PLEAD THE CAUSE OF THE NATIONS

📖Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified (Isaiah 43:26).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Many nations have been entangled in unjust debts and bondage over the years and, as such, can't free themselves because there are forces of darkness that are working against them. There’re many under oppressive financial systems, who constantly see their financial value deplete before their eyes as their assets become worthless. All these are man-made but instigated by spiritual forces.

Except we stand in the gap and use the Name of Jesus Christ to break the power and influence of Satan over these nations and peoples, nothing will change. We’re the only ones who can stop them. We have to use the Name of Jesus to confront and dismantle the works of Satan and effect a change. We must plead the cause of the nations.

Isaiah 43:26 calls us to “put [God] in remembrance” and “plead our cause.” The Revised Standard Version (RSV) says, “Put me in remembrance, let us argue together; set forth your case, that you may be proved right.” TheAmplified Classic echoes the same truth: “Put me in remembrance [remind me of your merits]; let us plead and argue together. Set forth your case, that you may be justified (proved right).”

In the Septuagint, Isaiah 1:18 reads, “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD....” The Message Translation puts it even more plainly: “Come, sit down. Let's argue this out....” This is what we do in intercessory prayer; it’s an argumentative prayer. It requires us to stand in the gap, to present strong reasons why things must happen the way we want them to in the nations of the world. The nations of the world shouldn’t be under the pangs of hardships, pain, terrorism, or artificial food shortage.

The nations shouldn’t be entangled in unjust debts or oppressive systems; that’s why we must be as earnest and passionate as possible about their causes. As we pray for them, there’ll be legal victories for all such nations. So, in your times of prayer, plead the cause of the nations; declare that the will of the Lord prevails in the nations and they’re extricated from oppressive treaties and detrimental associations. Take this seriously.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I pray for leaders of nations who have been subjected to unjust debts and detrimental treaties, that they are immediately liberated from such callous treaties. Thank you for granting them the courage and wisdom to make the right decisions and take the right actions that extricate their nations and people from the economic and political bondage imposed by wicked and unreasonable systems and individuals, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

WEDNESDAY 9

FOREVER IN SAFETY

📖 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 (John 3:16).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Our opening verse implies that anyone who believes in Jesus Christ is severed from perishing. The offer of salvation and promise of eternal life through faith in Christ Jesus is open to every man, woman, boy and girl in this world—regardless of their background, nationality or past actions.

Also, notice the phrase "should not perish"; it’s a legal expression: God has enacted a law that anybody who believes in Jesus should not perish. Let the words of Jesus in this verse always come to your mind. Every so often, declare, "I believe in Jesus Christ, and there’s an order, a law enacted by God that I should never perish. Therefore, now and forever, everywhere I find myself, I’m in safety; I’m separated from perishing!"

The psalmist tells us, "A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked" (Psalm 91:7-8). The Amplified Classic renders it even more beautifully: “A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. Only a spectator shall you be [yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High] as you witness the reward of the wicked.”

It doesn’t matter how strong the flood is or how fierce the fire may be. It doesn’t matter the weapons fashioned against you; you’ve been separated from everything that hurts or binds. No wonder Jesus said, “...nothing shall by any means hurt you” (Luke 10:19). There’s a law of the Spirit to that effect!

You’ve been detached from the debilitating effects and corrupting influences of this world, from the things that ruin men’s lives because you’re in Christ. In Him, you’re in safety forever because your life is hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). Hallelujah!

CONFESSION
Blessed be God! My life is hid with Christ in God! I’m detached from the destructive forces of this world, severed from perishing because I believe in Jesus Christ. I walk in blessings, divine protection, joy, and peace, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

TUESDAY 8

MINISTERS OF RECONCILIATION

📖To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:19).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Human nature loves the message of condemnation because it recognizes its imperfections. For example, when you preach and tell people, "We’re all sinners; no one is righteous except God”; the natural response from many would be, “Yes; it’s true.” Such folks get jittery when you excitedly talk about the soon return of the Lord because they’re not sure of their salvation. They’ve been placed in doldrums and incertitude.

But read Paul’s submission in the opening scripture. It says, "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation" (2 Corinthians 5:19). Observe that it says God has committed unto us “The ministry of reconciliation,” not the ministry of condemnation. This ministry testifies that God was in Christ in His redemptive work, not counting men’s sins against them; rather, He laid all their sins on Jesus. Jesus bore the sins of the whole world. When He died, everyone died in Him. He paid the full penalty for sin for the whole world. Therefore, in the mind of justice, we all died. This is the reason God isn’t counting the sins of men against them.

So, when the devil tries to deceive you and stir thoughts of condemnation in you, tell him that God has reconciled the world to Himself, not counting men’s sins against them, and anyone who believes is no longer condemned but made the righteousness of God in Christ: “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

This is the message He wants us to tell everybody: righteousness has been made available in Christ Jesus because He (God) Himself paid for man’s sins in Christ Jesus. That’s what we read in our opening scripture: “To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.”

Notice the term "imputing"; it’s a legal term, meaning "to charge with." God is not charging people with their trespasses. That’s why it’s called “Good News.” You’re an ambassador of the message of reconciliation; you have the ministry of reconciliation, not condemnation. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege to be the bearer of your message of reconciliation. As an ambassador of the Kingdom, I spread faith, hope and love, boldly declaring the Word of salvation that catapults sinners from the domain of darkness into the glorious liberty of the sons of God, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

MONDAY 7

FERVENT IN SOUL WINNING

📖 ...the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day (Proverbs 4:18).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
In Matthew 5:16, the Lord Jesus said, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” The Bible says in Romans 12:11, “Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.”

Serving the Lord as the above verses say, the passion and inspiration of the Spirit in your life is contagious. It overflows and becomes a source of inspiration for those around you. You naturally become a soul winner. When you speak, you pour out spirit and life, impacting your hearers with the power and blessings of the Gospel of Christ.

Now, that inspiration is something you must maintain. And one of the ways to maintain it is keeping yourself filled with the Spirit always as Ephesians 5:18-21 teaches (study the entire reference). When you’re filled with the Spirit, you proclaim the Word of God with boldness. That’s the evidence of being filled with the Spirit as seen in the lives of the Apostles (Acts 4:31).

When you’re truly inspired by the Holy Spirit, you’re a bold and effective witness for Jesus Christ; you never stop winning souls. True soul winners don’t retire or grow weary in their mission; they’re forever active doing the Lord’s work. 1 Corinthians 15:58 says, “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord….” Your soul-winning efforts should always be on the increase because you’re filled with the Spirit.

If you were winning three souls per week, you should aim to increase that number, perhaps to 10, or maybe even 30. Maintain your zeal and fervour for soul winning. Remember, soul winning is God’s heartbeat; it’s the most important assignment that He committed to our trust. Therefore, do it with passion, diligence and in the power of the Holy Spirit.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of being a soul winner. I am inspired by your Spirit to continually share the Gospel with those around me. I refuse to grow weary or retire from this divine calling. Your Word flows through me like rivers of living water, bringing life and salvation to those in my world, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

RIVERS OF LIVING WATER ISSUING OUT OF YOU

📖He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water (John 7:38)

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The words of Jesus in the scripture above should be real and tangible in the life of every Christian. It says out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water. How important it is to have these rivers of living water issuing out of you! If you read further, the 39th verse explains that Jesus spoke of the Holy Spirit: "But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified" (John 7:39).

Isaiah 55:10-11 also gives some insight into this. It says, "For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth...." Just as rain pours down to nourish the earth, so does the Word of God pour out to fulfil God’s purpose. Proverbs 18:4AMPC tells us, "The words of a [discreet and wise] man's mouth are like deep waters [plenteous and difficult to fathom], and the fountain of skillful and godly Wisdom is like a gushing stream [sparkling, fresh, pure, and life-giving]." Notice the underlined portion; it underscores the power and life in words that are inspired by the Holy Spirit.

In Acts 10:44, Luke narrates a remarkable incident that happened while Peter was preaching in the house of Cornelius: "...the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word." The words Peter spoke were empowered by the Holy Spirit, pouring out like a gushing stream, bringing life to all those who heard them.

When you receive the Holy Ghost, you minister the Spirit through your words. Your words are spirit and life, just as Jesus said of His own words (John 6:63). Hallelujah! Jesus’ words opened blind eyes (John 9:6-7), cast out demons (Mark 5:1-20), raised the dead (John 11:43-44), and calmed the raging tempest (Mark 4:39). He spoke to nature, and it obeyed (Matthew 8:26-27). Your words carry the same power. You can speak to your body, command growths to disappear, and declare healing in your heart, lungs, and kidneys. Practice speaking the Word of God over yourself and your circumstances. Let the rivers of living water issue out of you; these are words of life empowered by the Holy Spirit.

PRAYER 
Dear Father, thank you for the gift of the Holy Spirit who fills me with power and purpose. My words are spirit and life because of your Spirit within me. I continually speak words that align with your truth and bring transformation to my world, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

TRUE FULFILMENT IS IN CHRIST

📖 ════════  
For in him we live and move and have our being... (Acts 17:28 NIV)

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Man was made in the image of God, and that’s why even the natural man possesses incredible capacity and potentials. Throughout history, we've witnessed remarkable advancements and innovations that have shaped the world. Consider man’s accomplishments through the ages in technology, arts and sciences.

These achievements are undoubtedly impressive, but there’s more to life than these. We know that despite accomplishing amazing feats, many still find themselves grappling with an underlying sense of emptiness; they create things to make life easier, thinking it will bring happiness, yet they find themselves dissatisfied.

For instance, think of a professor who has acquired immense knowledge, yet he struggles with the meaning of “life.” He has no peace or satisfaction despite his intellectual prowess and tragically decides to end his life. How sad! This stark example illustrates that no matter how much knowledge or success one attains, true fulfilment is in Christ and Christ alone.

Even today, many have gotten to a point where they’re asking, “Why are we here?” They’ve accumulated so much on earth, but they are still searching for fulfilment. Or consider those with so much fame who still find themselves asking, “Where’s the joy?” History is replete with stories of wealthy individuals who, despite their riches, felt empty and unfulfilled.

There was a very wealthy man many years ago who came from a wealthy family. Despite all his riches, he said, "I don’t know why I am not happy. Maybe I should try poverty because that is one thing I have never experienced." He gave up everything and decided to live as a hermit in isolation. But even then, he didn’t find joy because true fulfilment in life isn’t found in this world but in Christ.

Christ is the source of all joy, all peace, and all fulfilment. Outside of Him, everything is fleeting and meaningless. In Him, you find the meaning of life, the purpose for which you were created, and the true joy that transcends circumstances. In Christ, you find all of God’s goodness. Hallelujah!

PRAYER 
Dear Lord Jesus, I thank you for being my source of true fulfilment, joy and peace. You’re my reason for being; my satisfaction and pure delight come from my relationship with you by the Holy Spirit. And I thank you for helping me bring many others into the same glorious life of purpose, eternal joy and true fulfilment. Amen.

PRAYING FOR NEW CONVERTS

📖Wherefore also we pray always for you... That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ (2 Thessalonians 1:11-12).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
It’s important for us to always intercede for those who may still be ignorant or yet to come to maturity in the things of the Spirit. It brings to mind the words of the Apostle Paul in Galatians 4:19, “My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you.” He constantly prayed for them to become rooted and grounded in Christ. This is the will of the Father.

In his letter to the Christians in Colossae, he prayed a beautiful prayer of the Spirit, saying, "For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding" (Colossians 1:9). When you intercede for fellow Christians like this, you’re actually praying the will of God.

However, there may be things in those people's lives that may prevent God's actions from taking place or even His will from being manifested. It could be their ignorance, as Hosea 4:6 states, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge...,” or even their wilful disobedience. For many new converts or those still growing in the Faith, spiritual priorities may not yet be clear. They may not fully appreciate the importance of attending church services or studying the Bible regularly.

In such cases, our intercession plays a pivotal role. By praying for them, we create the avenue for God to intervene in their lives, to open their hearts and minds to His truth and wisdom. When you pray this way, Christ takes root in their hearts, and they become synchronized with the perfect will of God. As an intercessor, you’re persistent; you keep praying that they walk worthy of the Lord, pleasing Him in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing in their knowledge of God (Colossians 1:10).

Even now, spend some time to pray for new converts in your local church and around the world, that they be established in the Faith, doing the will of the Father, active in the work of the ministry, and bringing glory to God. Pray that they grow in the Word, firmly rooted and grounded in the love of Christ, and that the Lord their lives for His glory. Amen.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I pray for those who are new in the Faith or struggling in ignorance, that they’ll be filled with the knowledge of your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. I pray that Christ dwells richly in their hearts by faith, and that they walk worthy of you, bearing fruit in every good work and growing in their knowledge of you day by day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

“When you come to Christ, He doesn’t destroy your personality. Instead, He puts power in your personality and makes you effective and influential. He loves you the way you are. When you come to Him, He takes away the sin nature and all that’s associated with it, and He puts in you the desire and ability to be a righteous person (the ability to do right) and the freedom to choose. He sets you at liberty to serve God as you should. Glory to God!”

THE MANIFESTATION OF TRUTH

📖 The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth; For the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever (2 John 1:1-2).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
If you’d read the entire second epistle of John you’d observe something in the first four verses: the word "truth" is emphasized repeatedly with a total of five mentions. Clearly, there's a significance to this. Then in his third epistle, he continues with the same emphasis on “the truth.” Why so much emphasis on “the truth”?

In John 18:37, Jesus told Pilate that He came to bear witness to the truth, and everyone that is of the truth hears His voice. Pilate then asked Him, "What is truth?" John must have really pondered the answer. He must have recalled what Jesus said in the fourteenth chapter, "...I am the way, the truth, and the life..." (John 14:6). He also would have recalled Jesus' prayer to the Father in John 17, when He said, "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth" (John 17:17).

So, John wasn't merely captivated, intrigued or enthused by truth; he embraced it fully. He related and fellowshipped with “the Truth.” In 1 John 1:1-2, he talked about seeing and handling the Word of life, and the Word is truth!

So, when Jesus walked the earth, He embodied God's truth. He was the manifestation of truth, the will of the Father unveiled to us. If you ever wanted to know the will of God, look at Jesus. If it’s true that Jesus was the manifestation of the truth, what does that make you? Paul, in 2 Corinthians 4:2, said something profound about himself and his companions, declaring that by the manifestation of the truth they commended themselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

What Paul was saying in essence is, "This is our life— we’re the manifestation of the truth." Yes; you are! You were born to express the will of the Father to the world. This is God's vision and plan for you. Your life and your everyday walk is the manifestation of the truth. This is how He sees you, and this is the life that you must live. When you wake up every day, declare, "I’m the manifestation of the truth. I’m the manifestation of the will of God." Hallelujah!

CONFESSION
I’m the manifestation of the will of the Father; I live each day in alignment with God’s truth and my life reflects the glory and realities of the Kingdom of God. I’m born of God’s truth and uphold truth in every circumstance and situation, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV).


Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
You need to understand something important about your life: you’re a child of divine destiny; you’re not living a life of chance. The sequence and events in your life are orchestrated by God. Your role is to recognize these divine orchestrations and flow accordingly; follow the path that He’s prearranged for you. Predestination is at work in you.

Ephesians 2:10 (AMPC) says, “For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].” Romans 8:29 NIV says, “For those God foreknew he also predestined….” When you’re synchronized with His will, you’ll experience the blessings and maximum fulfilment He’s ordained for you.

The best place to be in life is at the centre of God’s will. When you have that awareness, you’ll always be filled with joy, confident that come what may, you’ll always win. You’re a victor forever because you’re in God’s place, in God’s time, fulfilling God’s purpose in God’s way. This understanding is vital. When you’re in sync with God’s will, you don’t fret or worry; you’re at peace at all times and never in panic-mode because you know that you’re operating on God’s timetable not man’s timetable.

Your life is designed by God to move from glory to glory, which is why we’re charged to always be thankful. You’ll always overcome any adversity that comes against you because as one who’s born again, everything works for your good: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28 NIV). Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I align myself with your perfect will through the Word. Everything in my life is working out for my good because I am in your plan, at the right place and time. My heart is filled with peace and confidence, knowing that I am fulfilling your purpose in every step I take, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES

WEDNESDAY 2

TAKE AS MUCH AS YOU WANT

📖For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The word “receive” in the verse above is the Greek “Lambano,” and it means to take possession of something and make it yours; to seize or take a hold of something by yourself and make it yours. It doesn’t mean passively waiting in anticipation for something to drop in your hands. The Bible says those who “lambano” abundance of grace—an overflowing of grace—and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life.

How much grace do you want and for what do you require it? The Lord is saying to you, “Go for it! Take as much as you want!” It reminds of Paul’s counsel to Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:1; he said, “...be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” In other words, take advantage of the grace; take as much of it as you want. When it comes to grace, it’s as much as you can take, but for righteousness, it’s the same for everybody.

That’s why for grace, you don’t find the use of the definite article before the word “abundance”; it is “they which receive abundance of grace,” not “the abundance of grace.” But for righteousness, there’s a definite article: “they which receive…the gift of righteousness….” However, in both cases, you don’t wait or “try”; you TAKE possession.

Don’t “try” on your own to become righteous because no matter how much you try, you’ll never attain righteousness on your own. Rather, embrace His righteousness; take His righteousness and abundance of grace. Receive grace for your industry, to be a master of the Arts, a master of Sciences, a master in your job, business or career. Receive grace to be a maestro, an enigma in your field such that others would wonder at you. That’s what God wants for your life.

As you function in His abundant grace, He brags with you and shows you off to the people of the world and even to angels and principalities: “To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God” (Ephesians 3:10). Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Gracious Father, I thank you for your abundant grace at work in my life, which causes me to excel in all that I do and fulfil my purpose in Christ. I’m a wonder to my world because I’m piloted by your grace, which continually multiplies in my life through my knowledge of your Word, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES

TUESDAY 1

THREE KEY ELEMENTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

📖For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The nature of God has manifold descriptions, and one of such is that which demonstrates His rightness and perfection. God just can't be wrong because He is God. He's the yardstick for measuring what is right, the reference for rightness. In everything and all situations, He's perfect, just and right. That's His character!

Secondly, righteousness is the nature of God that's imparted to the human spirit to produce in him the rightness of God. Righteousness is a gift, and when God imparts a human spirit with it, that person will immediately have the rightness of God in his or her heart and just know what is right.

Thirdly, righteousness gives or produces right standing. Right standing is that ability to stand before God without condemnation or inferiority. No ordinary man can stand before God until God gives him the ability to stand in His presence and talk with Him without fear, inferiority, or condemnation.

Someone might ask, what if I feel condemned or inferior before God? That you feel a sense of guilt, condemnation or inferiority in the presence of God doesn't mean you're guilty, condemned or inferior. Let me tell you what to do if you feel overwhelmed by such negative emotions: get into the Word of God and begin studying and meditating on the Word. Before long, the Word will rid you of those wrong emotions of the senses.

The Word of God is a cleanser (John 15:3); it builds your faith and confidence (Acts 20:32). Also remember what the Bible says: "For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things" (1 John 3:20). God's Word is greater than your emotions. It imparts to you the truth about who you are. That knowledge destroys every sense of guilt, condemnation, or inferiority, and inspires the confidence of the Spirit in you. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Thank you, Lord, for the gift of righteousness. I rejoice because I have your nature in me, which produces rightness in me and gives me the ability to stand before you without fear, condemnation or inferiority. Your Word imparts to me the confidence of the Spirit, and I walk in the boldness and assurance that come from knowing that my righteousness is of you. Hallelujah!

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES

MONDAY 30

BY HIS POWER AND ENABLEMENT

📖 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you (John 16:23).

Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The Lord Jesus taught us to pray in His Name and not through His Name. To pray through His Name is to make Him a medium. To pray in His Name is to exercise the power of attorney He’s given to us (John 16:23-24). Someone might ask, “What then does the Bible mean in Hebrews 13:15, where it says for us to offer to God a sacrifice of praise through Jesus Christ?”

That’s a completely different thing and it doesn’t also suggest making Jesus a medium. It says, “Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name” (Hebrews 13:15 NIV). First, our understanding of the scripture must go beyond semantics. When it comes to offering praise to God “through” Jesus Christ, one option might be, "Oh Lord Jesus, give my praise to the Father for me." Another could be, "Oh Father, I praise you through Jesus Christ." While these phrases may seem viable to the senses, spiritually, they both are ridiculous.

For instance, in Hebrews 9:14, the Bible tells us how Jesus offered Himself to God through the Holy Spirit. This means He offered Himself by the power or the enablement of the Holy Spirit. He did it through the agency of the Holy Spirit’s power. In the same way, when we do whatever we do to the Father through Christ Jesus, it’s not about Christ being a medium. It's us functioning in His power and enablement.

For example, when Paul says, "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me," (Philippians 4:13) he meant that it’s through Christ’s power and enablement that he accomplishes all things. That’s our testimony. Our sufficiency is of Him (2 Corinthians 3:5), which means we function by and through His divine ability. Only sinners need a medium, which Jesus is to them (John 14:6); but once in Christ, you no longer need a medium; you’re united with Christ in God. You’re a member of His body, the church. He is in us, and we are in Him. We have become inseparably one with Him. He gave us His Name to live by, to pray, and to offer our praises.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of praying in the Name of Jesus. I recognize the power and authority you have given me to live and do all things in His Name. I consciously act in alignment with this divine authority, understanding that I am empowered by Christ to accomplish all things. My life continually reflects your will and brings glory to you, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
