BOUGHT WITH A PRICE! (You’re No Longer Your Own)

TO THE BIBLE:

1 Corinthians 6:20

“For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

LET’S TALK

Have you ever saved up money to buy something you really desired? Maybe you even had to forgo some other nice things you liked and could have bought, just because you were determined to get that one thing that was so precious to you. And when the day came, and you purchased that item, you were filled with every sense of joy and fulfilment in your heart, knowing that what you’d always wanted to have had now become yours. That’s exactly how God felt when Jesus Christ, His Son, paid for you with His blood!

If you’re born again, you don’t own yourself; “...you are not your own” (1 Corinthians 6:19). God paid the highest price for you, and that is the blood of His Son Jesus. Therefore, as the Bible says, you should glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are His. This means you ought to serve Him diligently, and submit yourself to His Lordship. Understand that God knows how to take care of His own. Since you belong to Him, it’s His responsibility to protect, keep, bless, help, promote and provide for you.

This understanding inspired David’s words in Psalm 23:1-3, where he declared, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1). David understood that he shouldn’t lack any good thing because God was his bread provider. If you wouldn’t let your pet at home go hungry, don’t you think God would do much more for the one He loves so much that He sent His Son to die for? Meditate on the fact that you’re God’s property today, and you’ll no longer despair or be frustrated in your life.

PRAY

Heavenly Father, you’re my life and in you, I live, move and have my being. I rejoice that I belong to a caring and loving Father as you, and I declare that Christ is glorified in me—spirit, soul and body—as I commit myself to only doing things that bring you honour and glory.

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 ...
