*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL* *LOVE NOT THE WORLD* Wednesday, October 30th . Pastor Chris _*And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice (1 Kings 11:9).*_ Though Solomon was a great king and the wisest man that ever lived before Jesus, he didn’t quite live His entire life pleasing the Lord. The Bible says he loved many “strange women” and followed their gods. He brought them from nations where God already forbade the children of Israel to marry from. In 1 Kings 11:2, God said, _*“...Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods....”*_ But the concluding part of that verse says, _*“...Solomon clave unto these in love.”*_ As a result, the Lord wasn’t pleased with him. Some Christians are that way today. Their closest friends and associates are people of the world. Like Solomon, they cleave to the wrong people and to the wrong associations for the wrong reasons. Some of them keep these friendships because they help to make them become socially famous or popular. But the Bible says, _*“…know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God”*_ (James 4:4). 1 John 2:15 says, _*“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”*_ Solomon chose to become a socially famous king. Read about him; after God’s second appearance to him, there’s no record of him praying anywhere in the Scriptures. Instead, everything associated with him was social. He was in one meeting or the other, receiving visitors, and attending parties, but no meetings with the Lord. You have to understand that the people you associate with will become the standard for the things that take your time. These include your interests and the things you love. God said to the children of Israel, _*“…for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods...”*_ (1 Kings 11:2). Don’t say, “I know myself; they can’t influence me”; rather, simply heed God’s admonition. He already said concerning unwholesome associations, _*“…come out from among them, and be ye separate…”*_ (2 Corinthians 6:17). God knows better than you do. If He tells you the result of taking an action, trust that He’s right and follow His Word. *CONFESSION* *I’m discerning in my relationships and guided by the wisdom of God to fraternize only with those who honour the Lord and His Word and have reverence for the things of the Spirit. I prioritize fellowship with the Lord above everything else and set my heart on the glory and realities of the Kingdom. Amen.* *FURTHER STUDY:* ** *1 John 2:15 NIV* Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. ** ** *1 Corinthians 15:33* Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. ** ** *2 Corinthians 6:14-18* Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. ** *DAILY SCRIPTURE READING* *1-Year Bible Reading Plan=>* Titus 3:1-15 & Jeremiah 31-32 *2-Year Bible Reading Plan=>* James 4:1-17 & Ezekiel 30

*Rhapsody Of Realities Daily Devotional* *COVENANT CONFESSIONS* _Thursday, October 31st._ _Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD_ _*That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:9-10).*_ In these verses of scripture, the word “Confession” was translated from the Greek word ‘homologeo’ and it means “to speak the same thing in consent.” ‘Homologeo’ is actually a covenant confession, that is, a confession that is based on agreement. Glory to God! Thus, with respect to the above verses, ‘confession’ means to speak in agreement with God. There are those who only associate the word “confession” with wrong actions or sins. So, they go before the priest to “confess” their sins: “I stole last week; please I want God to forgive me.” But this isn’t what the Bible teaches here about salvation. Romans 10:9-10 enlightens us that the God-ordained way to be saved is based on covenant confession, not the confession of sins or wrongdoings. Every time you make the right confessions, God responds because your words are based on agreement with His Word. Remember that God made a covenant with Abraham, and the Bible says,_*“…if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise”*_ (Galatians 3:29). That means, even though we’re essentially not in covenant with God, we’re heirs or the beneficiaries of that covenant. Here’s another scripture where the same Greek word (homologeo) was used. It’s Hebrews 13:15 and it says, _*“By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.”’*_ A better rendering of the latter part of this scripture would be “the fruit of our lips, making confessions to His name.” The term “the fruit of your lips” refers to words coming out of your lips. Here, the Spirit of God is referring to confessions that are of praise, confessions that carry thanksgiving. Your confession must be based on what’s in the document, which is the Word of God. *PRAYER* *Dear Father, I rejoice in the reality that my words, in agreement with your Word, bring about salvation, healing, deliverance, prosperity, abundance and wholeness. I continually offer the sacrifice of praise, making confessions to your Name, knowing that my life is anchored on your truth. I acknowledge and declare that Jesus is Lord over all; He’s the God of all flesh with whom nothing is impossible. Hallelujah!* *FURTHER STUDY:* *||* *Hebrews 4:14 NKJV* Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] confession. *||* *||* *2 Corinthians 4:13* We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; *||* *||* *Hebrews 13:5-6* [Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord [is] my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. *||* *DAILY SCRIPTURE READING* *1-Year Bible Reading Plan=>* Philemon 1:1-25 & Jeremiah 33 *2-Year Bible Reading Plan=>* James 5:1-20 & Ezekiel 31

STUDY YOUR RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL ═══════════════ 🌏💦 WORKS OF LOVE THROUGH US - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 💦 🌏 ═══════════════ Monday, 4th November 2024. ═══════════════ 📖.... Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it (John 14:12-14). ═══════════════ What a profound statement the Lord Jesus made in the verses above. He said, “...He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do....” He meant the works of love He continues to do by the Spirit through us because we’re the extension of His ministry. As the prophet Isaiah said, “...he shall see His seed, he shall prolong his days...” (Isaiah 53:10). He’s prolonging His days and continuing His ministry through us. This is so amazing. Always remember that you’re not alone; Christ is at work in you. Look closely at verse 14 of the opening verse: “If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.” Did you notice there’s no special clause here? There’s no conditions or exceptions; He said anything. Most people have never truly understood this enough to take advantage of it. The Lord Jesus said exactly what He meant and meant exactly what He said. Anything you ask in His Name is yours. Glory be to God! In John 16:23, He tells us more about the day of the Church: “And in that day ye shall ask me nothing....” At first glance, this may seem like a contradiction of what we read earlier in chapter 14. But if you go back to chapter 14 and read from verse 12, you’ll notice what He’s talking about. He said, “...He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” The “greater works” are possible because Jesus has ascended to the Father and sent the Holy Spirit to empower us and impact the world with His love, power, and presence. We’re not limited. He has equipped us to do the same works that He did. This isn’t just about performing miracles; it’s about revealing the love and glory of God through our lives, just as Jesus did. ═══════════════ 🌀🌐🌍….Be A Beacon of Light through the PASTOR CHRIS Message on Every Device Campaigns TODAY ….🌀🌍 🌀🌍⏩ CLICK HERE TO SPONSOR ⏬⏬https://bit.ly/Let-Your-Seed-Count_GIVE_NOW ═══════════════ 🗣 PRAYER 🗣 ═══════════════ Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of doing the works of Jesus and even greater works through the power of your Spirit in me.

Study Your Rhapsody Of Realities Daily Devotional ═══════════════ 🌏💦 THE DIVINE PERSPECTIVE - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 💦🌏 ═══════════════ Saturday, November 2nd 2024 ═══════════════ 📖 _For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ_ (2 Corinthians 4:6) ═══════════════ This is an extraordinary statement! God, who spoke light into existence at the very beginning has now shined in our hearts. Why did He do this? What is the purpose of His light in our hearts? The answer is in the latter part of that same verse: "…to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." This is so powerful! If you’re a Christian, Christ lives in you, and His purpose is to reveal and radiate the glory of God through your life. Your life should be a daily manifestation of God's glory. Many people live their lives according to their feelings, circumstances, or how others perceive them. But as a child of God, you’re called to live according to the knowledge of God. This knowledge is the divine perspective: seeing life as God sees it and understanding situations as God understands them. This is called "the Truth." What does God think about your situation? What does He know? What does He say? His words are the ultimate truths. So, live by the knowledge given to us by God; align yourself with His truth and see life from His perspective and you’ll experience the outworking of His glory in your life. He has given us His Word and His Spirit to know His thoughts and understand His ways. Therefore, you’re to live by this higher knowledge—the knowledge of God. When you truly grasp that God has shined His light in your heart to give you this divine perspective, you’ll understand that you carry an extraordinary power within you—the power to manifest His glory in every situation. This divine knowledge transforms you and causes you to live victoriously, displaying His glory to the world. ═══════════════ 🌀🌐🌍… .Be A Beacon of Light through the PASTOR CHRIS Message on Every Device Campaigns TODAY…. 🌀🌍 🌀🌍⏩ CLICK HERE TO SPONSOR ⏬⏬https://bit.ly/Let-Your-Seed-Count_GIVE_NOW ═══════════════ 🌎 PRAYER 🗣 ═══════════════ Dear Father, thank you for shining your light in our hearts and giving us the knowledge of your glory in the face of Jesus Christ.
