THE PATH TO VICTORY THROUGH CHRIST AND HIS DIVINE NATURE

 
March 6th 2018

Today’s Scriptures: "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." - 1 Peter 1:4


As children of God, we ought to be victorious in adverse situations, such as poverty, sickness and all manner of attacks. The power to victory lies within the divine nature of God – THE WORD OF GOD. The good news remains that the knowledge of Jesus Christ and His redeeming power of Grace have set us free from all earthly perplexities and suffering. This is the reason God manifested Himself in Jesus Christ – to provide a way for us to be victorious in the drama of life. The Word of God is Spirit and Life and God created all things by His Word. It is this Word that took flesh in Jesus Christ. In Jesus, the totality of the divinity of God is manifested. This is why Jesus says; “I and my father are one” (John 10:30).

God has already made a way for each and every one of us to experience His faithfulness and power. In order to tap into this power, we need to experience the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Until this moment, so many are still operating under the water baptism; it is time to experience the fire baptism of the Holy Spirit so we can experience a shift to a new realm of understanding and power. The Holy Spirit gives the anointing that breaks every yoke, the power to take authority in prayers; the power to hold unto God by faith; the power to recognize His Grace upon our lives etc. The word of God is telling us today that the divine nature of Jesus Christ is THE ETERNAL WORD OF GOD which is already in you as spirit– “... Christ in you the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:26-27). Therefore, when we believe and obey Jesus Christ as Lord and savior, we are made to partake of His very nature which lies deep in our souls! Further to this, the scripture says we have been filled with the Christ spirit. It is therefore true that the Christ essence of God is in us, empowering us for victory.( Colossians 2:9-10)


Prayer

Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for the revelation of your word today. Father I ask for your Grace to partake of the divine nature of Christ my Lord and savior. I am quickened by the Holy Spirit with power to overcome and to create every reality of my life. AMEN. .
