YOU DON’T NEED TESTIMONY FROM DEMONS
📖And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us…The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour (Acts 16:16-18).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
From what we just read, someone might wonder, why was Paul grieved; wasn’t the girl telling the truth? Paul and his companions were indeed servants of the most high God, and that’s what the girl was chanting. Well, Paul perceived that she was speaking by an evil spirit; that’s why he was grieved, turned to the girl and commanded the evil spirit to come out of her in the Name of Jesus, and she was instantly free.
The girl’s words might have been factual, but we don’t need the testimony from demons to tell us who we are. It brings to mind the words of Jesus in John 5:34, "But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved" (John 5:34). The Lord didn’t need human approval, let alone the testimony of demons. Mark 1:23-25 says, “And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.” The Father had already testified of Jesus, and His works also bore witness to His divine mission (John 5:36-37).
Likewise, Paul understood that no testimony from demons, even if factual, was acceptable. Some people might feel a sense of pride or validation if a demon were to recognize their spiritual authority. However, we must understand that our validation comes from Christ, not from the acknowledgement of men or demons.
When the girl declared, "These men are the servants of the most high God," it was not a godly declaration but a deceptive act of the devil hiding behind her voice. Paul’s anger wasn’t from a human point of view; rather, he was spiritually grieved. This is why he commanded the spirit to come out of her. You must also reject any voice of the devil that pretends to speak for God and cast them out when they manifest themselves.
PRAYER Dear Father, thank you for the authority we have in Christ Jesus. I stand firm in the truth of your Word, led by your Spirit always to discern every deceptive voice and reject anything that is not from you. My validation is from Christ alone, and I exercise his authority with boldness and wisdom, in Jesus' Name. Amen

THE PRINCIPLE IS TO ASK AND RECEIVE
📖Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear (Isaiah 65:24 NIV).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
God already knows what’s in your heart. He knows your thoughts and knows the future. He knows everything before you pray. Jesus said, "...for your Father knows what you need before you ask him" (Matthew 6:8 NIV). So why then do we pray? We pray because God established prayer as a means of fellowship between man and God. It’s spiritual.
There’re spiritual principles that’ll never be broken. For example, why don’t we walk in the air? It’s because God established that we walk on the ground by the law of gravity. That’s God’s choice, and it’ll be unwise to question it. So, if God says prayer is necessary, then we must pray.
He said men ought always to pray and not to give up (Luke 18:1). He told us to study the Word, so we do. He told us to walk in the light of His Word; therefore, we must do that. There’re things God has determined, and they’re fixed. Our blessing comes from walking in the light that He has given us.
Since He told us to pray, we’re not supposed to say, “Lord, since you know my mind, I’ll just stay quiet.” The principle is, "…Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you" (Luke 11:9). It didn’t stop there; it says in the 10th verse, "For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."
He didn’t say everyone who “thinks in his mind” shall receive; no. The principle is, “Ask and receive;” we have to operate within its ambits. Consider in the Old Testament; after all the beautiful blessings God promised and had in store for the children of Israel (read Ezekiel 36:21-36), He ended by telling them they’d have to pray: “…I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock (Ezekiel 36:37).
Thank God for the privilege and opportunity of prayer through which we cause the will of the Father to be established in our lives, in the earth, and in the lives of men. Glory to God!
PRAYER Dear Father, I thank you for the privilege of prayer that allows me to partner with you in establishing your will in the earth. As I walk in the light of your Word, your glory is manifested in my life, and I rejoice in the assurance that my prayers are effective, in Jesus' Name. Amen

BELIEVE AND ACT
📖 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned (Hebrews 11:29).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
When Moses and the children of Israel were in front of the Red Sea, Moses began to pray to God for help. But God interrupted him with a command: "Then the LORD said to Moses, "Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground" (Exodus 14:15-16 NIV).
God instructed Moses to act; it was a moment of action for Moses. It wasn’t time to “wait” for God to do something but for Moses to stretch out his hand over the sea and divide it, which he did, leading to the miraculous parting of the Red Sea. Imagine if Moses had started questioning, "Lord, where will the water go? It’s water; it has to flow somewhere."
But the Bible shows us what happened to the water in a song of praise sung by Moses and the Israelites after their miraculous deliverance from the Egyptians at the Red Sea. The waters piled up; it stood up like a wall: "By the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up. The surging waters stood up like a wall; the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea" (Exodus 15:8 NIV).
When you believe, don’t ask too many questions; act! Act on the Word. When doubts arise, shake them off and declare, "All things are possible to me because I believe." Speak God’s truths. Utter words of faith—words inspired in you by the Holy Spirit—and watch God move. Faith is a leap on the Word; you take your step on the basis of what God has said and refuse to be moved by contrary and opposing circumstances. Hallelujah!
PRAYER Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that builds my faith and strengthens my spirit. I refuse to be moved by circumstances, for I walk by faith, not by sight. With the power of the Holy Spirit, I subdue the forces and elements of this world; I’m triumphant always and in every place, impacting my world with the blessings of the Gospel of Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen

A GLOBAL HARVEST
📖 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature (Mark 16:15).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
We’ve learnt in our last two studies that God has a definite number of souls that must be won before the return of the Master. There’s a divine urgency in the Spirit to gather the harvest. Who knows when that last person will believe? The time is drawing near, and we must preach the Gospel around the world with greater fervency and conviction than ever before.
We must reach every soul; the mandate is to reach them all. Romans 11:25 AMPC talks about “...the full number of the ingathering of the Gentiles...”; this is more than people merely hearing the Gospel; it’s about bringing in the harvest, leading people to a personal decision to accept Christ as their Lord and Savior.
We’re in the season of the greatest harvest the world has ever seen. The most exciting time for a farmer is harvest time, and spiritually, this is our harvest time. Souls are being won all over the world and it’s happening fast; the Holy Spirit is moving mightily.
If you’ve not been passionately involved in soul winning, it’s time to realign your priorities; get busy with soul winning. You’d discover now, more than ever, it’s easy to win souls. The Holy Spirit is doing the work. All you need to do is open your mouth, and He will fill it with the right words. The power of God will flow through you to your listeners, and they will hear the Word, believe and be saved. These are exciting times!
The fields are ripe for harvest, and as the labourers, we must be diligent. It’s part of the reasons we’re taking active and daring steps to make sure everyone on earth receives God’s Word during the upcoming ReachOut World Day on December 2nd 2024. Make sure to join us in spreading the transformative message of God's love to every corner of the globe through the distribution of Rhapsody of Realities.
The time is now; reach out to those around you and be bold in sharing the Gospel with them. The ingathering is happening, and we must be part of this divine mandate to cover the earth with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. Let’s reach them all and bring them into the Kingdom.
PRAYER Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of being colabourers with you in this great harvest as Christians all over the world are filled with the urgency, boldness and wisdom to reach out to the lost and bring them into the Kingdom. The Holy Spirit grants us the strategies to share the Gospel effectively for them to know the truth and be saved, in Jesus’ Name. Amen

THE RESURRECTION BROUGHT US JUSTIFICATION
📖 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).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The Bible says in Romans 4:25 that Jesus Christ was delivered for our offences, that is, He died on account of our sins and was raised back to life for our justification. 1 Timothy 3:16 says He was justified in the Spirit. Why did He have to be justified in the Spirit? The reason is that He was made sin for us, as read in our opening scripture. He became the very embodiment of sin.
This is truly astounding because the Bible doesn’t merely say that Jesus was made a sinner or a sin offering but that He was made sin. This means the very character and nature of sin were placed on Jesus. He became the very embodiment of what we were; our nature of sin was what He became.
Until you understand this, you won’t understand the life of the new creation and how, indeed, we became the righteousness of God in Christ. Think about it: The one who knew no sin, who was never involved in sin—He never spoke an unkind word or said the wrong thing—that sinless one was made sin for us so that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. Wow!
After taking on our nature and the punishment for our sin, He was raised from the dead with a new life. And according to the Bible, we were raised together with Him (Ephesians 2:6). When He was raised back to life, God said, "...Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee" (Psalm 2:7, Acts 13:33). This is crucial because it marked when Jesus was born again; He was born again when God raised Him from the dead.
By His resurrection, therefore, we were also resurrected, because we were in Him. His was a vital resurrection, and ours was a legal one. But the moment you received Jesus Christ as Lord, this legal resurrection became a vital experience in your spirit. You were immediately brought out of the domain of darkness and catapulted into the Kingdom of God's Love-Son with legal righteousness; you were justified. His resurrection brought us justification: “Who was betrayed and put to death because of our misdeeds and was raised to secure our justification (our acquittal), [making our account balance and absolving us from all guilt before God]” (Romans 4:25 AMPC). Hallelujah!
PRAYER Blessed Father, I rejoice, knowing that the Lord Jesus was raised for my justification—my acquittal. Now, I’ve been declared not guilty and made righteous in Christ Jesus. I live with the consciousness of my divine nature, celebrating my sin-free life in Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

HE PAID IN FULL FOR EVERYBODY
📖 Therefore let it be known to you, brethren that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins (Acts 13:38 NKJV).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The word "forgiveness" in the verse above is more accurately translated "remission," meaning the removal of sins. The ensuing verse 39 NKJV says, "and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses." What does it mean to be justified?
It means to be declared righteous, to be declared not guilty. Through Jesus Christ, we’ve been acquitted of all accusations. You’ve been absolved of all guilt; no charges against you. It’s for the same reason that the Bible says there’s therefore now no judgement or condemnation for the one who’s in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1).
Consider this: if you owed me some money, and someone else came and paid the debt for you, I would cancel the debt because it was paid on your behalf. The person who paid didn’t owe me anything; you were the one who owed me, but he came and settled your debt. Now, would it be right for me to claim that you still owe me? Of course not! Even though you didn’t pay by yourself, someone else came and paid for you.
The moment he paid, you became free. In the same way, when Jesus paid for our sins, God cancelled the debt and said, "You’re justified!" What does that mean? It means you’ve been discharged and acquitted; no charges against you. So, when we preach the Gospel, we tell the world, “You don’t have to struggle to be righteous; you don’t have to struggle to qualify for God’s blessings; all you need is to embrace what Jesus has done.
Accept His redemptive sacrifice in your behalf and stay in Him. Everything He did was for you. He was wounded for you; He died for you; He was buried for you. He went to hell for you so that you don’t have to go to hell. He was raised from the dead for you, with a new life. Now that you’re born again, you have the same life with which He was raised from the dead. Walk in the consciousness of this new life: “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4).
PRAYER Righteous Father, I thank you for the sacrifice of Jesus in my behalf by which I’ve been made righteous. I walk in and manifest your righteousness. I’m washed, sanctified, glorified and justified, walking in newness of life and in the light of my righteousness in Christ. Hallelujah

THE LAW COULDN’T PRODUCE LIFE
📖 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses (Acts 13:38-39).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Before Jesus came, there was the Law of Moses, not for the whole world but for Israel. Under the Law, you had to obey it to be blessed by God; righteousness was achievable only by obeying all the Law. But according to the book of Hebrews, there was no law that could give life, neither could men fully obey all the law: "For on the one hand, there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness, for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God" (Hebrews 7:18-19 NKJV).
Additionally, Hebrews 8:7 NKJV says, "For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second." Thus, the Law could not set men free. In Galatians 3:21 NKJV, the Apostle Paul tells us that the Law couldn’t give life; it lacked the power to produce righteousness: "Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law."
In Romans 8:3 NKJV, he further explains what was faulty about the law: "For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh." God had to replace the old covenant with a better covenant: "But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises" (Hebrews 8:6 NKJV).
This new covenant was made when Jesus came and paid the ultimate sacrifice with His divine blood. Because of that ultimate sacrifice, Jesus gave us His righteousness. Romans 3:21-22 declares, “But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference.” Hallelujah! Through Him (Jesus Christ), we’ve been justified from all things from which we couldn’t be justified by the Law of Moses. Blessed be God!
PRAYER Dear Father, I thank you for the gift of Jesus Christ, who paid the ultimate price for my sins and granted me His righteousness. I rejoice in the good news of the Gospel, knowing that I am justified, free from all guilt because of His sacrifice. I live in this reality every day, sharing this truth with others and walking in the fullness of your blessings, in Jesus' Name. Amen

IT’S NOT A FANTASY
📖 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed (1 Corinthians 15:51-52).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The Rapture of the Church is going to happen suddenly, any time soon, and I hope you’re getting yourself ready. People will be going about their daily routines and then, suddenly, as quickly as you can blink your eyes, everyone who’s born again will check out of this world. That’s how fast it will be!
Look at the description in 1 Thessalonians 4:16: "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first." There’ll be two trumpet sounds: the first sound, only Christians who have died will hear and come back to life. Then, the second trumpet sound will follow, which is the last one. At the sound of that last trumpet, the Bible says, "Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air."
The Lord will descend from heaven, but He won’t touch down on the earth; instead, He will wait in the air, and we will be caught up to meet Him. All this will happen in a moment. We will be transformed from terrestrial to celestial beings, and then we’re gone, out of this world.
Imagine the headlines after we’re out of here: "They are gone!" The media will be in chaos, trying to find answers and figure out where we’ve disappeared to. But the answers are in the Bible. At that moment, those who’d be left behind would realize what a terrible mistake they had made for not believing in Jesus.
Now is the time to serve the Lord passionately and love Him with all your heart. Everything we leave behind, all the material possessions, the gold, diamonds, credit cards, houses, money, etc., that wasn't used for the Gospel prior to that time will all become meaningless. This is not a fantasy; it’s a reality that’s going to happen, and it could happen at any moment. Live in readiness, with your heart set on things above and not on the fleeting treasures of this world. Live your best and be your best for Jesus Christ, steadfast and unmoveable, diligently doing the work of the Lord.
CONFESSION My heart is focused on the Lord and His soon return; therefore I live in readiness, doing the work of the Lord with faith, hope and love. I’m empowered by the Spirit to share the Gospel and prepare others for the Rapture. Amen.

YOU DON’T NEED TESTIMONY FROM DEMONS
📖And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us…The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour (Acts 16:16-18).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
From what we just read, someone might wonder, why was Paul grieved; wasn’t the girl telling the truth? Paul and his companions were indeed servants of the most high God, and that’s what the girl was chanting. Well, Paul perceived that she was speaking by an evil spirit; that’s why he was grieved, turned to the girl and commanded the evil spirit to come out of her in the Name of Jesus, and she was instantly free.
The girl’s words might have been factual, but we don’t need the testimony from demons to tell us who we are. It brings to mind the words of Jesus in John 5:34, "But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved" (John 5:34). The Lord didn’t need human approval, let alone the testimony of demons. Mark 1:23-25 says, “And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.” The Father had already testified of Jesus, and His works also bore witness to His divine mission (John 5:36-37).
Likewise, Paul understood that no testimony from demons, even if factual, was acceptable. Some people might feel a sense of pride or validation if a demon were to recognize their spiritual authority. However, we must understand that our validation comes from Christ, not from the acknowledgement of men or demons.
When the girl declared, "These men are the servants of the most high God," it was not a godly declaration but a deceptive act of the devil hiding behind her voice. Paul’s anger wasn’t from a human point of view; rather, he was spiritually grieved. This is why he commanded the spirit to come out of her. You must also reject any voice of the devil that pretends to speak for God and cast them out when they manifest themselves.
PRAYER Dear Father, thank you for the authority we have in Christ Jesus. I stand firm in the truth of your Word, led by your Spirit always to discern every deceptive voice and reject anything that is not from you. My validation is from Christ alone, and I exercise his authority with boldness and wisdom, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

BELIEVE AND ACT
📖 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned (Hebrews 11:29).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
When Moses and the children of Israel were in front of the Red Sea, Moses began to pray to God for help. But God interrupted him with a command: "Then the LORD said to Moses, "Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground" (Exodus 14:15-16 NIV).
God instructed Moses to act; it was a moment of action for Moses. It wasn’t time to “wait” for God to do something but for Moses to stretch out his hand over the sea and divide it, which he did, leading to the miraculous parting of the Red Sea. Imagine if Moses had started questioning, "Lord, where will the water go? It’s water; it has to flow somewhere."
But the Bible shows us what happened to the water in a song of praise sung by Moses and the Israelites after their miraculous deliverance from the Egyptians at the Red Sea. The waters piled up; it stood up like a wall: "By the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up. The surging waters stood up like a wall; the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea" (Exodus 15:8 NIV).
When you believe, don’t ask too many questions; act! Act on the Word. When doubts arise, shake them off and declare, "All things are possible to me because I believe." Speak God’s truths. Utter words of faith—words inspired in you by the Holy Spirit—and watch God move. Faith is a leap on the Word; you take your step on the basis of what God has said and refuse to be moved by contrary and opposing circumstances. Hallelujah!
PRAYER Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that builds my faith and strengthens my spirit. I refuse to be moved by circumstances, for I walk by faith, not by sight. With the power of the Holy Spirit, I subdue the forces and elements of this world; I’m triumphant always and in every place, impacting my world with the blessings of the Gospel of Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

SATURDAY 19
THE INGATHERING OF THE GENTILES
📖For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in (Romans 11:25).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
In Romans 11:22-25, Paul speaks about the Jews and Gentiles in a broad sense and how God's plan of salvation unfolds for both groups. In verse 24 (NKJV), he uses the metaphor of an olive tree to describe this process: “For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?”
Israel, as a nation, is currently experiencing "blindness in part" concerning salvation. This doesn’t mean that every individual Jew is blind to the Gospel. In fact, many Jews have believed in Jesus Christ since the day of Pentecost, including all the apostles, who were Jews themselves. The book of Acts records that multitudes of Jews—multitudes of men and women—accepted Jesus as their Saviour but not yet as a nation. That, however, will eventually happen.
Back to what we read in our opening verse; observe that it says “...blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in.” What does this mean? The Amplified Classic provides further clarity: "Lest you be self-opinionated [wise in your own conceits], I do not want you to miss this hidden truth and mystery, brethren: a hardening [insensibility] has [temporarily] befallen a part of Israel [to last] until the full number of the ingathering of the Gentiles has come in."
Sequel to our study yesterday, again we see that there’s a full, definite number of sinners all over the world that God is waiting for us to reach with the Gospel—those who must believe and come to Jesus Christ. That's what He's waiting for. Once that full number is attained, the Trumpet will sound; the Rapture will take place.
This understanding should get you excited and to be diligent in winning souls, knowing that every soul that comes to Christ brings us closer to the fulfilment of God's plan and the Rapture of the Church.
PRAYER Dear Father, thank you for your grace for salvation that’s been poured out all over the world. Souls are being won to Christ in large numbers as your children preach the Gospel in their world and in regions beyond. The veil of darkness is removed, and a full number of the ingathering of the Gentiles is coming in, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

FRIDAY 18
HIS TIMING IS PERFECT
📖 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The Bible talks about some who scoff and mock at the truth: "…in the last days there will come scoffers who will do every wrong they can think of and laugh at the truth” (2 Peter 3:3 TLB). For example, they mockingly ask, "Jesus promised to come back; we’ve been hearing that for generations; where is He? He'll never come!"
They fail to realize that God's sense of time is not like ours. Take 2 Peter 3:8 as an example; Peter reminds us not to be ignorant of one crucial truth: "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." When God communicates a message to you in a certain way and then repeats it in reverse, He’s emphasizing that these are not exaggerations or generic statements. What He’s indicating is that, in prophetic language, a day can represent a thousand years, and a thousand years can be like one day.
The reason Jesus hasn’t come isn’t that God is “delaying” or that He forgot He said Jesus would come. Rather, He’s being patient. He’s not willing that anyone should perish but wants everyone to come to repentance. How gracious the Lord is! 2 Peter 3:15 further emphasizes this; it says for us to account, reckon that the longsuffering (patience) of our Lord is for the salvation of men.
The seeming delay is directly tied to God's desire for salvation. Every moment He waits is another opportunity for someone to turn to Him and be saved. This understanding should stir your heart to share the Gospel with urgency, knowing that God's timing is perfect, and His patience is an extension of His love.
PRAYER Dear Father, thank you for your patience, giving people all over the world the opportunity to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth as it’s in the Gospel. May the message of the Gospel, like never before, have free course, and salvation spread into every corner of the earth, unhindered, until the full numbers of the Gentiles come in, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

THURSDAY 17
THE SUFFERINGS ENDED WITH CHRIST
📖Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow (1 Peter 1:10-11).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
The prophets of old, inspired by the Holy Spirit, testified of the sufferings of Christ and the glory that should follow. Christ already suffered, which means we’re now in the days of His glory. You don’t need to suffer or think that suffering should be a part of your life. The suffering ended with Jesus. He suffered for you to have the transcendent life.
2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “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 8:9 says, “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” No Christian needs to suffer any more in sickness, disease, penury and defeat. You don’t need to “pay” any additional price outside what Christ already paid for you to enjoy an extraordinary life and be all that God ordained you to be.
God loves you, and He has qualified you to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light. It’s your heritage in Christ to live your best to the glory of God. He didn’t create you to suffer. When Jesus hung on the Cross, He said, “...It is finished...” (John 19:30). He announced the end to suffering for all humanity. Today, anyone who believes in Him and accepts His vicarious sacrifice is automatically ushered into the life of glory. No wonder Peter, by the Spirit, said in 2 Peter 1:3 that we’ve been called to glory and virtue. Hallelujah!
His sacrifice was enough. He came, lived and died; He was buried and raised back to life, and He ascended. Now He’s seated in the place of dominion, power and great glory; and we’re seated together with Him. All He wants now is for you to enjoy the glory that resulted from His suffering. There’s nothing more you need to do beyond what He already did. Hallelujah!
PRAYER Dear Father, thank you for the glorious life you have brought me into in Christ. I rejoice that I now live in the glory that followed the sufferings of Christ. I walk in health, prosperity, victory, and manifest your power, love and the fullness of your grace, in Jesus' Name. Amen

TUESDAY 15
BORN WITH THE DIVINE LIFE
📖 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever (1 Peter 1:23).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Many haven't fully grasped who a Christian is; they think a Christian is a mere follower of Jesus Christ; no! A Christian is someone who’s born of the Word and has the life of the Word. James 1:18 NKJV says, "Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures." Recall what the Bible says concerning Jesus, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us…” (John 1:14 NKJV); we were also born in the realm of the Spirit of the same Word.
When you received the Word of God—the Gospel of Jesus Christ—into your spirit, the life that He promised was imparted to your spirit. From that moment, you were awakened to the fatherhood of God. The nature of death ceased, and the life of God took on its operation in your spirit. You became one nature with God. This helps you understand why the Bible says we’re partakers of the divine nature—associates of the Godkind: “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” (2 Peter 1:4).
1 John 5:11-12 says, “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” Life here is the divine life, the God-life; it supplanted your human life when you were born again. The life inside you isn’t the same as the one inside your next-door neighbour who isn’t a Christian. Outwardly, you may look the same, but the life in you is divine, impregnable, indestructible and indomitable.
1 John 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.” The phrase “Ye are of God” means you hail from God, your origin is divine and so is your life. Blessed be God!
CONFESSION I’m born of God’s incorruptible seed—the Word— therefore, I have the life of the Word and walk in the consciousness of my divine nature. The divine life in me has made me indomitable, indestructible and superior to Satan, circumstances and the elements of this world. I am victorious, and I fully manifest the glory of God every day and in every place, in Jesus' Name. Amen

FRIDAY 11
THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS A NAME
📖Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28:19).
Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
Many think that the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Godhead, doesn’t have a name or that “Holy Spirit” is His Name. But no; He does have a name. “Holy Spirit” is the description of His personality, not His name. To say “Holy Spirit” is His name is like you saying your name is “human being"; that doesn’t reveal your personal name. So, calling Him Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit doesn’t tell us His name.
Let me clarify this further. The Father also has a name; "Father" is a title, not a name. For example, your biological father’s name isn’t "Daddy"; Daddy or father only describes his position, function or role, not his individual identity. Similarly, the Holy Spirit has a name that goes beyond the description of His person, role or position, and that name is Jesus.
The Holy Spirit responds to the name of Jesus. It’s important that you understand this. If you want the Holy Spirit to do something, you don’t say, “Holy Spirit, do this or do that”; it’s useless because there’s no place in the entire Bible where we’re instructed to tell the Holy Spirit to do something. Instead, the Holy Spirit moves and works in response to the Name of Jesus.
When you call upon the Name of Jesus, the Holy Spirit manifests the presence of Jesus. This is because Jesus is currently seated on the throne and has remained there since His ascension; but when you call His name, the Holy Spirit moves into operation. Even the Father also responds to the Name of Jesus. The Name of Jesus is the name of the Godhead
. Recall what we read in our opening verse: "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." In carrying out this instruction, the Apostles baptised people in the Name of Jesus. We do the same today. Hallelujah! The Bible says of Jesus, “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell” (Colossians 1:16-19).
Take advantage of this truth today. When you call upon the Name of Jesus, it’s through the Holy Ghost that the presence and power of Jesus are manifested. Hallelujah!
PRAYER Dear Father, I thank you for the revelation of the power in the Name of Jesus. As I call upon the Name of Jesus, the presence of the Holy Ghost is activated in my life, bringing divine intervention and miracles. I live triumphantly every day, knowing that Jesus, the joy of heaven, resides in me and that through His Name, I experience the glory and power of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
