RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. YOU'RE THE SYMBOL OF PROSPERITY - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD THURSDAY 5TH MAY, 2016
And if ye Christ's, then are ye Abraham's
seed, and heirs according to the promise (Galatians 3:29).
Psalm 1:3 says concerning the one who
delights in the Word and meditates on it day, and night: "And he shall be
like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in
his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
“In the world today, many are confused, not
knowing which way to go. For example, people switch jobs and businesses,
looking for the one that's more "lucrative." As a Christian, you
should be led of the Spirit, because you're the seed of Abraham. Anything you
touch is blessed. Everything you do prospers. Your decisions or choices
shouldn't primarily be motivated by financial factors, but by the wisdom and
guidance of the Holy Spirit. Your success or prosperity is about who you are,
and not about what business or job you do. You carry a blessing. When you step
into a place, things start working! Don't say, "I want to travel to
such-and-such a place, because it's a good place;" no, you're the good
place. You're a delight some land!
You're the symbol of God's blessings wherever
you are, for you're the carrier of His presence and His grace. When you show
up, blessings show up, like Joseph, in the house of Potiphar. The Bible says
Potiphar recognized that the Lord was with Joseph, and that all he did prospered.
Therefore, he placed Joseph in charge of his entire household and estate, and
God blessed him for Joseph's sake (Genesis 39:1-5).
It's your heritage as the seed of Abraham,
not only to be blessed, but also to be a blessing. Those around you-your
friends, colleagues, neighbors, etc.-should notice that because of you, favor
has come to them; there's expansion in their business, and progress in the
entire city.
PRAYER
Dear Lord, I thank you for your wisdom that
guides me, causing me to walk in your perfect will always, prospering in all
that I do. Thank you for the impact of your Word in my life, and the
understanding of the realities of your Kingdom, made possible by your Spirit
that lives in me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for
multitude. 11 The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many
more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)
(Galatians 3:29 KJV) And if ye be Christ’s,
then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
