To Dwell in Christ

This being my first post ever, I think I'll start it off on a good note by sharing my enjoyment from the morning revival. 

John 15:4 "Abide in Me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me." 

I always assumed that to abide has the same meaning as to remain, but this week I learned that the Greek word translated 'abide' doesn't only mean to remain but also to dwell.  When we dwell in a home, we live in that home, we have our life in that home and experience that home. According to this we can say to abide in Christ is to dwell in Christ. To dwell in Christ is to take Him as our everything, to have our life and living in Him, to experience Him in the fullest way. How wonderful this is! We can dwell in Christ and He can dwell in us [John15:4]. A mingling of man and God. How marvellous that the Triune God dwells in man to be man's supply, and man can dwell in God to experience Him to the fullest extend. A paragraph out of the morning revival explains this in a sweet way "The first issue of our abiding in Christ is that Christ and God abide in us to dispense Their riches to us, supplying and transfusing their riches into us. If we abide in Christ, He also will abide in us, enabling us to enjoy all the riches of His life." I like this word "transfuse". Transfuse means to pour out of one vessel into another, to cause to be instilled or imparted, to diffuse through, permeate. When Christ and God dwells in us we are being filled, saturated, permeated, with Their riches! This is wonderful! 

Lord Jesus! Saturate and Permeate us with nothing else but You.
