Divine Nature

Thought For Today: Being Conscious of your Spiritual Heritage The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together (Romans 8.16-17). If you’re born again, you have an inheritance and it was bequeathed to you by the Monarch of the universe— the one who said “The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts” (Haggai 2:8). All the wealth in this world actually belong to Him: the money, precious stones, minerals, oil and everything that men believe they own all belong to the Lord and you’re His heir. You’re the heir of the sovereign-mega-rich God. He is the fountain of riches. His wealth is limitless, inestimable and unquantifiable. That makes you richer than those on the Forbes’ list! Hallelujah! Your ‘Papa’s’ wealth isn’t subject to the market forces of this world; it isn’t subject to the oil...

Thought For Today: Life through the Spirit. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you (Romans 8:11). The Holy Spirit is the life-giver. With the Holy Spirit living in you, no sickness ought to stay in your body. Every cancer ought to die! Diabetes and HIV will be cleansed from your blood when you meditate on the truth that the Spirit of God, the life-giver Himself lives in you. In the Old Testament, God said to the people, “the life of the flesh is in the blood…” (Leviticus 17:11). All living creatures, including man are sustained by the blood flowing in their bodies. But this is different for the man who is born again and filled with the Holy Spirit! The Holy Spirit gives life to –quickens – your physical body if He lives in you. Even if your body had been paralyzed, the Holy Spirit will give life to your physical body and restore you t...

Thought For Today: Live From Above And he said unto them, ye are from beneath; l am from above: ye are of this world; l am not of this world (John 8:23). When Jesus told the Jews, “You’re from beneath and I’m from above,” He certainly wasn’t referring to His physical origin but His spiritual origin. He is the Word of God that came from heaven (John 1:1; John 6:33). Now, if you’re born again, you’re born, not of corruptible seed but of incorruptible seed, which is the Word of God that lives and abides forever (1 Peter 1:23). This means you’re born of the Word that came from above and you have the same life from above as Jesus. Thus you can as well declare that you’re from above. This consciousness of your divine origin will change your attitude and the way you live. That’s because when you recognize you’re not of this world, you won’t think, talk, or act Iike the world. Imagine that you go to work with this consciousness that you’re from above and someone in the office offends ...

Thought For Today: Being Conscious that you’re from Above Posted on September 19, 2012 by Christ Embassy Online And he said unto them, ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; l am not of this world (John 8:23). The most sublime and profound communication ever to proceed from anyone came from the lips of Jesus. The Jews in His day couldn’t comprehend the wisdom and audacity with which the Master spoke. That’s because Jesus communicated with a spiritual language while they were men and women of the senses. For example, when He said in the scripture above, “I am from above,” He wasn’t referring to a physical life. He was referring to a spiritual life! Jesus knew that His life didn’t come from Mary, because He was the Word of God made flesh. Conscious of that reality, He could say with boldness that He was not of this world. Now, the Bible says concerning us that as He (Jesus) is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:1 7). If you’re born again, you’re no longer an ...

Thought For Today: Being Conscious That You Are A Blessing Posted on September 16, 2012 by Christ Embassy Online And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing… (Genesis 12:2-3). If you’re born again, you’re more than a blessed man or woman: you’re actually the embodiment of a blessing. The Bible lets us know that the Lord didn’t only bless Abraham but also made him a blessing: “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing” (Genesis 12:2). However, this didn’t just end with Abraham for the Bible says “…If ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29). To be in Christ means you’re born again, thus all the blessings God endowed to Abraham are now your present-hour possession. This is why you’re a bundle of blessings! If the people of the world knew what a blessing you are as a Christian...
