
Lord Jesus, we praise You for our glorious destiny: we are to become part of the bride of Christ, the New Jerusalem! Amen, Lord, keep us open to Your divine dispensing today! Dispense Yourself more into us so that we may be renewed, transformed, and conformed to the image of Christ. We love You, Lord, and we open to You as our bridegroom. We allow You to work Yourself into us and to transform us into Your image. Praise the Lord, the Triune God went through the process of incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension to become the Spirit as the Bridegroom! Praise the Lord, we are now going through the process of being redeemed, regenerated, and transformed to be the bride of the Lamb! Amen, Lord, we love You and we open to Your divine dispensing! Make us Your bride. Make us the same as You so that we may be fully one with You for our eternal marriage life! Hallelujah, the consummation of the divine dispensing will be a universal marriage between the Spirit and the bride, the New Jerusalem! Praise the Lord!
