*THE LANGUAGE OF THE HEAVENLY*

_...The inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity_ *(Isaiah 33:24)*

Your words reveal your origin. What you say is the expression of who you are and where you're from. In other words, your speech unveils your nature. If you're born of God, then your language must reflect your heavenly nature and divine origin.

You hail from God. You're born after the second and last Adam, the Lord from heaven; therefore, you're a heavenly being (1 Corinthians 15:47-48). You have a heavenly life, with its own consciousness, its own characteristics, and its own language.

This is where many miss it. They acknowledge they're born again, but their communication doesn't align with their origin. They still speak the language of the earthlings: words of fear, weakness, defeat and limitation. Don't speak like the world because you're not of this world: *"They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world"* (John 17:16). Speak from heaven. 

And what does that mean in practical terms? It means your speech must be consistent with your nature in Christ and aligned with the Word of God. The inhabitants of Zion doesn't speak sickness. That's what the Scripture says: *"The inhabitants shall not say, I am sick."* It's not merely a statement; it's a culture, a consciousness, and a way of life.

There's a language that goes with your nature in Christ. You don't talk lack, you don't talk defeat, and you don't talk fear, because that's not who you are. Your words carry power. They transmit life, strength, health, victory, righteousness and prosperity. Therefore, speak the language of the Kingdom.

Speak like the Master. Speak only what God says. The Bible declares, *"...He hath said...so that we may boldly say..."* (Hebrews 13:5-6). That's the pattern: He says it, and you say the same in agreement. Refuse to speak contrary to your nature. Refuse to align your words with circumstances. You're not governed by what you see or feel; you're governed by the Word. Speak faith-filled, life-giving words. Speak the language of the heavenly.

*PRAYER*

_Dear Father, thank you for the life of Christ in me and for my heavenly nature. I speak in alignment with your Word, and my words are filled with power, life and grace. I speak health, strength, victory and righteousness today. The communication of my faith is effective, producing results that glorify you, in Jesus' Name. Amen._

*FURTHER STUDY:*

*1 Corinthians 15:47-48* The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second man [is] the Lord from heaven. *48* [As is] the earthy, such [are] they also that are earthy: and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] they also that are heavenly.

*Hebrews 13:5-6* [Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. *6* So that we may boldly say, the Lord [is] my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

*Proverbs 18:21* Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

*Mark 11:23* For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

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...
