Rhapsody of Realities January 13th 2025, THE GOD-LIFE IN YOU

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD

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… (1 John 5:11-12).

Eternal life isn’t just about living forever; it’s the God-life in you; the organic and existential attributes of deity in you, which makes you taxonomically different from the natural man. This life makes you superior to Satan, sickness, disease, failure, and death.

The Lord Jesus didn’t come to give us religion; He came to give us the God-life (John 10:10). In John 10:27-28, He said, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish….” When you have eternal life, you’re severed or separated from those who could perish.

John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Eternal life makes you indestructible and invincible. It makes you a partaker of the divine nature. As one who’s born again and has received the God-life, you’re hundred per cent divine despite having a human body.

Your body is the outer casing for the real you, your spirit, wherein is the life and nature of God. That’s the reason your body is impacted by the power and glory of the God-life in you. Another beautiful truth is that you’re a distributor of that life—the God-life in you.

Anything and anyone you touch comes alive because you’re born in the image and similitude of the life giver, the Lord Jesus Christ, the second and last Adam (read 1 Corinthians 15:45-47 ESV). As He is, so are you in this world (1 John 4:17). You’re a life-giver, a minister of life.

Wherever you go, you bring healing, peace and transformation. When you lay your hands on the sick, the life in you flows out of you to bring restoration. When you speak words of faith, life is transmitted into every situation. You’re of a higher class, a divine species, chosen and separated by God to manifest His life, glory and righteousness in the earth. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
*Dear Father, I thank you for giving me eternal life and thus elevating me to your class of being. I function with divine wisdom, power and excellence. I’m a dispenser of life and the fragrance of your glory everywhere; thank you, Lord, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
‭‭1 Corinthians 15:45-47 KJV
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. [46] Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. [47] The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.

‭‭2 Peter 1:4 KJV
Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

‭‭1 John 5:11-13 NIV
And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. [13] 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.

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS:

I am an associate of the God-kind, recreated into the image and likeness of the Son of God! I function from the place of advantage, victory, dominion, and power. I am guided and propelled by God’s divine wisdom to do His will and fulfill my destiny in Christ. I affirm that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life. My old life has been completely supplanted by the divine life, which is superior to sickness, disease, defeat, and the depravities of the natural man. I refuse to allow resentment, hatred, jealousy, envy, bitterness, anger, or strife to take root in me. My heart is full of God’s love, kindness, and compassion, which I express lavishly everywhere and to everyone.

Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I get stronger and healthier daily; like the eagle, my strength is renewed. I live in an ageless zone because I belong to the God class. I give expression only to God’s virtues, for I was made for His glory and carry His very life and nature. I am in the centre of God’s will for my life and equipped with all things that pertain to life and godliness. I am filled with the fullness of God. The lines have fallen unto me in pleasant places, and I have a goodly heritage. I do not struggle or respond in fear, for God has not given me a spirit of fear.

I am seated with Christ, far above all principality, power, might, and dominion. I am exalted with Him in glory—chosen, royal, and peculiar. My life is the expression and manifestation of the glory and righteousness of Christ. Therefore, I am superhuman. I celebrate the divine life in me, far above sickness and every corrupting influence of this world. Victory, dominion, and perfect health characterize my daily life because my mind stays on the Word. I do not worry about my health, finances, family, or anything else, for the Lord has perfected all that concerns me in Jesus’ name. Amen. Speak in tongues.
