RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY THURSDAY 23RD NOVEMBER 2023.
The new creature in our opening verse, is a new type of man, a mystery to the world. He’s the dream of the Father. Being born again, you’re not like anything the world has seen before. You’re the first and the best of everything that God made (James 1:18). You’re top-class, superior to Satan.
The new man in Christ is the temple of the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 3:16 says, “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?” Now that the Holy Spirit has taken up His abode in you, your physical body is no longer subject to decay, decadence and corrupting influences of this world.
Death, sickness, disease and everything of darkness can’t, and shouldn’t, reign in your physical body, because your human life was supplanted by God’s divine life. You live by the Spirit now, not by blood: “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:12-13). This is the amazing life of the new man in Christ!
2 Corinthians 6:16 says, “…for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them….” God’s dream from the foundation of the world is fulfilled in the new man in Christ. The mystery that was hidden from ages and generations has now been made manifest, and fulfilled in us. That mystery is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:26-27). Hallelujah! What does this mean to you even now? It means you ought to walk in the fullness of the blessings of the Gospel of Christ. You received the fullness of God’s blessing when you received Christ.
CONFESSION
The creator of all things lives in me in His fullness; I’m a carrier and sharer of His life and glory. I’m conscious of my divine nature and heritage, and I manifest the Christ-life in me to my world by the power of the Spirit, to influence men and women in righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY:
Ephesians 4:20-24;
20 But ye have not so learned Christ;
21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
1 John 4:4;
4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
Colossians 3:8-10
8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
