*MAKE FULL PROOF OF THE LIFE IN YOU*

_But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry_ *(2 Timothy 4:5)*

In 1 Timothy 6:12, Paul, by the Spirit, gave a most remarkable admonition, *“Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life….”* Eternal life is your present-hour possession in Christ Jesus. However, God didn’t give you eternal life for it to remain a doctrine you confess.

Rather, He wants that life manifested in and through you. He wants you to make full proof of the divine life in you. Bring it into evidence. Demonstrate it. Let it be seen in your life. The life you’ve received in Christ isn’t dormant; rather, it responds to your consciousness and your participation. 

Philemon 1:6 says, *“That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.”* Every so often, acknowledge that the life of God is in you. Your consciousness or certainty of it produces boldness; boldness to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, knowing that nothing shall by any means hurt you, just as the Bible says. Your words, your actions, and your responses become the proof that the life in you is real.

The Lord Jesus said, *“And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover”* (Mark 16:17-18). These are some of the proofs or signs that accompany those who have eternal life. 

We’re victors in Christ Jesus, triumphant always, in all things and in every place. The life in you brings healing, deliverance and transformation to those in need. When you speak, things change. When you act, the divine life is manifested. This is your calling: to manifest the life of God so clearly that it becomes undeniable. And as you do, your life becomes a testimony of His power, His nature and His glory. Hallelujah! 

*PRAYER*

_Dear Father, I thank you for the gift of eternal life in me. I make full proof of this life today, expressing your nature, manifesting your power, and walking in dominion over circumstances. My life is a testimony of your glory and righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen._

*FURTHER STUDY:*

*Colossians 1:27* To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

*2 Corinthians 4:10-11* Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. *11* For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

*Galatians 2:20* I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

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...
