How To Receive From The Fullness of God and Not From The Fullness of Man

Dear People of God,
I will like to share with you all on how to receive from the fullness of God and not from the fullness of man. This is also another revelation I got from the Holy Spirit while reading the book of John chapter 1 and I will like you all to also be a partaker of this blessing.
looking at John 1: 16, (KJV) "And of His fullness have all we received, and grace for grace".
Paul speaking in Ephesians 3:8 says "I am less than the least of all God's people; yet God gave me this privilege of taking to the gentiles the Good news about the infinite riches of Christ".

First, lets look at the meaning of the fullness of God. we can see that there is "fullness" and then "riches" as used in Ephesians 3:8. we must never think that fullness could mean the same thing as riches. As I kept on meditating on this verse, the Holy spirit helped me to understand that riches is just a subset of fullness. riches is only a single part of fullness, as broad as riches might sound.
Fullness of God is the expression of the riches of all that God is. I said EXPRESSION and I said ALL. That is to say that there are many riches in God, each of them are infinite but all of them make up the fullness of God, and we must note that without the fullness, there cannot be an expression. one can be said to be full when one can express what he/she is full of.

take for example, you have to be full of Alcohol in order to act in the influence of alcohol, you have to be full of weed in order to act in the influence of it and you will agree with me that when someone is drunk from his/her expression, you would know. it is something that cannot be hidden because that person is FULL of alcohol, so there is no how you can be FULL of GOD and people will not see the fullness of God in you.
the fullness of God is no respecter to your career or business even if you specialize in selling water on the streets or food, the Bible said "and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper" Psalm 1:3b

Now quickly lets look at some of the ways we can be FULL OF GOD
  1. we must receive and have Christ in our hearts, Colossians 1:18-19. Paul speaking about Christ said "And He is the head of the body, the Church: who is the beginning, the first born from the dead; that is in all things He might have the preeminence - for it pleased the father that IN HIM SHALL ALL FULLNESS DWELL. All fullness dwell in Jesus, you cannot boycott Him. Remember in John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by Me. so if you want to receive the fullness of God, First you must be born again by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Personal Savior.
  2. Secondly, we must be filled with the love of God, see what Apostle Paul wrote in Ephesians 3:19, "And to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God. you cannot be an expression of what you don't love. ask the drunkard, they will tell you how addicted they are to alcohol, they can give 3 hour lecture on the importance of alcohol and how deep they love it, same thing with those that smoke weed, they love it, they crave for it. So how can you say you have the fullness of God in you without having the craving for Him, without loving Him, without being addicted to Him and everything that concerns Him??? My Dear loved ones, it cannot be possible, you are either in or out, there is no lukewarm when it comes to the Kingdom of God. You must decide today to love God endlessly, it starts with the decision then the Holy Spirit will empower you through it because as the Lord said in Zechariah 4:6b, "it is not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord of hosts"
  3. Lastly, we must be full with the Word of God. the word of God is the seed that determines how much of the Fullness of God that showcases in your life. it determines how much of the fullness of God you receive. How do I know this?  Luke 8:11-15, Jesus while explaining the Parable of the Sower, in Verse 11 He said, "This is what the parable means: The SEED IS THE WORD OF GOD" and in Luke 8:8a in the Parable itself, Jesus said, "and some seeds fell in good soil; the plants grew and bore again, one hundred grains each". You will agree with me that a seed if planted can yield tremendous fruits, for example there is this mango tree in my hometown when it was planted it was just a seed put in the soil but then it keeps yielding fruit in it's season, many years now it is still waxing strong and producing fruits. 
can I tell you something, if you want to be great, eat the word of God, if you want to be greater, consume more of the Word of God, if you want to have infinite greatness, then consume the infinite Word of God. the capacity you consume is what determines the amount of grain of greatness your life will show forth. don't say you don't have the time, your colleagues that are drunkards, always have the time in their busy schedule to drink and get drunk, same with those who smoke weeds, what about your colleagues that are prostitutes, they always have time in their schedule to go about satisfying their thirst for lust, WHAT YOU LOVE, YOU HAVE TIME FOR! 

First things First, right now if you are not saved, you are not safe, if you are not sure, then you are not saved. if you would like to give your life to Christ, say this prayer and mean it,
"
Lord Jesus, I have come to You today, I accept that I am a sinner and I confess my sins and repent from them. I believe that You died on the cross of Calvary for my sins. Thank You for forgiving me. today I am saved, I am born again. thank You Jesus".
if you said this prayer congratulations, you are now a child of God begin now to believe and enjoy your inheritance in Christ but remember as far as your eyes can see, God will give you, Gen 13:15. Be Blessed.
