• *UNDERSTAND LOVE FROM GOD'S PERSPECTIVE*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *SUNDAY, 22ND DECEMBER 2024*

    _*And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God (Ephesians 3:19).*_

    I like the fact that at Christmas time many profess love; they say it's a season to love one another. But most only assume to know what love is, whereas they really don't. What most have experienced and understood is tolerance, not love. Tolerance is your ability to bear with others; it's a good thing, but it shouldn't be confused as love. That you tolerate people doesn't mean you love them.

    Even the Jews had difficulty understanding love. The Jewish mind was complex, and one of the ways God could get their attention was to give them the golden rule: _*"Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: l am the LORD"*_ (Leviticus 19:18). He said to them, "Love your neighbour as yourself." But how could a man love his neighbour as himself when even he isn't conscious of loving himself?

    This wasn't God's best delineation of love, but He had to work with them from the "outside." So, He said to them, "Do unto others as you want them to do to you" (Matthew 7:12, Luke 6:31). After a while, they began to abuse this. A man could take another's wife and say, "l don't mind if you do the same to me. Take my rude wife."

    But when Jesus came, He manifested God's love in a way that was different. He said, _*"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends"*_ (John 15:13). He showed them love from God's perspective, and not only did He preach this love, He proved it. You can't show or manifest true love if you don't know Jesus.

    When you hear someone say, "l can't please you and displease myself," such a person is quoting from the Old Testament. But Jesus says no; it's not about pleasing yourself; it's about laying down your life for others. It's about making others happy even at the expense of your own feelings. There's no greater love than this. Your understanding of this will completely change your life and your commitment to Jesus Christ, and to those for whom He died.

    *CONFESSION*
    *By the Spirit, I have an understanding of the dimensions of God's love. I'm filled with the love of Christ, which surpasses all knowledge. I love others as Christ has loved me; my actions are motivated by genuine love, and I serve others with joy and compassion, following the example of the Lord Jesus. Hallelujah!*

    *FURTHER STUDY:*
    *||* *1 John 4:7-10* Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins. *||*

    *||* *Romans 12:10* [Be] kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; *||*

    *||* *1 Corinthians 13:4-5 NIV* Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. *||*

  • *ETERNAL LIFE DEFINED*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *SATURDAY, 21ST DECEMBER 2024*

    _*That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life (John 3:15).*_

    Imagine preaching the Gospel to someone and the person asks you, "What is eternal life?" What will you say? I'll give you two simple statements that'll help you understand what it is. The first one is that eternal life is the life and nature of God. This in itself isn't a definition but an expression that describes what kind of life it is. Eternal life is a life that's different from other kinds of life; it's the life and nature of God.

    As a definition, eternal life is the organic and existential attributes of deity. Why is this important? It's because all over the world, people talk about different gods. There're so many deities in different cultures represented in so many ways. But none of them has eternal life.

    Eternal life is the life that Jesus, in Scripture, declared the Father has, which essentially distinguishes Him from all others that may be called gods: _*"For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself"*_ (John 5:26). The Bible declares, _*"...And now we are in God because we are in JESUS CHRIST HIS SON, WHO IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD: AND HE IS ETERNAL LIFE"*_ (1 John 5:20 TLB). Jesus Christ is God! In Him, we find and can relate with the organic and existential attributes of deity.

    When He walked the earth, He was life encapsulated in a human body and manifested to us: _*"For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us"*_ (1 John 1:2).

    This eternal life is what He brought to the world (John 10:10). This is the message of the Kingdom of God: that Jesus Christ offers eternal life freely. That's why it's called Gospel; you don't have to pay anything for it.

    *CONFESSION*
    *I rejoice in knowing that I have the life and nature of God in me—the organic and existential attributes of deity. This divine life sets me apart and empowers me to live victoriously. I walk in the consciousness of this incorruptible, impregnable and invincible life in me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *FURTHER STUDY:*
    *||* *John 17:3* And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. *||*

    *||* *1 John 5:11-13* And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; [and] he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. *||*

    *||* *1 John 5:20* And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, [even] in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. *||*

  • *YOU KNOW HIM*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *FRIDAY, 20TH DECEMBER 2024*

    _*You know the way to the place where I am going. Thomas said to him, Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way? (John 14:4-5 NIV).*_

    The Lord Jesus, just before His crucifixion, had a meeting with His disciples where He told them He would be going away to Heaven. They were saddened by the news, but Jesus comforted them, saying, _*"...l go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going"*_ (John 14:3-4 NIV).

    Notice His language: always succinct, always positive. It shows you the Master's mentality. He said, "You know the way to the place where I am going." But Thomas, who was thinking in the flesh, said, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?" Jesus' response to him was profound. He said, _*"...l am the way, the truth, and the life..."*_ (John 14:6). What an answer!

    Jesus was speaking by the Spirit, and His answer probably made Thomas more confused because Thomas was reasoning in the flesh. Then Jesus said in the next verse, _*"If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him"*_ (John 14:7). Remarkable!

    Notice that Jesus didn't say, "Okay, Thomas, from henceforth, I'm going to try to introduce the Father to you"; no! Rather, He said, "You know Him." This is the way He wants you to think. He doesn't want you arguing and declaring your lack of knowledge. Respond in the spirit. The Bible says you have an unction from the Holy One and you know all things (1 John 2:20). Hallelujah!

    The Lord has said you know the Father; therefore say, "Yes sir! I know Him." Blessed be God! When you agree and affirm the Word like that, suddenly, the knowledge of God will well up in your spirit, and you'll discover the truth. Remember, He is the way, the truth, and the life. What He tells you is truth. If He says you know Him, that's the truth. Moreover, He also said it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom (Mathew 13:11, Luke 8:10), and that includes knowing the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!

    *PRAYER*
    *I thank you Father, for you've revealed yourself to me in the Lord Jesus and by your Spirit. I declare with confidence that I know you, and I walk in that truth always. This knowledge transforms my life, my language and interactions. I walk as a victor, and your grace in my life is multiplied as a result of my knowledge of you, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *FURTHER STUDY:*
    *||* *John 14:16-17* And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. *||*

    *||* *John 17:3* And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. *||*

    *||* *1 John 2:13* I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. *||*

    *||* *Jeremiah 9:24* But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I [am] the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these [things] I delight, saith the LORD. *||*

  • Humans are quick to joke about death with a casual, “Something must kill a man,”

    Some of you have made up your mind to eat anything this December.

    You have already bragged that this December is gonna be detty.

    ”After all, this celebration only comes once a year”

    So, you decided to ditch your nutritionist's advice and follow your stomach.

    Hmmmmmm

    Detty December.

    You won't understand until you walk into a hospital with an unbearable headache or crippling stomach problems.

    And after all the laboratory investigation, it was said that you have diabetes and you’ll need to take these medications for life.

    Or your doctor ended up diagnosing you for gastritis and you are given medication kits before you understand that the Detty December has finally stained your white

    In that moment, reality hits hard.

    Your savings will vanish before your eyes, your mind will spiral into depression, and your life may become a constant struggle.

    It’s then that you realize your most valuable asset isn’t your car, your job, investment or even your house—it’s your health.

    Go to any hospital today, and you’ll find patients united in one prayer.

    They all pray for sound health and here you are planning to eat unhealthy food in the name of the festive period.

    I pity you.

    Oh, that was harsh, right?

    I am not sorry.

    Pastor Chris

    What confidence Jesus had,
    to
    state
    that
    God
    had
    given Him power
    over
    all
    flesh
    to
    give
    them
    eternal life. This means Jesus is the One who gives eternal life. If He’s the Lord of your life, you have eternal life in you because He gives eternal life to all those over whom He’s Lord.

    You can only know and understand life when you know the source of life, and that’s Jesus Christ. The next verse says, “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent” (John 17:3). Notice how Jesus classifies Himself here with God because He is Himself God. He didn't say, “that they might know thee, the only true God,” and stop there. He said “and Jesus Christ”; meaning you’ve got to know God and you’ve got to know Jesus Christ. You can't have one without the other.

    Jesus is eternal life; that’s the reason He can give it. So, if you don't know Him, you can’t know life. The Bible says, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:23). Again, we see that God gives eternal life through Jesus Christ.

    This truth gets even clearer in 1 John 5:11-12, which says, “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” He says, “…this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life….” Observe the tenses. It doesn’t say if you have the Son, God will give you life. Rather, it
    says, “If you have the Son, you have life.” That’s the same thing Jesus said in John 6:47: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” Glory to His Name forever!

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, I thank you for the eternal life that I have received through Jesus Christ. I rejoice that I have your life and nature in me, making me more than a conqueror. I walk in the consciousness of this divine life, and I manifest your glory, love and power as I share this truth with others, in Jesus' Name. Amen. ||*

  • *LIFE AND IMMORTALITY UNVEILED*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *THURSDAY, 12TH DECEMBER 2024*

    _*But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10).*_

    What we just read in our opening scripture is extraordinary. There's no better way to explain it than how it's already stated. The message is very clear: Christ has abolished death and has brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel. The Church has to come to the knowledge and profundity of this truth.

    Now that you're born again, you've passed from death to life; you're in the place of immortality—deathlessness: _*"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life"*_ (John 5:24). You have the transcendent life—the overcoming life that makes you superior to Satan, darkness, disease, sickness, failure, defeat, and death.

    Now, if this is true, and thank God it is, why are there still so many in the Church today struggling with their health and being buffeted by the elements of this world? The reason is their lack of understanding, consciousness and knowledge of this truth. God said in Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for their lack of knowledge."

    It brings to mind the lamentation of the psalmist, Asaph in Psalm 82:5-7, _*"They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes."*_ How sad! Being born again, you're a god because you're born of God; therefore, you have the God-life! That life isn't subject to sickness; it's death-proof and disease-proof! This is the truth, and unless you accept this reality, you'll never live it.

    This is what Jesus came to accomplish for us, and He fulfilled it. He "finished" the work. On the Cross, before He died, He said, "It is finished"; in other words, mission accomplished; death is abolished; life and immortality are now unveiled! The Bible says, _*"But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God"*_ (Hebrews 10:12). Glory to God!

    He made life and immortality available through the Gospel and sat down at the right hand of God. Now the Bible says whosoever believes in Him has everlasting life (John 3:16). Having believed, you have life and immortality. Blessed be God!

    *CONFESSION*
    *I was born into the realm of life and immortality; I have passed from death to life. I have the transcendent life—the overcoming life—that makes me superior to Satan, darkness, disease, sickness, failure, defeat and death: a life that's beyond this world! I reign gloriously over circumstances and live triumphantly every day, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *FURTHER STUDY:*
    *||* *John 11:25-26* Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? *||*

    *||* *Romans 8:10-11* And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. *||*

    *||* *1 Corinthians 15:53-57* For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy victory? 56 The sting of death [is] sin; and the strength of sin [is] the law. 57 But thanks [be] to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. *||*

  • *GOD'S TESTIMONY: YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *SUNDAY, 8TH DECEMBER 2024*

    _*And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son (1 John 5:11).*_

    The term "record" in our opening verse also means testimony. The New International Version and a few other versions put it more clearly: _*"And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son"*_ (1 John 5:11 NIV). To get a better understanding of what John was discussing here, you'll have to read the ninth and tenth verses as well. Let's read: _*"We accept human testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son"*_ (1 John 5:9-10 NIV).

    God's testimony is that you have eternal life because you have Jesus Christ. You don't have to feel it to know you have it. All you need is God's testimony that you already have it. If you don't accept His testimony, then you make Him a liar, and God cannot lie. That testimony also says anyone who doesn't have the Son of God doesn't have life.

    The 13th verse in the New International Version is so beautiful. There, the apostle John says, _*"I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life."*_ Glory to God! If you believe in the Name of the Son of God, this was written to you so you can accept God's testimony, and that testimony is that you have eternal life. Therefore, even now, say with confidence, "I have eternal life because I have the Son of God!" Hallelujah!

    *PRAYER*
    *Dear Father, I rejoice in your testimony that I have life because l have Jesus Christ. I walk in this consciousness today as I manifest your divine nature and power. I'm full of life, health and strength, and I live victoriously because eternal life is at work in me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *||* *John 5:24* Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. *||*

    *||* *John 3:36* He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. *||*

    *||* *1 John 5:11-13* And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; [and] he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. *||*

    *|||| HE GAVE US KINGDOM AUTHORITY ||||*

    *|| Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven (Matthew 18:18).
    ||*

    Friday 6th, December.
    Pastor Chris

    In our previous study, we learnt that we’ve been transferred from the jurisdiction or domain of darkness into the Kingdom of God’s Love-Son. So, we’re
    currently in the Kingdom of God’s Love-Son. But what happens here? How are we supposed to live now that we’re in the Kingdom? Are we supposed to cry to God for the solution to one problem or the other? No! Having brought us into the Kingdom, we have Kingdom authority!

    The Lord Jesus said, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy…” (Luke 10:19). Then recall what
    He said in our opening scripture: “Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall
    be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 18:18).

    He’s given you the authority to determine the course and circumstances of your life. What you say is what obtains because you’re standing in the authority of Jesus Christ. If you observe that things around you or the circumstances of your life aren’t aligning with God’s perfect will, give the word and He’ll endorse it. He allows what you allow and disallows what you disallow. He’s given you the authority to effect changes when things aren’t happening right.

    Now you can understand why some people have remained in certain precarious conditions for a long time; it’s because they allowed it to continue. As a Christian, the day you decide you don’t want any particular issue to continue is the day it will stop. Maybe it’s sickness— perhaps a tumour or growth in your body—decide and declare, “I can’t have this in my body; my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit; therefore, I curse this growth and cut out
    this tumour in the Name of Jesus.” That’ll be it!

    Don’t say, “Oh God, please take this sickness away”; that won’t change anything. He’s not responsible for it; rather, He’s given you the authority to do something about it. It doesn’t matter what challenges you may be facing today. Don’t cry. Don’t beg. Don’t cower or complain. Exercise your authority in Christ! What does it take to exercise that authority? We’ll learn more about that in our next study.

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, I thank you for giving me the authority to effect changes and determine the course and circumstances of my life in line with your perfect will. Even now, your blessings—health, peace and prosperity—are evident in my life. I walk in righteousness, propelled by your wisdom as I fulfil my destiny in Christ, in Jesus' Name. Amen. ||*




    *||FURTHER STUDY||*
    *|| 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.

  • *DECLARE WHAT YOU WANT IN HIS NAME*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME*

    *TUESDAY, 3RD DECEMBER 2024*.

    _*And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues (Mark 16:17).*_

    There's a difference between calling on the Name of Jesus and making a demand in His Name. It's crucial to understand this distinction. Consider Romans 10:13; it says, _*"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."*_ Sinners can call upon His Name for salvation, but as Christians, we use His Name; we exercise dominion in His Name.

    Using His Name isn't about calling out to Him as if you're stil a sinner seeking salvation. Now that you're born again, you belong to the household of God. The Name of Jesus is now named upon you and given to you to live by. You don't need to call upon Him anymore for anything: rather, you use His Name with authority to create anything or effect the changes you desire.

    Notice in our opening verse that He didn't say, "Call upon my name and I'll cast the devils out and heal the sick"; no! Rather, you're to use His Name to cast out devils, heal the sick, cleanse lepers, and raise the dead. His Name is an instrument; use it! In John 14:13-14 He said, _*"And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do...If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it."*_

    What a bold statement! That means you can demand anything in His Name and it'll happen. For example, if you were in a distressing situation, instead of calling "Jesus!
    Jesus! Jesus!" out of desperation or panic, declare what you want in His Name. Speak with the authority He's given you. You say, "In the Name of Jesus, I demand healing," or "In the Name of Jesus, you devil of darkness, I command you to lose your grip and get out!"

    Always remember that you're in charge and in control because you function in the Name of Jesus. Everything in life, physical and spiritual, including governments, thrones, the galaxies, principalities and powers, are all subject to the Name of Jesus. Declare what you want in His Name with confidence, and you'll have a testimony. Glory be to God!

    *PRAYER OF SALVATION*
    *“O Lord God, I believe with all my heart in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. I believe He died for me and God raised Him from the dead. I believe He’s alive today. I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, I have eternal life; I’m born again. Thank you Lord, for saving my soul! I’m now a child of God. Hallelujah!”*

    *PRAYER*
    *Dear Father, thank you for the power and authority you've granted us to use the Name of Jesus. I walk in this authority and exercise dominion over circumstances and situations. I speak healing, peace and prosperity in His Name, and I thank you for the confidence and assurance that come with using the Name of Jesus to effect a change and bring your will to pass. Amen.*

    *FURTHER STUDY:*
    *||* *Philippians 2:9-11* Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things] in earth, and [things] under the earth; 11 And [that] every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father. *||*

    *||* *Acts 3:16* And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. *||*

    *||* *John 16:23* And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you. *||*

  • *||RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL||*

    *|||| DECLARE WHAT YOU WANT IN HIS NAME ||||*

    *|| And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues (Mark 16:17). ||*

    Tuesday 3rd, December.
    Pastor Chris

    There’s a difference between calling on the Name
    of Jesus and making a demand in His Name. It’s crucial to understand this distinction. Consider Romans 10:13; it says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Sinners can call upon His Name for salvation, but as Christians, we use His Name; we exercise dominion in His Name.

    Using His Name isn’t about calling out to Him as if you’re still a sinner seeking salvation. Now that you’re born again, you belong to the household of God. The Name of Jesus is now named upon you and given to you to live by. You don’t need to call upon Him anymore for anything; rather, you use His Name with authority to create anything or effect the changes you desire.

    Notice in our opening verse that He didn’t say, “Call upon my name and I’ll cast the devils out and heal the sick”; no! Rather, you’re to use His Name to cast out devils, heal the sick, cleanse lepers, and raise the dead. His Name is an instrument; use it! In John 14:13-14 He said, "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do...If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it."

    What a bold statement! That means you can demand anything in His Name and it’ll happen. For example, if you were in a distressing situation, instead of calling "Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!" out of desperation or panic, declare what you want in His Name. Speak with the authority He’s given
    you. You say, "In the Name of Jesus, I demand healing," or "In the Name of Jesus, you devil of darkness, I command you to lose your grip and get out!"

    Always remember that you’re in charge and in control because you function in the Name of Jesus. Everything in life, physical and spiritual, including governments, thrones, the galaxies, principalities and powers, are all subject to the Name of Jesus. Declare what you want in His Name with confidence, and you’ll have a testimony. Glory be to God!

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, thank you for the power and authority you've granted us to use the Name of Jesus. I walk in this authority and exercise dominion over circumstances
    and situations. I speak healing, peace and prosperity in His Name, and I thank you for the confidence and assurance that come with using the Name of Jesus to effect a change and bring your will to pass. Amen. ||*

  • *YOU'RE HIS WITNESS TO YOUR GENERATION*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *SUNDAY, 1ST DECEMBER 2024*

    _*O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called (1 Timothy 6:20).*_

    Do you realize you're a witness to your generation? The Lord Jesus said in Acts 1:8, _*"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."*_ You're His witness to all those who are connected to you: your co-workers, family members, and those in your neighbourhood or estate where you live. The Gospel has been committed to you for their salvation.

    The Bible says in 1 Timothy 1:11, _*"According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust."*_ Paul said the Gospel was committed to his trust. It's the same with you. You've been entrusted with the Gospel. The same message that saved your life has been committed to your trust. Now, you ought to use that same Gospel to bring salvation to others. That's what success is. You become a fruit-producing branch. Jesus said, _*"I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing"*_ (John 15:5).

    Paul said to Timothy, _*"...keep that which is committed to thy trust..."*_ (1 Timothy 6:20). That term committed is from an interesting Greek word, "parakatathéké" which means "a deposit." This means a deposit has been made; something has been given to your trust. Now you're going to use that investment of your personality.

    You're like a bag of seeds; the deposits in you are seeds of the Kingdom that you plant in other people. That's your number one job. If you give utmost attention to it, everything else will fall into place. Remember the words of Jesus: _*"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you"*_ (Matthew 6:33).

    The things that the Gentiles seek after will be added to you if you seek the expansion of God's Kingdom first. Remember, you're representing the Kingdom, and now, the Kingdom is working in your behalf. Be sure to witness to someone about Jesus Christ. We're having ReachOut World Day tomorrow; give at least one person in your sphere of contact a copy of Rhapsody of Realities, and see the Kingdom of God expand through you.

    *PRAYER*
    *Dear Father, I thank you for entrusting me with the precious Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. I recognize the responsibility and honour it is to be a witness to my generation. My life is a testament to your love and grace, producing lasting fruit for your Kingdom. Thank you for the privilege to serve and represent this glorious Kingdom, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *FURTHER STUDY:*
    *||* *Mark 16:15* And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. *||*

    *||* *Acts 26:14-18* And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? [it is] hard for thee to kick against the pricks. 15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. 16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; 17 Delivering thee from the people, and [from] the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 18 To open their eyes, [and] to turn [them] from darkness to light, and [from] the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. *||*

  • *REPROVING THE WORLD OF SIN*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *THURSDAY, 28TH NOVEMBER 2024*

    _*And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment (John 16:8).*_

    Reproving the world for its wicked works and evil is a core part of the ministry of Christ. He told us in John 16:8 that when the Holy Spirit comes, He'll do the same thing; He'll continue this work. He does exactly that today. Let's read our opening verse again, this time, from the AMPC: _*"And when He comes, He will convict and convince the world and bring demonstration to it about sin, and about righteousness,(uprightness of heart, and right standing with God) and about judgment."*_

    The Holy Spirit convicts and convinces the world of sin, showing them the error of their ways and the righteousness that comes through Christ. But how does He carry out this ministry? He does it through us. We're His vessels, bearing His message of salvation to the world. So, let's keep heralding His truth and praying for the lost that God will guide them to embrace the truth and be transformed by the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ.

    Through our prayers and the preaching of the Gospel, sinners are awakened to their need for salvation. They turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God. Remember that it's Satan that blinded their eyes (2 Corinthians 4:4), but through our prayers, we extricate them from the dominion of Satan, and the light of God's Word penetrates their hearts, illuminating the way of salvation and drawing them into the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.


    *PRAYER*
    *Dear Father, I thank you for the ministry of the Holy Spirit who convicts and convinces the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. I pray for those who are yet to know Christ that their eyes be opened to the truth of the Gospel. Today, as they hear your Word, it illuminates their hearts to receive salvation. Thank you Lord, for the finished work of Christ and for the grace that has ushered us into righteousness, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *||* *John 3:17-18* For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. *||*

    *||* *Acts 26:16-18* But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; 17 Delivering thee from the people, and [from] the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 18 To open their eyes, [and] to turn [them] from darkness to light, and [from] the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. *||*

    *|||| REVELATION: THE TRUE PATH TO KNOWING HIM ||||*

    *|| But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, To reveal his Son in me... (Galatians 1:15-16). ||*

    Tuesday 26th, November.
    Pastor Chris

    There're those who attempt to understand God through their intellect as though God could be studied in a
    laboratory. However, knowing God is not something that can be achieved through mental effort or intellectual exercise. Even Paul the apostle, a highly educated man, realized that his learning was insufficient when it came to knowing Jesus Christ. He needed revelation.

    You can only know God by the revelation of the Spirit. There's a level of humility required to reach that point. You must come to the realization that no amount of intellectual prowess could help you here; you need God's revelation. And when you humble yourself, God will reveal Himself to you as He did with Paul.

    Paul was an erudite scholar; read Philippians 3 where he declared his resume and made some very thought-provoking statements. He said, "Concerning the righteousness which is in the law, I was blameless"; he knew it all (Philippians 3:6). Then he says in verses 8-10, "Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: ...that I may win Christ, and be found in him... That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection..." (Philippians 3:8-10).

    Then in Galatians 1:15-16, he said, "But when it pleased God...to reveal his Son in me." It was by revelation that Paul eventually came to know Jesus Christ. No wonder he prayed a beautiful prayer of the Spirit for the Christians in Ephesus that God would grant them the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him (Ephesians 1:17-18).

    He understood that you couldn't "experiment" or hypothesize to know God or discover Him through history alone. Without revelation, no one could truly know God, and that's why we pray for those who don't know Him, that their eyes be opened to the truth of the Gospel and that the veil of darkness in their hearts be removed by the Spirit to receive divine revelation and experience the fullness of God's love and salvation. Amen.

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, I pray for those yet to know you that you will reveal yourself to them by your Spirit, removing every veil of darkness and barrier of ignorance and pride from their hearts. I pray that their minds be enlightened to know and experience the fullness of your love and salvation, and comprehend the truth of the Gospel. By your grace, many will come to the full knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ today, in Jesus' Name. Amen. ||*

  • *THE REAL MEDICINE*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *MONDAY, 25TH NOVEMBER 2024*

    _*My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh (Proverbs 4:20-22).*_

    Notice what we just read; first, it says _*"...attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart...."*_ How can you attend to God's words if you don't know them? That's why it's important to study, meditate, and act on the Word continually by the Spirit.

    Secondly, it says, _*"For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh."*_ God's Word has the power to heal and deliver. His words are life and health to all your flesh. The Hebrew word for health here is "marpe," and it means cure or medicine; the Word has curative powers. That's why the King James Version uses the word 'health'; God's Word is medicine for your body.

    If you have a problem with your body, like a health condition, and you meditate on God's Word, you'll be cured. God's Word is the real medicine—the universal, infallible panacea for any issue regarding your health. Through meditation, the real medicine enters your heart, your veins, your arteries, your muscles, your bones, effecting a cure, mending and perfecting all things.

    This is the reason someone who's been diagnosed with cancer can get cured by meditating on the Word. The Word is a healer and a cleanser (John 15:3); it'll cleanse your blood; it'll purify and cleanse it of any kind of sickness, disease or infirmity. Psalm 107:20 says, _*"He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions."*_

    It brings to mind Job 33:19-22 where the Bible describes the sufferings of a man in pain and weakness and how his suffering became so severe; his body had deteriorated and was at the precipice of death. But verse 23 in the Amplified Classic Translation revealed his hope; it says, _*"[God's voice may be heard] if there is for the hearer a messenger or an angel, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man what is right for him [how to be upright and in right standing with God]."*_ God's voice—His Word—can be heard; when you hear it, it imparts faith to you; it brings you healing and makes you whole.


    *PRAYER*
    *Thank you Father for your Word that brings healing and deliverance. Your Word is medicine to my body; my entire being—my organs, bones, veins, arteries, blood—are inundated by the Word. I walk in divine health and victory, because your Word is my life, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    _*Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature (Colossians 1:15).*_

    The Greek word translated "image" in the scripture above is "eikōn," which is where the English gets the word "icon." It means resemblance or profile. God is invisible, but if you want to know what He looks like, Jesus is the image, the profile of the invisible God.

    This helps us further understand the words of Jesus in John 14:8 (NKJV) when Philip said to Him, _*"...Lord, show us the Father, and it uis sufficient for us."*_ Jesus replied him, _*"...Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?"*_ (John 14:9). This is amazing!

    For their religious minds, this was too huge because Jesus had been talking so much about the Father. He talked about His oneness with the Father and that He would return to the Father. They wanted to see the Father, but He told them, _*"...he that hath seen me hath seen the Father..."*_ (John 14:9). In Hebrews 1:3, we get another powerful description; it says, _*"Who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of his person...."*_ The Greek word translated "express image" here is "charaktēr," and it means exact copy, perfect imprint or facsimile.

    Jesus is the exact representation of God's essence. If you want to see the perfect imprint of God's person, it's found in Jesus. Jesus displayed the divine nature, essence, and character of God. No wonder John 1:18 says, _*"No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him."*_ The Greek word for "declared" here is 'exēgeomai,' meaning to display or rehearse.

    Jesus didn't merely talk about God; He rehearsed and displayed the divine nature. The great and mighty works He did are proofs of His divine essence and oneness with the Father. He said, _*"Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in me, or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves"*_ (John 14:11 NKJV).


    *PRAYER*
    *Dear Father, I thank you for revealing your essence and nature through Jesus Christ, the perfect imprint of your being. As I behold the image of Christ through the Word, I see you, for He is the exact representation of your character, your love and your glory. I rejoice that through Christ, I have come to know the Father. I am transformed into the image of your dear Son. Thank you for your boundless love expressed so perfectly in me. Amen.*

    *|||| SUPERIOR TO ANGELS ||||*

    *|| Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life (1 Corinthians 6:3). ||*

    Friday 22nd, November.
    Pastor Chris

    This scripture indicates that Christians will indeed judge angels. We will be seated together with Christ on thrones, and we shall judge the world and judge angels according to the Scriptures.

    Does this imply that Christians are superior to God's angels? Yes, and our superiority is the result of our identity, our oneness with Christ. We're joint heirs with Christ, born of the Spirit of God. Unlike the angels who are servants of God, we're God's children: "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ..." (Romans 8:16-17 NKJV).

    The Bible says, "...the servant abideth not in the house forever: but the Son abideth ever" (John 8:35). And 1 John 3:2 says, "Beloved, now are we the sons of God...;" we have the rights and privileges of sonship. We're one with Christ, and He has given us His authority; we live and function in His Name.

    Some have asked for clarification with reference to Matthew 22:30 which indicates that at the resurrection we would be as angels. You have to understand the context: it says, "For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven." Here, Jesus was responding to a question about marriage after resurrection, but He clarified that in the resurrection, we won't be bound by earthly institutions like marriage. Instead, we will be like the angels, without gender, and will not engage in marriage.

    This doesn't mean we will "drop" in rank to the status of angels but that we'll transcend earthly distinctions. In the resurrection, we'll be like God, who is neither male nor female. Presently, the angels are sent to serve us: "But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation" (Hebrews 1:13-14).

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, I thank you for making me a joint heir with Christ, seated in heavenly places with Him, living and walking in the authority in His Name. I walk in the consciousness of my divine nature and live victoriously, reigning in life through Christ. Thank you for my divine oneness with you, my position, authority and inheritance in Christ, in Jesus' Name. Amen. ||*

    *|||| VESSELS OF DIVINE POWER ||||*

    *|| But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us (2 Corinthians 4:7). ||*

    Thursday 21st, November.
    Pastor Chris

    Did you know that as a child of God, you have an indescribable treasure in you? God has deposited his divine power and glory within our "earthen vessels," our human bodies. We're vessels of divine power. Why did He do this? The Scripture tells us why: "...that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."

    His extraordinary power and glory are tabernacled in our physical bodies so that when they're manifested, everyone would see and recognize they're not of human origin. They're beyond anything human strength can produce. Glory to God! No wonder Paul said, "Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God" (2 Corinthians 3:5 ).

    Read our opening verse again, this time, from the Amplified Classic for a clearer understanding. It says, "However, we possess this precious treasure [the divine Light of the Gospell in (frail, human] vessels of earth, that the grandeur and exceeding greatness of the power may be shown to be from God and not from ourselves." Every day is an opportunity for you to manifest God's glory and power. The Bible says He's called us to a life of glory and virtue, a life of excellence (2 Peter 1:3).

    Your life is for the glory of God. Hallelujah! Every day, as you live by faith and walk in the knowledge of God, you demonstrate the divine power that is within you. As a result of this divine power, the Bible says you've been granted all things that pertain to life and godliness. You've become a participator in the divine experience, a partaker of the divine nature.

    Nothing is impossible with you. You can do the unthinkable and the unimaginable: "Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" (Ephesians 3:20). Live boldly and confidently every day, knowing that God's extraordinary power is at work in you and effuses through you for His glory. You're a vessel of divine power.

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, thank you for the precious treasure of your divine power and glory within me. I am grateful that your extraordinary power is manifested in my life for your glory.

They're beyond anything human strength can produce. Glory to God! No wonder Paul said, "Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God" (2 Corinthians 3:5 ).

    Read our opening verse again, this time, from the Amplified Classic for a clearer understanding. It says, "However, we possess this precious treasure [the divine Light of the Gospell in (frail, human] vessels of earth, that the grandeur and exceeding greatness of the power may be shown to be from God and not from ourselves." Every day is an opportunity for you to manifest God's glory and power. The Bible says He's called us to a life of glory and virtue, a life of excellence (2 Peter 1:3).

    Your life is for the glory of God. Hallelujah! Every day, as you live by faith and walk in the knowledge of God, you demonstrate the divine power that is within you. As a result of this divine power, the Bible says you've been granted all things that pertain to life and godliness. You've become a participator in the divine experience, a partaker of the divine nature.

    Nothing is impossible with you. You can do the unthinkable and the unimaginable: "Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" (Ephesians 3:20). Live boldly and confidently every day, knowing that God's extraordinary power is at work in you and effuses through you for His glory. You're a vessel of divine power.

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, thank you for the precious treasure of your divine power and glory within me. I am grateful that your extraordinary power is manifested in my life for your glory.

  • *HIS STANDARDS ARE UNCHANGING*

    *PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

    *WEDNESDAY, 20TH NOVEMBER 2024*

    _*For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2 Corinthians 5:21).*_

    Without a proper understanding of righteousness, it's impossible to live a true Christian life. Why is righteousness so important? To truly understand righteousness, we must first understand God. This is because, in the world, righteousness isn't typically discussed. People might talk about doing what is right or wrong in terms of good and evil, but these are based on human definitions and moral standards.

    These standards can change depending on cultural, societal, or individual beliefs about what is right or wrong. For example, in certain countries, though bizarre, their law allows for same-sex marriages, meaning that in such societies, if a man marries another man, it's considered okay. But in certain other societies, this act might be considered wrong or even punishable by death. In one place, it's seen as normal; in another, it's viewed as a grave sin. But God's position on it is clearly defined in the Scriptures in both the Old and New Testaments (Leviticus 18:22, Romans 1:26-32).

    God's concept of righteousness is different. Many people mistakenly believe that the majority opinion represents the voice of God, but that's not true. Whether the majority gets it right or wrong is irrelevant. God has His own voice, His own standards, His own Kingdom, and His own choices. He has expressed His will through Jesus Christ, whom He sent.

    When we talk about righteousness, we're talking about God's ability and attribute, the character of God to be right and perfect. It is about who He is. How He thinks is always right. What He says is always right. What He does is always right because He's God. So, everything about God—His thoughts, His words, His actions—is always right. This is what we call the quality of rightness, the rightness of God.

    Therefore, understanding righteousness is about understanding who God is. It is about recognizing that His standards are unchanging and not subject to human opinions or societal norms.


    *PRAYER*
    *Righteous Father, I align my thoughts, words and actions with your unchanging standards and live in your righteousness in this crooked and perverse world, shining as a light. I'm the unveiling of your righteousness. I'm a tree of righteousness, planted to produce fruits of righteousness. My life is a reflection of your grace and a testimony of your goodness, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

    *||* *Romans 1:26-32* For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. *||*

    *|||| HIS WONDROUS LIGHT |||*

    *|| But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light (1 Peter 2:9). ||*

    Monday 18th, November.
    Pastor Chris

    Peter's beautiful words help us to further understand Christianity. In Christianity we've been born into God's marvellous light, His wonderful light. The word "marvellous" means wondrous. Most translations interpret this as if we're being brought out of literal darkness into light. But that's not the full picture.

    When it says He brought us out of darkness, the term "darkness" actually means obscurity. He called you out of obscurity. He's not referring to being called out of the kingdom of darkness in a general sense, but rather being brought out of obscurity-out of being unknown, unrecognized, unnoticed, where nobody knows or cares about you.

    He brought you out of obscurity into limelight, His wondrous or wonderful light. Why does He call it wonderful light? It will take several scriptures to fully explain this, but I want you to understand that this is the light of Jesus Christ.

    In Luke 1:79, Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist spoke about the message of salvation that would be brought forth, saying that this message would illuminate those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death: "To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace." They were sitting ni darkness, sitting in obscurity, but Christ would be their light.

    This means His wonderful light does two things: it illuminates you and then makes you luminous. You become lambent and resplendent. Yours is the kind of light that both illuminates and transforms into a light source itself. The light is so strong, so dazzling that it turns its subjects into lights. That's why it's described as His marvellous light, His wondrous light. You've been brought into this light, and now you are lambent. Hallelujah!

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, thank you for bringing me into your marvellous light. I'm no longer hidden, unknown, or obscure; I'm a city set on a hill, lambent with unquenchable intensity. My life is a testament to your transformative power as I continue to grow and glow in your wondrous light, in Jesus' Name. Amen. ||*

    *||FURTHER STUDY||*
    *|| Matthew 5:14-16 ||* Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

    *|| Isaiah 60:1 ||* Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.

    *|| Ephesians 5:8 ||* For ye were sometimes darkness, but now [are ye] light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

    *|| 2 Corinthians 4:6 ||* For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory displayed in the face of Christ.

    Pastor Chris

    Peter's beautiful words help us to further understand Christianity. In Christianity we've been born into God's marvellous light, His wonderful light. The word "marvellous" means wondrous. Most translations interpret this as if we're being brought out of literal darkness into light. But that's not the full picture.

    When it says He brought us out of darkness, the term "darkness" actually means obscurity. He called you out of obscurity. He's not referring to being called out of the kingdom of darkness in a general sense, but rather being brought out of obscurity-out of being unknown, unrecognized, unnoticed, where nobody knows or cares about you.

    He brought you out of obscurity into limelight, His wondrous or wonderful light. Why does He call it wonderful light? It will take several scriptures to fully explain this, but I want you to understand that this is the light of Jesus Christ.

    In Luke 1:79, Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist spoke about the message of salvation that would be brought forth, saying that this message would illuminate those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death: "To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace." They were sitting ni darkness, sitting in obscurity, but Christ would be their light.

    This means His wonderful light does two things: it illuminates you and then makes you luminous. You become lambent and resplendent. Yours is the kind of light that both illuminates and transforms into a light source itself. The light is so strong, so dazzling that it turns its subjects into lights. That's why it's described as His marvellous light, His wondrous light. You've been brought into this light, and now you are lambent. Hallelujah!

    *||PRAYER||*
    *|| Dear Father, thank you for bringing me into your marvellous light. I'm no longer hidden, unknown, or obscure; I'm a city set on a hill, lambent with unquenchable intensity. My life is a testament to your transformative power as I continue to grow and glow in your wondrous light, in Jesus' Name. Amen. ||*

  • If you don't understand then forget about it

    But, I'm sure the legends will surely understand.
