READ RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. HE REIGNS THROUGH YOU - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME. FRIDAY, 3RD JUNE, 2016.
For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17). You were born, predestined, and assigned to reign in this life. Revelation 5:10 says Christ has made us“…kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.” Then interestingly, in 1 Corinthians 15:25, we read that “…he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.” Jesus isn’t physically present in the earth today, yet He’s reigning through those who “receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness.” The only way He reigns is when we reign through righteousness. The understanding of the doctrine of righteousness makes us masters in life. It gives you the sense of dominion, such that nothing moves you; you’re in charge, and in control of circumstances. You make things happen! Righteousness is God’s nature, and that nature was imparted to you when you were born again...
