For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones (Ephesians 5:30).

There’re some who see the Church as a Gentile nation that got some “ second-class ” salvation from God. Those who hold such erroneous beliefs about the Church don’t understand the mystery of the Church. 

The reason some people don’t understand the Gospel of Jesus Christ about the Church is that the Old Testament, which is what they hold on to, doesn’t explain the revelation of the Church. It was a mystery; it wasn’t revealed to the Old Testament prophets. So, the experts in Judaism don’t know anything about the Church, even though the prophets testified of salvation of Gentiles. To learn about the Church, you’d have to study from the gospels (from the words of Jesus Himself) and then into the epistles where the revelation of the Church as the Body of Christ was unveiled. 

Ephesians 2:16-17 says, “ And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. ” In other words, God preached peace and reconciliation to both the Jews and the Gentiles and brought them together in one body called the Church! It’s a new body made up of people from among the two groups: Jews and Gentiles. However, to be in this body, you must be born again, whether you’re a Jew or you’re a Gentile. 

Neither of the two groups is inferior to the other. Our opening verse says, “ For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones .” It doesn’t get closer than that! The Church is His body. And when He said, “... I will build my church ...” (Matthew 16:18), He was talking about the body of Christ, and that’s you and me, all our brothers and sisters around the world; we’re the expressions of His reality, of His fullness, His grace, glory, kingdom, power and personality. We’re His body! Glory to God! 

 CONFESSION 

 I’m a member of the body of Christ, the expression of His reality, His grace, glory, kingdom, power and personality! He’s my completeness. What an honour it is to be the expression of His fullness! I carry His life and divinity in me—spirit, soul and body—because I’m a member of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones! Praise God.

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.

For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

The Impartation Of Eternal Life - Rhapsody of Realities - Saturday 28th August 2021 by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son (1 John 5:11).
When you believed the Gospel of Jesus Christ and received Him as Lord of your life, He imparted your
spirit with eternal life. Eternal life is the nature of God; the God-type of life. Christianity starts with the impartation of
the life and nature God into your human spirit, right after which you’re awakened to the fatherhood of God; you
come alive in God! That's also the evidence that you’re in the Kingdom of God's dear Son.
The Bible says we were delivered from the domain of darkness, and transferred into the Kingdom of God's
Son (Colossians 1:13). You live in the Kingdom of God now; and you have eternal life now. But if you don't
recognize this reality, you can’t live the Kingdom life; you'll be walking as a mere mortal.
Now that you’re born again, immortality took over mortality: “This truth is now being unveiled by the
revelation of the anointed Jesus, our life-giver, who has dismantled death, obliterating all its effects on our lives,
and has manifested his immortal life in us by the Gospel” (2 Timothy 2:10 TPT).  You don't have two natures in you;
you have one, and it’s the immortal life and nature of God. You’re a divine being encased in a human body; born of
the Word of God.
Don’t think you’re an ordinary person or like your next-door neighbour who isn’t born again just because
you have a similar physical body. No; you’re a partaker of the divine nature. You’re in God’s class of being; it was
His work; He determined for it to be so. It’s what Jesus came to do: He came to give us eternal life and make
fellowship—oneness with God—possible; and He accomplished it. Hallelujah!

Confession

I’m a partaker of the divine nature; an associate of the God-kind. My spirit has been imparted with eternal
life—the God-type of life! Therefore, I live in the realm of incorruptibility, immortality, everlasting joy, peace and
glory; reigning and ruling over Satan, his demons, and the elements of this world. Amen.

Walk And Stay In Truth - Rhapsody of Realities - Friday 27th August 2021 by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This
is a deceiver and an antichrist (2 John 1:7).

The Word of God is truth; you can’t know the Word and be deceived or follow the wrong voice. 1 John 4:1
says, “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets
are gone out into the world.” Always, there’s a light in your spirit when you know the Word of God such that you’re
not misled by false prophets, false teachers, and false brethren.
One of the ways that many are easily misled is through wrong associations. If as a Christian, you start
associating with certain individuals who aren’t supposed to be in your “aion” (your course of life)—individuals who
have a doctrine or training that’s inconsistent with the teaching and truth of the Word,—you’re definitely in a wrong
direction.
With time, such people could become your advisers, and before long, your language will change. This is
how many are motivated or inspired by the spirit of error, and they go into error. The Bible says, “We are of God: he
that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit
of error” (1 John 4:6). Stay in the truth!
The Apostle John was so concerned about God’s people knowing and walking in truth. In 2 John 1:1, he
said, “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.” God wants you walking in the truth because as read in our theme verse, many deceivers are
in the world who don’t confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. They acknowledge neither the incarnation nor
the resurrection of Christ.
To confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh means making confession to this truth, living a life that’s
worthy of this truth, giving glory to God. So, in these last days, walk in truth. John says, “I have no greater joy than
to hear that my children walk in truth” (3 John 1:4).
Prayer

Thank you, precious Holy Spirit, for teaching me the Word and causing me to walk and stay in truth. I’ll
never be deceived, because God’s Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path; that Word is in me,
strong, transforming my life and impacting those around me with the righteousness of Christ, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.

TRUST THE GRACE OF GOD - Rhapsody of Realities - Thursday 26th August 2021 by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus 
(2 Timothy 2:1).

There’s no doubt that as Christians, we’re mightily graced of God; He’s lavished His grace upon us in superabundance. An important question to therefore ask would be, how far can we go with this grace? How much more can we explore this grace? Our theme verse admonishes us to “ be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus .” 

To be strong in the grace of God is to walk in the fullness of His grace. In Acts 3, the Bible gives us a perfect example of how we can use the grace of God and produce supernatural results. Peter and John were going into the temple at the time of prayer, and they found a man who was crippled from birth. The Bible says the beggar, “ Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms ” (Acts 3:3). 

Peter knew this was an opportunity to put the grace of God to work. So, he said to the man, “ Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk ” (Acts 3:6). But the man didn’t quite get up. Then Peter yanked him up, and immediately, his ankle bones received strength, and the man was healed. Blessed be God! He placed a demand on the grace of God, and it worked! 

This is what you’ve got to do in your life. Explore the grace of God in your everyday affairs, in simple matters; use it. Depend on it for the results you expect, the positive outcomes you desire in your life, ministry, work, family, business or academics. 

Grace promotes. Grace lifts; it’ll take you from where you are right now to your next and higher place in and with the Spirit. Remember what He said to the Apostle Paul when he (Paul) was in a predicament: “... My grace is sufficient for thee ...” (2 Corinthians 12:9); in other words, that’s what you need! Trust the grace of God to help you accomplish God’s call and purpose for your life. 

 CONFESSION 

 The grace of God that brings favour, prosperity, health, supernatural increase and liberality is at work in me, so strong. I trust that grace to help me win and set supernatural records today. As I fulfil God’s purpose and do His will, that outward reflection of a divine influence is evident in my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. 

 FURTHER STUDY 

 John 1:16 AMPC 
For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift [heaped] upon gift.

Mirroring Yourself In The Word - Rhapsody of Realities - Wednesday 25th August 2021 by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord (2 Corinthians 3:18). 

The term “ glass ” in the scripture above is the Greek, “ katoptrizomai ” and it means to mirror oneself. The New International Version says, “ And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever- increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit .” It’s talking about the mirror of God, which is the Word of God. 

As you study and meditate on the Word, you’re mirroring yourself! What you see in the mirror is the glory of God. Through meditation, the Word takes root in your spirit, and becomes one with your spirit; it creates a picture in your mind: the image of God’s glory. 

For example, you may have thought you were a dirty sinner, but then you looked in the mirror of God and saw that you’re the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus; you’ve been declared not guilty; divinely acquitted! Blessed be God! This should completely change your perception and cause you to become immediately righteousness-conscious, and walk henceforth in righteousness. 

Perhaps you were told you wouldn’t amount to anything in life; you’re a poor, wretched nobody. But the Word—the mirror of God—shows otherwise. It shows you belong in a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people— handpicked by God to display His manifold wisdom and express the virtues and perfections of divinity (1 Peter 2:9). This is the truth about your personality that you must accept and endorse. Hallelujah! 

Maybe for several nights, Satan has been oppressing you in your sleep, and you thought you needed “ deliverance .” But you look in the mirror and see, “ Giving thanks unto the Father...Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son ” (Colossians 1:12-13). Immediately, that truth should get a hold of your spirit and you begin to exercise dominion over Satan and the forces of darkness. 

There’s so much that happens to, and in your spirit as you meditate on the Word; you’re transformed to become what you see. Hold on to the picture, the image of you that’s projected by the Word; that’s the reality you must keep affirming, regardless of circumstances. 

 CONFESSION 

 I’m perfected in Christ, and I’m the glory of God; I can do all things through Christ and no weapon fashioned against me shall prosper. I’m eternally triumphant and can never be disadvantaged. Therefore, I fix my gaze on the Word and accept only the image and reflection of me that it projects. Blessed be God!

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in
heaven (Matthew 5:16).
In your life, don’t be too quick to find fault with others. Don’t give in to the urge to condemn. The Bible says
the Lord Jesus has been “…ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead” (Acts 10:42). He alone is the
true Judge, and He’s rich in mercy. 
There may be some people around you, perhaps, even in your local church that may not be living right;
don’t judge them. Instead, be the light that wins them over. That’s what Jesus said in our theme verse: “Let your
light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
One of the reasons people may not be living right where you are may be that your light isn’t shining brightly
enough. When a Christian condemns other Christians about their way of life, he may think he’s being spiritual when
it’s actually an expression of carnality. Don’t write anyone off because of their errors; Jesus also paid the price for
their mistakes. He took responsibility for all our wrongs. He alone has the right to judge; yet, He doesn’t condemn
us.
The Bible says “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not
after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (Romans 8:1). People who are carnally minded only see the wrong in other
people. Those people may have actually made mistakes, or are making mistakes, but their hearts may be right with
God such that when they realize their error, and are corrected, they’d quickly repent.
A good example is David; he did something that was wrong, but he was truly repentant and sought and
received the Lord’s forgiveness (Read 2 Samuel 12:1-13). But that wasn’t the case with Saul. When Saul was
rebuked for what he did wrong, he defended himself, and God was angry with him (Read 1 Samuel 15).
The local church isn’t for “perfect” people, but for perfecting people. Come as you are, and the Word of
God will wash you clean; the Word will perfect you. The five-fold ministry gifts listed in Ephesians 4:11-12 are for
the perfecting of the saints for the work of the ministry and for the edifying of the body of Christ.
In the Church, we can recognize when people do something that’s wrong; yet, like Jesus, don’t judge them.
That’s why we share the Word of God (Read 2 Timothy 3:16-17). The Word of God has the ability to correct any
man, and help them redirect their steps. So, share the Gospel; don’t condemn others.

Confession

The love of God is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit by whom I relate with everyone around me
with lovingkindness, compassion and grace. I see the best in people, and by the Spirit, I’m able to impact them with
the grace and glory of Christ; my light shines so brightly and draws men to the righteousness of God expressed in
and through me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

The Power Of Obedience - Rhapsody of Realities - Monday 23rd August 2021 by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the
death of the cross (Philippians 2:8).
God has His structures and systems, and operates by principles, but there’re those who always choose
their own way. The Bible says there’s a way that seems right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death
(Proverbs 14:12). It pays to listen to God and follow His ways. Never walk in disobedience.
For example, as a result of Adam’s disobedience, the Bible tells us “Death ruled like a king …” (Romans
5:17, CEV). The Amplified Classic translation puts it this way: “…because of one man's trespass (lapse, offense)
death reigned through that one….” Well then, as one man's disobedience led to condemnation for all men, so also
did Christ’s act of righteousness lead to eternal life and divine acquittal of all men. Jesus, the second and last
Adam, did this by obedience.
We also read in our opening verse that He “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and
became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.” Remember that Jesus is Himself God, but nothing was
going to make Him rebellious against the Father. He was going to be obedient unto death, even the death of the
Cross. God had to respond to the obedience of Jesus: “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him
a name which is above every name” (Philippians 2:9). He was given the highest title that could be conferred,
because of His obedience. Glory to God!
Obedience is a great blessing in the realm of the Spirit. Being born again, you have an obedient spirit; the
Bible calls us obedient children (1 Peter 1:14). So, it’s natural for you to walk in the light of God's Word, and be
completely yielded to spiritual instructions.

Prayer

My life is consecrated to you, dear Father; thank you for your love for me, and for your glory in my life!
Today and always, I live to glorify you, serving you with whole-hearted devotion, keeping your Word, fulfilling your
purpose for my life, and producing works of righteousness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Reigning In Righteousness - Rhapsody of Realities - Sunday 22nd August 2021 by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

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).
Every child of God is a king in this life, and called to reign in righteousness. Righteousness gives
you the ability to stand in the presence of God without condemnation; to stand in fellowship with God, having
His rightness in your spirit. This is where our audacity of faith comes from.
This is the reason we’re bold to make demands in His Name, decree a thing and have it established.
It’s because our righteousness is of Him, not what you did or didn’t do, but what Jesus did. God declared
you righteous freely, and declared Himself to be righteous by so doing: “To declare, I say, at this time his
righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus” (Romans 3:26).
Hallelujah!
Righteousness makes us masters; it gives us dominion. You’re not a victim, but a victor in Christ
Jesus. John knew this and declared, “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” (1 John 4:4).
God has imparted His nature of righteousness to you, and that’s what makes you like Him. That
nature makes you think, see, and talk like Him. You’ve been raised to His level through Christ. Our opening
verse says, “…they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by
one, Jesus Christ.” You’ve received grace to reign over and above Satan and the elements of this world.
The Bible says He’s made us kings and priests and we shall reign on the earth. Kings reign by
issuing decrees and pronouncements; Ecclesiastes 8:4 says, “Where the word of a king is, there is power:
and who may say unto him, What doest thou?” No wonder the Bible says you shall decree a thing, and it
shall be established unto you” (Job 22:28).

Prayer

Holy and righteous Father, thank you for giving me your righteousness, granting me the ability to
boldly stand before you without guilt, condemnation, inferiority or blame. In righteousness I reign and rule in
life, bringing glory to your Name. I walk in perpetual victory, manifesting your glory in every place, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind ... (Romans 12:2).

Something very significant the Word of God does in your life is the conditioning of your spirit. The Word of God can condition you to think like God. It’s the reason we’re admonished to renew our minds with the Word through meditation. 

When the Word gets into your spirit through meditation, you’re programmed to live accordingly. Circumstances, the world around you, and other voices may try to sway you from the Word, but they won’t succeed if your spirit is conditioned by the Word. 

For example, if you’ve been timid or afraid, meditate on the Word. 2 Timothy 1:7 says, “ For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. ” Keep affirming, “ I have a sound mind; I’m bold, courageous, and full of power. ” Before long, the Word will condition your spirit with boldness, courage and excellence; you’ll become audacious in faith. The Word has conditioned my spirit to think the Kingdom way, to be bold and very courageous; and nothing can change that. 

The Word is the foundation for a great life. The Word in you makes you impregnable to the crises of life; it makes you think, see and act from the view-point of advantage and victory only. With such a mentality, everything you do prospers; you walk in excellence and grace. It makes no difference the challenges you face or who might be working against you; you’re unperturbed, because the Word has conditioned your spirit to know that nothing and no one can successfully stand against you. 

Get the Word into you. Colossians 3:16 says to let the Word of God dwell in you richly . Take your personal study of the Word, and times of meditation more seriously. That way, the Word will mingle with your spirit, grow mightily in you and over any situation you’re dealing with, and prevail. Then you’d find that you’re full of joy every day; full of health and strength. Praise God! 

 CONFESSION 

 The Word of God has transformed my mind and programmed my spirit for greatness, success and excellence. I’m bold, courageous and audacious in faith; I think Kingdom-thoughts and see only from the perspective of the Word, because the Word has cultured my mind and conditioned my spirit. Glory to God!

 Romans 12:2 AMPC 
Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].
