CHILDREN OF LIGHT Wednesday, July 31st 2019

Rhapsody Of Realities CHILDREN OF LIGHT Wednesday, July 31st 2019 Pastor Chris Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness (1 Thessalonians 5:5). In the verse above, the Spirit, writing through the Apostle Paul, was addressing Christians; He’s talking to you, and He minces no words in describing you. He says you’re light! You’re born of God, of His Word, which is light, so you’re the offspring of Light. The Spirit expresses the same thought in Ephesians 5:8. It reads, “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light” (NIV). How interesting this is! It doesn’t say you were in the darkness; it says you were darkness, but now, you’re light. This means you can also declare with audacity, as Jesus did, “As long as I’m in the world, I’m the light of the ...

OPEN HEAVEN 31 JULY 2019 READ: John 2:1-11 (KJV) 1. And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there; 2. And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. 3. And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. 4. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 5. His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. 6. And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. 7. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they ba...

TUESDAY, 30TH JULY. BELIEVE AND EXPECT MIRACLES

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES TUESDAY, 30TH JULY. http://bit.ly/2dZqtLQ BELIEVE AND EXPECT MIRACLES If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it (John 14:14).  It doesn’t make sense to believe in God and not believe in miracles. A Christian who doesn’t believe in miracles doesn’t know who God is. A miracle is the supernatural intervention of God in the natural affairs of men, an intervention that transcends human reasoning, ability, science, and logic. Therefore, to believe in God and not expect miracles is a contradiction. So, believe and expect miracles. The Christian life is a day-to-day experience of, and journey in the supernatural. When you speak, your words aren’t ordinary, for they contain power, the miracle element to affect and influence your world and cause a change. In Mark 11:23, Jesus said, “You shall have what you say.” In our opening verse, He said, “If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.” The underline...

MONDAY, 29TH JULY. MORE THAN ENOUGH SUPPLY—EVERY DAY

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES MONDAY, 29TH JULY. http://bit.ly/2dZqtLQ MORE THAN ENOUGH SUPPLY—EVERY DAY Give us this day our daily bread (Matthew 6:11).   The verse above was part of the prayer format that Jesus gave to His disciples before the consummation of His redemptive work. The thought in that prayer does suggest that every day, in the mind of God, there’s a blessing for you; there’s more than enough supply for you every day. God isn’t just into “provision”; He’s into supply. He’s not just providing what you need; He supplies all you require; meaning there’s a constant flow into your life. He wants you to have, not only for yourself, but enough to help others. So, for every day in God’s calendar, and in God’s plan and structure of things, there’re blessings for you; supplies set aside for you. Psalm 68:19 says, “Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvati...

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: MONDAY 29TH JULY 2019 THEME: DON’T BE A CARNAL CHRISTIAN. MEMORISE: For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 1 Corinthians 3:3 READ: Philippians 4:4-9 4 Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice. 5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard,...

SUNDAY, 28TH JULY. RELEASING THE RIGHT SOUND CODES

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES SUNDAY, 28TH JULY. http://bit.ly/2dZqtLQ RELEASING THE RIGHT SOUND CODES So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone (Ezekiel 37:7).  To prophesy means to speak words of divine revelation and potency; words that have and give life. Ezekiel understood that it wasn’t just about releasing words, but releasing words with the right sound code; words of the Spirit. He said, “I prophesied as I was commanded.” As he prophesied, the Bible records that there was a noise and the bones came together, bone to his bone. That’s quite profound, for it means every bone had a code, and the moment the word was given, they knew where to fit into, without any mistake. God designed energy to be released through words, but you must have the right words. This is why the ministry of the Spirit, fellowshipping with Him, is indispensable in our lives, because ...

SUNDAY 28TH JULY 2019 THEME: CHRIST’S AMBASSADOR INDEED?

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: SUNDAY 28TH JULY 2019 THEME: CHRIST’S AMBASSADOR INDEED?   MEMORISE: Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: 2 Corinthians 3:2 READ: Acts 4:13-16 13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. 14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it. 15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves, 16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it. MESSAGE Who is an ambassador? An ambassador is simply an official who lives in a foreign country as the representative of his or her own country. Two things are striking in this definition. The fir...

SATURDAY, 27TH JULY. BOLD IN HIS PRESENCE

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES SATURDAY, 27TH JULY. http://bit.ly/2dZqtLQ BOLD IN HIS PRESENCE Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16).   In Luke 18:9-14, the Lord Jesus gave a parable of the Pharisee who was obsessed by his own virtue, and “religiosity,” contrary to a tax collector who humbly asked God for mercy. The Pharisee, priding himself in his self-righteousness, said to God, “…I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess…” (Luke 18:11-13). However, the Publican, feeling unqualified to even stand before God, said, “God be merciful to me a sinner.” In the words of the Master, the Publican went away justified, while the Pharisee was condemned in his pride. But who was Jesus teaching this to? It was the Jews; He was ...

SATURDAY 27TH JULY 2019 THEME: BEWARE OF EXCESSIVE PROFITEERING.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: SATURDAY 27TH JULY 2019 THEME: BEWARE OF EXCESSIVE PROFITEERING.   MEMORISE: He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor. Proverbs 28:8 READ: Proverbs 11:1-4 1A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight. 2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom. 3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them. 4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death. MESSAGE Today, the Spirit of the Lord is warning us to beware of excessive profiteering in business. This is something people do in order to enrich themselves with worldly materials and possessions procured through huge profits. God says it is an act of wickedness when we unduly profit from essential goods and services. You may not know the pain you are inflicting by doing un...

FRIDAY, 26TH JULY YOU’RE DEATH-FREE

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FRIDAY, 26TH JULY. http://bit.ly/2dZqtLQ YOU’RE DEATH-FREE For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:2).  From the verse above, we see that there’re two laws: the law of the Spirit of life, and the law of sin and death. The latter is the law at work in everyone that’s not born again; it promotes death and failure. Sickness and death go together, because when sickness attacks the physical body, death actually sets in and starts destroying it, no matter how slowly However, the law of life is more powerful than the law of death, and that’s the law at work in the new creation. That law was activated when you were born again. So, death isn’t at work in you; life is at work in you now; therefore, you’re death-free. Blessed be God! Look at it this way: when we say an object, maybe a wristwatch, is water-resistant, it means it’s able to resist the penetrati...

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: FRIDAY 26TH JULY 2019 THEME: TWO TRAITS OF A TRUE DISCIPLE.  MEMORISE: If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. John 8:36 READ: John 8:31-36 31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? 34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. 35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. 36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. MESSAGE There are two very important characteristics of a genuine disciple of Jesus Christ which we shall be reflecting on today. The first of these is knowledge of the truth. The Truth is no other person than the L...

THURSDAY, 25TH JULY. KEEP SATAN IN CHECK

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES THURSDAY, 25TH JULY. http://bit.ly/2dZqtLQ KEEP SATAN IN CHECK Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7).   It isn’t for nothing that the Bible tells us in Ephesians 4:27 not to give place to Satan, our adversary. He’s extremely vicious and desperately wicked. He operates absolutely without mercy. Therefore, you must be on the offensive against him and keep him in check. Never be casual with him; cast him out, because there’s no telling how far he’d go if you let him. The Word enjoins us to “Neither give place to the devil” (Ephesians 4:27). Satan doesn’t play fair. We see his viciousness in his dealings with Job. As soon as Job broke the hedge with his negative confessions, Satan swung into action, and in one swoop, he ruined all of Job’s businesses. While Job was still bemoaning the loss of his entire wealth, the Bible says, “…there came als...

Romans 1:32 READ: Acts 5:1-11 1But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? 4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. 5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. 6 And the young men arose, wou...
