WE’RE THE LIMBS OF CHRIST


For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones (Ephesians 5:30).


PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 


This is amazing! The Bible says, “For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.” That means we’re the limbs of Christ; that’s what the word “members” means. Therefore, your legs are Christ's legs; your hands are His hands. You’re inseparably fused as one with Him.


This is the meaning of 1 Corinthians 6:15 where it says, “Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ?...” That's the same thing we read in Ephesians 5:30; it addresses individual members of the Church. In you, Christ is fully represented, expressed and manifested. He walks in you, talks in and through you, works in and through you.


Wherever you are, you’re the “body” of Christ—the limbs of Christ. This should be your daily consciousness. Being born again, you’ve come into union with Christ: that's the biggest thing about our salvation. Not only has your spirit been recreated, you’ve been immersed into Christ; you became literally joined together with Him as one divine creation.


1 Corinthians 12:13 says, “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body…." Now you can understand when the Bible says your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19; 1 Corinthians 3:16). This isn’t a religious talk; it’s the reality of your life. You’re a God-carrying vessel. Divinity is at work in you and revealed in and through you. Give attention to these truths; meditate on them and live accordingly every day.


          CONFESSION


I acknowledge my divine union with Christ; every part of my body functions perfectly, reflecting the life and power of Christ within me. I walk in this consciousness, knowing that Christ is fully represented, expressed and manifested in and through me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

John 15:5;  I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.


Ephesians 1:22-23; And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.


Galatians 2:20;  I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.


1 Corinthians 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

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...

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY   Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us  (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME    When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity.    That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...
