*THE REPLICA OF THE GODHEAD*

_(Jesus Is The Express Image Of The Father)_

*TO THE BIBLE:*
*John 14:8-9*
_“Philip said to Him, ‘Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, “Show us the Father”?”_ 

*LET’S TALK*

The Bible says that in Jesus dwells the fullness of the Godhead in bodily form, meaning anyone who wants to know what God looks like should look at Jesus. No wonder He said to Philip, *“he who has seen Me has seen the Father.”* Jesus is the express image of the Father’s Person; He is the effulgence of His glory. The Bible says it pleased the Father that in Him (Jesus) should all fullness dwell (Colossians 1:19).

No wonder He said in John 10:30, *”I and My Father are one.”* When He said this, the Jews picked up stones and wanted to stone Him. Why? They said, *”...for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.”* The Jews understood the import of what Jesus meant when he said, *“I and My Father are one,”* but they considered His words blasphemous because they didn’t know who Jesus was. Jesus is one with the Father; He is the complete embodiment of Deity.

So, if you’ve ever wondered whether God is distant or difficult, study Jesus. Watch how He treated people. Study the Word. When you see Jesus, you won’t need to look for the Father and the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the perfect image and replica of the Godhead. He’s the expression of God’s glory, and by inheritance, not only has He obtained a more excellent name in all of heaven and earth, but the Father has crowned Him with all glory, honour and majesty. He’s the Monarch of the universe, and He’s also your best friend. He’s the express image of the Father’s person.

*GO DEEPER*

*Hebrews 1:1-3* God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, *2* Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; *3* Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

*PRAY*

_Dear Lord Jesus, I ascribe to you all glory, honour and majesty. You’re the King of glory, the joy of heaven, and the bright morning star! You’re the effulgence of God’s glory, the beauty of divinity, and the perfect expression of the Father’s person. I worship and adore you, precious saviour, for there’s none like you! May your kingdom reign in the earth and be established forever in the hearts of all men. Amen._

*DAILY BIBLE READING*

*ONE YEAR*
Romans 2, Psalms 38-41

*TWO YEAR*
Luke 11:27-36, Judges 1

*ACT*
Study one story about Jesus today in the Book of Mark and note how He revealed the Father’s heart. Let that example guide one attitude or action of yours.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 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...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

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...
