*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL*


 *THE GRACE ADVANTAGE*


*Saturday, November 1st*


Pastor Chris Oyakhilome


Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord (2 Peter 1:2).


No matter how intelligent you are or how hard you work, there’s a dimension to real success and achievement that transcends natural abilities and efforts. It's called grace. Grace arranges and orchestrates life's circumstances in your favour. 


Grace coordinates how things unfold for you, who comes in and out of your world, when they arrive, and for what purpose. It determines how things connect and align; the people, resources, opportunities etc. When you understand this, you become truly humble, realizing that the race isn’t to the swift, nor is the battle to the strong. Wealth is not to one who’s brilliant, neither is favour to the learned, but time and chance happen to them all (Ecclesiastes 9:11 NIV).


The apostles understood this. That's why Paul, John, and Peter often talked about grace. Read their respective epistles; they often began by saying, "Grace be to you…" (2 Corinthians 1:2). 2 John 1:3, "Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father...." Also, "...Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied" (1 Peter 1:2). They knew what grace could accomplish. 


Be conscious of the grace of God. Learn to function by grace and multiply the grace of God in your life. How does grace multiply? Peter tells us that it’s through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord (2 Peter 1:2). You can multiply and increase the dimensions and workings of God’s grace in your life by meditating on the Word and putting it to work in your life. Hallelujah!


                 PRAYER


Dear Father, thank you for the abundance of grace that’s available to me in Christ Jesus. I walk in increased grace, favour and peace, as I grow in the knowledge of your Word. Your grace is actively working in my life, producing supernatural results and aligning all things in my favour. I walk in excellence, fruitfulness and divine success, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

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...

 THURSDAY, JULY 31TH 2025 OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS IN THE MILLENNIUM Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:1-2). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  Our theme scripture is prophetic about the Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are we, the Church, going to be doing then? We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments. Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that characterize the life of the saints wh...
