*FELLOWSHIP WITH THE SPIRIT*

_For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God_ *(Romans 8:14)*

In our previous study, we made a very important point, which is the fact that the most important thing for anyone to do in this world is to discover God’s purpose and fulfil it. But sometimes, there are those who are already in the line of their calling in life, yet they don’t even know God chose them for it. They may not have enough understanding concerning God’s purpose for their lives, but they simply continue on the course life has presented to them. 

To a certain extent, that may help, because they’re at least moving in a direction connected to their destiny. But in the journey of life, there’ll always be adversaries and adversities. The challenge is this: when obstacles arise, if you’re not connected with the One who knows what must be done to move beyond that point, your journey could be truncated. 

The unexpected events of life could derail or even destroy what seemed to be a promising path. Not because you weren’t gifted, capable, or called but because you never truly discovered from the One who planned your life what His full purpose was and how to fulfil it completely. 

This is why fellowship with the Holy Spirit is indispensable. No matter how successful your journey may appear outwardly, there’s a higher calling, a greater purpose, and a divine pattern that only the Spirit of God can unveil to you. He created you. He knows why you’re here. He knows the full extent of your calling and how to fulfil it to His glory and for His pleasure. 

The Bible says in Revelation 4:11 that all things were created for His pleasure. We don’t live for ourselves; we live for Him. This consciousness gives meaning to your life and clarity to your pursuits. It helps you realize how much you need the Holy Spirit. When you walk in fellowship with the Holy Spirit, you receive divine direction, wisdom, strength and grace to fulfil your calling joyfully and victoriously.

Therefore, cultivate fellowship with the Spirit through studying the Word, prayer, and yieldedness to His guidance. Always tell Him how much you love Him and rely on His person, power and glory within you to put you over in all things. Hallelujah!

*PRAYER*

_Dear Father, thank you for the blessing and ministry of the Holy Spirit who guides me in the path of your perfect will. My life fulfils your pleasure and brings glory to your Name today as I rely on the Holy Spirit, His power and glory within me, to put me over in all things, in Jesus’ Name. Amen._

*FURTHER STUDY:*

*Ephesians 2:10* For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

*Proverbs 3:5-6* Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. *6* In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

*Revelation 4:11* Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

*2 Corinthians 13:14 NIV* May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

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...
