IT’S IMPORTANT TO KNOW AND USE WHAT YOU’VE GOT IN CHRIST

👤 PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME DSC.DD

*1 John 5:11 NIV “And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.”*

Moses and the Israelites were in a quagmire before the Red Sea, and in panic, they cried out to God for help. The Lord, however, responded to Moses in a most amazing manner: “…Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground” (Exodus 14:15-16 NIV). The Lord was making Moses aware that the help he required was already with him. In other words, “Moses, use what you have!”

In our wonderful journey of faith, God expects us to have a life of continual victory and prosperity; and all that’s required is for you to use what you have. As a Christian, you have treasures resident in your spirit (2 Corinthians 4:7). One of such treasures is eternal life. Jesus said, “...He who believes in Me has everlasting life” (John 6:47). Everlasting life here refers to the incorruptible life of God in your spirit. Use this life in you against any health challenge that may be trying to find a place in your body. Declare, “I refuse to accommodate any sickness, disease or pain in my body because I have the life of God in me!”

Another thing you have is righteousness from the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:21, Philippians 3:9), so when the devil tries to weaken your faith by making you feel unrighteous, you ought to say to him: “I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus! Get out, in Jesus’ Name!” If he tries to make you feel you’ve got a problem loving others, declare: “The love of God has been poured out within my heart through the Holy Spirit who was given to me” (Romans 5:5). You’re a manifestation of God’s love, and it radiates through you. Think this way about yourself; speak and live accordingly. It’s so important to know what you have in Christ, and the way to know is from the Word of God. Learn more about what you have in Christ and confess it.

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 ...
