RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. IT'S A GLORIOUS LIFE - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD MONDAY, MAY 2ND 2016.
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things
that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath
called us to glory and virtue (2 Peter 1:3).
Christianity isn't a life without challenges, and
oppositions, yet it's a glorious life indeed, because irrespective of the
tests, trials, and persecutions, you're always triumphant. 2 Corinthians 2:14
says, "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in
Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every
place." The Bible says ...we're more than conquerors through Him that
loved us (Romans 8:37).
Therefore, count it all joy when you go through diverse tests
(James 1:2). The Lord has said that when you go through the fire, you shall not
be burnt, neither is there any flood severe enough to drown you (Isaiah 43:2).
You're not an ordinary person. You're a victor every day, and at every count,
and that makes you a "wonder" to the world. David said, "I am as
a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge" (Psalm 71:7).
Some Christians think that living victoriously every day is
some kind of utopia or a farfetched phenomenon; so they say, "Well, let's
live in the real world!" They believe that their problems are more real
than the fantastic "dream life" of the Bible; but they're wrong.
Christianity is a call to the triumphant life; a perpetual walk in victory,
dominion, righteousness, success, progress, peace, joy, health, and prosperity.
This is the heritage of every child of God.
You have authority in Christ Jesus to reign and rule over
the devil and the circumstances of life. Jesus said, "Behold, I give unto
you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the
enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you" (Luke 10:19). He lets you
know that you're indestructible. Nothing, and no one, can hurt or destroy you,
because Christ lives in you! Hallelujah!
CONFESSION
My life is for the glory of God! His beauty, wisdom, grace,
and righteousness are expressed in, and through, me. I'm a wonder to my world.
I'm more than a conqueror, a victor, and a success forever! Greater is He
that's in me than he that's in the World. I'm living the beautiful life in
Christ. Glory to God!
Further Study: || Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed
against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in
judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. ||
|| Romans 8:35-37 Who shall separate us from the love of
Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or
nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed
all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all
these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. ||
