THE EXCELLENCE OF THE NEW MAN IN CHRIST

THURSDAY, JANUARY 22ND 2026

And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him (Colossians 3:10).

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 

When you were born again, you were recreated in righteousness and true holiness. You’re not a “forgiven sinner” but a brand-new creature, made in the image and likeness of God. Colossians 1:22 describes you as holy, unblameable and unreproveable in the sight of God. In other words, there’s nothing for God to accuse you of or find fault with; He holds absolutely nothing against you. 

Furthermore, this new man thinks, talks, and acts like God. He’s God’s excellent handiwork: “For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]” (Ephesians 2:10 AMPC). 

You’re not trying to be holy or righteous; you were born that way. The more you renew your mind with this truth, the more this divine reality will govern your thoughts and actions and be expressed in your life. You’re not an upgraded version of your old self; that old man has ceased to exist. You now carry the very life and nature of Christ: pure, perfect, sanctified, glorified, and justified. 

This is why you must refuse to accept weakness, failure, defeat or sin as normal. You were created to express the glory and virtues of divinity in your everyday life: “But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, [God’s] own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light” (1 Peter 2:9 AMPC). 

You’ve been called to glory and excellence: “For His divine power has bestowed upon us all things that [are requisite and suited] to life and godliness, through the [full, personal] knowledge of Him who called us by and to His own glory and excellence (virtue)”  (2 Peter 1:3 AMPC). Walk in the consciousness of your new identity. Manifest the beauty, love, wisdom and purity of Christ everywhere. That’s your life. That’s your calling. Glory to God!

                   PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for recreating me in righteousness and true holiness. I live in the consciousness of my new nature. I manifest your excellence, wisdom, purity, love and divine power. My life is a testimony of your grace, righteousness and glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

MONDAY AUGUST 26TH 2024 EXTRICATED FROM DEATH …who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10).  PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Bible records that in ancient times, humans lived for exceptionally long periods with lifespans exceeding 900 years. However, as sin increased, lifespans diminished. Genesis 6:3 says because of sin, man's lifespan was limited to 120 years. Moses, in his psalms, made an observation that due to sin, the typical lifespan of man was seventy years or eighty for those who were stronger. Even in old age, man’s life was filled with toil and sorrow, ultimately ending in death (Psalm 90:8-10). The Lord Jesus, however, came to address the root cause of this limitation, which is sin. Through His sacrifice, He provided salvation from sin and made eternal life possible. Eternal life includes “deathlessness.” When you were born again, you passed from death to life (John 5:24). Recall what we read in our them...

TUESDAY, JULY 1ST 2025 CUSTODIANS OF A MESSAGE THAT WORKS For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Gospel of Jesus Christ that we preach is a message that truly works. It’s a message that produces undeniable results for everyone who believes it. It’s the reason you must be quick and bold to share it with others. I remember talking to a man who had a very severe heart condition. The doctors had diagnosed him with heart failure and said he needed a transplant. But as I shared the Gospel with him, I said, “While I’m talking with you, there’ll be a change in your heart. All you have to do is believe what I’m telling you; just believe and give me a few minutes of your attention.” He agreed. So, I kept talking to him, sharing with him the words of life. After about 15 minutes, I said to him, “It’s done.” And he replied, “Yes; it’s done.” The next test conducted on him ...
