RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. GOD’S WORD— THE SEED OF DIVINE LIFE - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD. . SATURDAY MAY 21ST, 2016.
Being born again, not of
corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and
abideth forever (1 Peter 1:23).
The Bible declares that Jesus
Christ was born of a virgin. That’s significant because the life of a human being
comes from the man, and not from the woman. Howbeit, the body of a human being
comes from the woman .It therefore something extraordinary for Jesus to be born
of a virgin. Where did His life come from? It came from the Word.
The angel brought words from God
to the Virgin Mary (Luke 1:35). Mary believed and received the Word (the seed of
God), and the Holy Spirit came upon her to conceive the child without the
agency of the seed of man. The Word that God spoke to her formed the seed in
her. The Word of God is the seed of God (Luke 8:11); that’s the seed of divine life,
just as the life of an orange tree is in that little orange seed.
When you receive God’s Word, you
receive the life of whatever it talks about; whatever you’re hearing from God
is the seed to produce in you, or for you, what it talks about. For example,
when we preach and teach divine healing, the hearer receives the seed of
healing and it produces healing and health. Likewise, when we teach God’s Word
on the subject of finances, it produces seed of financial blessings and
miracles. That’s the power of God’s Word!
Christianity is no religion.
Jesus Christ was the Word of God made flesh (John 1:14). We also were born
again by the same seed (Word). That’s what we read in our opening verse. You have the same life as God Himself, because you’re
born of the Word—God's indestructible seed (1 Peter 1:23).
You’re not born of blood, nor of
the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God (John 1:13). This is
what makes your origin divine. 1 John 4:4 says, “Ye are of God, little
children…,” meaning that you hail from God; you’re a partaker of the divine
nature (2 Peter 1:4). Glory to God!
CONFESSION
I’m born of the Word and Spirit of
the Lord, therefore, I’m
impregnable to anything that hurts or binds, because I hail from God! I’ve overcome the devil and his cohorts of darkness, for the greater One dwells in me! I have the nature of God; I’m more than a conqueror; I’m an associate of the God-kind, and I’m living triumphantly every day, through Christ Jesus.
