📌 *WE RELATE TO GOD FROM OUR SPIRITS* RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20TH 2025. SCRIPTURE: GALATIANS 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. There’s a misconception that some people have about how men and women connect with God in worship. They assume that men tend to focus on songs about power, while women, being more passionate, prefer singing love songs to the Lord. But such thinking is carnal and misses the deeper spiritual truth. When it comes to our relationship with God, we relate to Him from our spirits, not on the basis of physical gender. Paul made this clear when he said, _*“For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son...”*_ (Romans 1:9). We are spirit beings, created in the image of God, and when we serve God, we do so from our spirits. In Christ, our identity transcends gender. Our true identity is in our spirits, and in that realm, there is no distinction. Therefore, in worship, your connection with God is about your spirit reaching out to His Spirit in fellowship. The Lord Jesus said, _*“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth”*_ (John 4:23-24). The outward gender is part of the earthly body, but we’re new creations, living and serving God from our spirits, where gender distinctions have no place: Galatians 3:26-28, _*“For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.”*_ Also, the Bible says that _*"...the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed"*_ (1 Corinthians 15:52). At the resurrection, we will be transformed and no longer be bound by physical distinctions like gender. Hallelujah! *PRAYER* _Dear Father, thank you for the revelation of who I am in Christ. I know that in my spirit, I’m a new creation, made in your image. I serve you with all my heart, with passion, power and love, knowing that my worship transcends the physical. Thank you for making me inextricably one with you, 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 ✍🏻 *Register for Healing Streams Live Healing Services with Pastor Chris* (March Edition | Date Friday 14 - Sunday 16 March, 2025).
