THE WORD EXPRESSED IN YOU

But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God (2 Corinthians 4:2).

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD.

There’s a difference between telling the truth and the manifestation of the truth. Our opening scripture isn’t talking about merely being truthful about a matter or subject; rather, it’s about living the Word, for the Word is truth (John 17:17).

The manifestation of truth, therefore, is the manifestation of the Word, the Word expressed in and through you. It’s when your life becomes a living Bible, so much so that others can literally read the Word of God in you. That’s Christianity! It’s life in the Word, by the Word and through the Word.

We’re the offspring of the Word. 1 Peter 1:23 says, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” You’re born of the Word and therefore are called to express the Word. Your life is the unveiling of the Word of God. James 1:18 says, “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.”

This should further help you understand why the Spirit, through the Apostle Paul, declares that we’re the epistles of Christ: “Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart” (2 Corinthians 3:3).

Every step the Lord Jesus took when He walked the earth was the Word of God in action. He’s the living, active, incarnate Word: “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us…” (John 1:14). 1 John 4:17 says, “…as he is, so are we in this world.” You’re the Word alive today, walking, talking and blessing lives. Have this consciousness. Live the life God has called you to live: the manifestation of the truth.

PRAYER 

Dear Father, I thank you that your Word lives in me and is expressed through me. My life is a manifestation of truth, a living epistle read by men. I walk in the consciousness that I am the Word alive today, bringing blessing, illumination and righteousness to all in my world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
