Eph. 3.10

“To the intent that now onto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God”
(Eph. 3.10).
The most wonderful day for David was when God committed to him in detail the whole pattern for the temple (I Chron 28.19). God could not have revealed this to him at the beginning of his life. God had to wait for David to grow spiritually before He could give him this revelation. Many people today speak of ‘the church’ or ‘the Body of Christ’ very freely, but very few understand God’s true thought for the church. In spite of their ‘spiritual’ talk many show by the strife and jealousy in their lives that they do not really know that which they profess to know. The purpose of God is to reveal His power and wisdom to principalities and powers in heavenly places as it is expressed in the fellowship of the church.
