*LIFTED INTO HIS CLASS* RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. FRIDAY, JANUARY 31ST 2025. SCRIPTURE: 1 JOHN 5: 11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. When you receive eternal life—which is the unfading, unending and indestructible life of God—you receive the very nature and righteousness of God. This life lifts you into God's class of being. Let me explain this to you because it's so important. We often talk about who God is. God is not just a supernatural being who is so powerful that no one can resist Him, allowing Him to do whatever He pleases. While that's true to some extent, there's more to God than just His power. The Bible tells us that God is holy, God is righteous, God is just, and God is love. He created everything, and nothing exists that He didn't create. Everything belongs to Him. We are from God; He made us. He had a plan for us, and in His plan, He determined to give us eternal life so that we would be more than mere creatures. He gave us eternal life to lift us into His class of being. That's what the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:17: _*"...If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature...."*_ If you're born again, it means you're in Christ, and if you're in Christ, you're a new creature, a new kind of man, a new type of being, in God's class of being. This doesn't mean that you are equal with God but that you share in His nature. He remains your God and Heavenly Father, and He is greater than you, yet you can now relate with Him at a personal level, in a father-and-child relationship. Just as a child relates to the parent as a human being, not as a dog or cat that belongs to a different class, we have been lifted into God's class to relate with Him as associates of the God-kind. That's what receiving eternal life means, and it's the life that God has given to us through Jesus Christ. This is the good news we preach. This is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This is why we proclaim it to the world that eternal life has come and that now, anyone who believes has been lifted into God's class of being. *PRAYER* _Dear Father, thank you for the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ. I rejoice because I have been lifted into your class of being, with your divine nature and righteousness. I'm a new creation, born again with your unfading, unending and indestructible life in me. I walk in the consciousness of this life every day, influencing my world with your power, in Jesus' Name. Amen._ 🔴𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐍𝐎𝐖!!!🔴 🔵𝐉𝐎𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓𝐒𝐀𝐏𝐏 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐋: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vacmw4GCcW4tU6ZEPi1m 🎁𝐃𝐎𝐖𝐍𝐋𝐎𝐀𝐃 𝐑𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐒𝐎𝐃𝐘 𝐈𝐍 𝐀𝐍𝐘 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐆𝐄: https://app.rhapsodyofrealities.org/home/TRMSB use the referral code TRMSB 💟𝐒𝐀𝐋𝐕𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://wa.link/g1gbws (chat with us) https://rin.rhapsodyofrealities.org/soul/martinspiritman 🔈𝐖𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄 𝐂𝐇𝐔𝐑𝐂𝐇 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐊: https://christembassyifako.org/live/ ✍🏻 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐓 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐆: https://spiritman.online 🗳️𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐑𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐏 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://partner.reachoutworld.org/ref/bYruA0F2 ✅ 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐁𝐔𝐓𝐄 𝐑𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐒𝐎𝐃𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐒: https://read.rhapsodyofrealities.org/rin/martinspiritman7172 🎖️𝐆𝐄𝐓 𝐀𝐂𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐓𝐎 𝐏𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑 𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒 𝐌𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐆𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐌: https://t.me/onlinemissions 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐊 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐆𝐎𝐃 𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔❤️🙏 *FURTHER STUDY* *|| John 3:16 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. ||* *|| 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. ||* *|| 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. ||* *|| 2 Peter 1:4 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. ||* *DAILY SCRIPTURE READING* *1-YEAR BIBLE READING PLAN:* Matthew 21:33-22:1-14 & Exodus 20-21 *2 YEAR BIBLE READING PLAN:* Matthew 11:11-20 & Genesis 31 *DIVINE HEALTH CONFESSIONS -31ST JANUARY 2025* *Christ lives in me; therefore, my life is glorified, and vitalized.
