THE CONDITION OF YOUR SPIRIT


Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly… (Colossians 3:16).


PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 


If the Lord Jesus were to stand in front of you, how would you react or respond? It may surprise you to know that you’re unlikely to do any of the things you’re probably imagining right now that you’d do. That’s because, in the spirit realm, we respond from our spirits. 


Therefore, if Jesus were to stand in front of you right now, you're going to respond from your spirit, because He’d be appearing to your spirit, and the condition of your spirit is what will be revealed. Consider when Saul (who later became Paul) encountered the Lord Jesus. The Master spoke from heaven to him, and he, falling to the ground and blinded by the glory of the Lord’s radiance, responded by asking, “...Who art thou, Lord?...” (Acts 9:5).


Imagine such a great and mighty voice spoke to him, and all he could say was, “Who are you?” That’s because that was the personality of Saul’s spirit at the time; he was still rowdy, injurious to the Church. That’s who he was. And when the Lord replied, “...I am Jesus whom thou persecutest…” (Acts 9:5), He was relating with the condition of Saul’s spirit.


Later on, the Lord Jesus appeared to him again and told him He would send him far away to the Gentiles, explaining that the people in Jerusalem wouldn’t receive his testimony. Saul argued with the Lord Jesus, insisting that the people knew who he was prior to his conversion, and as a result, they’d believe him. Saul was responding to the Lord based on the condition of his legalistic spirit at the time.


So the question is: What’s your spirit like? Who are you on the inside? That’s what will manifest in your words and in your actions. It’s not about the emotional or superficial reactions of the flesh. Even your emotions are often a result of the condition of your spirit.


It’s one of the reasons you must constantly educate and condition your spirit with the Word of God. When you allow the Word of God to dwell in you richly as it says in Colossians 3:16, your spirit will be rightly conditioned to receive divine guidance, be a sure guide, express the Christ-life, and manifest Kingdom realities. Hallelujah!


PRAYER 


Dear Father, thank you for making me an ambassador for Christ. I declare that my spirit is attuned to your Word, and I respond by faith to your Word always. I represent your Kingdom effectively, proclaiming your truth with boldness and accuracy, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.


FURTHER STUDY


Acts 9:3-6; And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: 4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. 6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.


Acts 22:17-21And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;18 And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me. 19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee: 20 And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him. 21 And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.

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...

🌨️RHAPSODY OF REALITIES🌨️

👤PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc.DD. 🗒️THURSDAY,20 JANUARY 2022🗒️ ⏮️TOPIC: THE KINGDOM WAY OF LIFE  SCRIPTURE 📖 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son (Colossians 1:13) 📍THE MESSAGE📍 When you were born again, you were born into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son. Even though you now live and walk in His presence, you still have to learn how to live in this real Kingdom of Light, and the Scriptures will help you understand this by the power of the Holy Spirit. Paul writing to Timothy said: “But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God…” (1 Timothy 3:15). This means there’s a way to behave oneself in the house of God. Christianity isn’t a way of life, but it has a way of life. In this Kingdom, there’s a language; we have our communication protocols. There’s a way of life; we think differently. This is something the devil doesn’t want many to know. He wants...
