HEAD of the CHURCH

“He (Christ) is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.” 

Colossians 1:18

Christ is the founder of the church: the body of believers. Therefore, He is the rightful HEAD.  And, as a body is lifeless without its head, so the church is lifeless apart from Christ. We may do what we consider to be important work for the church, but if it is done apart from Christ’s Spirit, it is merely human work. Therefore, may we each continually seek to be filled with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18); so that both our individual and corporate deeds flow from Christ’s mind and are done in His power.

Lord Jesus, I praise You, HEAD OF THE CHURCH and life of the body! May my words and actions be an extension of Your heart, strength, and power.
