💎✨RHAPSODY OF REALITIES SATURDAY, MARCH 8TH 2025. PASTOR CHRIS.💎✨

TOPIC : ✨THE FULL PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL✨

SCRIPTURE📖 :...So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ. It has always been my ambition to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else's foundation (Romans 15:19-20 NIV).

The Apostle Paul, in the verse above, tells us something profound about the extent of his missionary work. His declaration that he had "fully preached" the Gospel signified that he had delivered the entirety of Christ's message, leaving no stone unturned in his evangelistic efforts.

In other words, from Jerusalem, the heart of the Jewish Faith, to Illyricum, Paul travelled extensively, winning souls, establishing churches and nurturing Christians in the Faith. His commitment to preaching the Gospel in regions where Christ had not been named was driven by a desire to reach the unreached, fulfilling the Great Commission given by the Lord Jesus to "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations..." (Matthew 28:19).

Paul understood the urgency of spreading the Gospel, knowing that many were yet to hear the life-changing message of salvation. Later on, in the 23rd verse of Romans 15, He affirmed that he had "no more place" to preach the Gospel in those regions. It indicates that he had faithfully executed the task entrusted to him by God, and now, he was ready to move on to new territories. Paul preached the Gospel in such a way that the message had taken root: “But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you” (Romans 15:23).

One of the remarkable things the Lord is gracing us to do this year is to complete the full preaching of the Gospel in all nations. Believe this and identify your role in it. In Matthew 24:14, the Lord Jesus said, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." Hallelujah!

                         PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the opportunity to be part of the great commission to preach the Gospel to all nations. This year, we will see the fullness of your message reach every corner of the earth. Christians and churches everywhere are empowered by your Spirit to boldly proclaim your truth, and the knowledge of your Word covers the earth as the waters cover the sea, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

💎✨RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FRIDAY, MARCH 7TH 2025. PASTOR CHRIS.💎✨

TOPIC : ✨FILLED WITH ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD✨

SCRIPTURE :📖And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God (Ephesians 3:19).

Ponder again what we just read; do you realize what it means to be filled with all the fullness of God? That means every part of you—spirit, soul, and body—is completely immersed in God and inundated with God. You’re replete with God. The word "fullness" here is translated from the Greek "pleroma," meaning "replete," indicating a maximum load with nothing left out. Thus, you’re complete, full, and whole in God. You’re filled with the maximum load of God!

In Colossians 2:10, Paul affirms, "And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power." You are "pleroo"—complete in Him. Your whole being, every fibre of your existence, is now replete with Christ. This is the life of the Christian. This reality means that as Christians, we’re united with Christ in such amazing profundity. We’re not only filled with Christ, but we are His body.

Ephesians 1:22-23 further explains this; it says, "And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all in all." The Church, the body of Christ, is the fullness of Him who fills everything. Christ fills everything, and as the Church, we are the embodiment of that fullness. Christ is in us, and we are in Him. No wonder Ephesians 5:30 says, "For we are members of his body, of his flesh and of his bones."

The Greek word translated members is “melos,” and it means limbs. This speaks of our intimate union and inseparable oneness with Christ. We’re not separate from Him; we’re one with Him. This union is so complete that it removes any possibility of sickness, disease, or failure. I mean, think about it: If you’re replete with Christ, where will sickness or disease come from? How can anything unclean exist in you when the fullness of Christ fills every part of your being?

His life flows in you; this is the true essence of Christianity. Every day, walk in the consciousness that Christ fills every part of your life. He is not just with you, but He’s in you, and you’re in Him. His fullness is your reality, and you’re to live according to that reality.

                               PRAYER 

Dear Father, thank you for revealing to me the truth that I am filled with the fullness of Christ. I am replete with you—spirit, soul and body, being inseparably one with you. Sickness, disease, failure and defeat have no place in my life, because I am complete in Christ. I walk in this fullness every day, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

TOPIC :✨GOD’S ULTIMATE PLAN FOR THE CHURCH✨

SCRIPTURE📖 :Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ_ *(Ephesians 4:13)

The verse above reveals God’s purpose to bring us—the Church—to a state of maturity where we’re no longer children, tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine but established in the faith. This is His ultimate plan; to bring us into the fullness of Christ. That’s why, Ephesians 4:11-14 says, *“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.”*

Observe what it says in the 13th verse: *“Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge (Greek: epignosis) of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.”* This isn’t a vague or abstract promise. It’s a definite reality that God is leading the Church into. Contrary to the belief that perfection is unattainable on earth, the Scripture clearly states otherwise. 

The Word declares that we can come into perfection, not when we get to heaven, but here on earth. And God’s work in us is to this intent and purpose. The Lord is bringing the Church into that state of maturity, and then the Rapture will take place. This doesn't mean there won't be spiritual babies in the Church nor does it mean that those who have just given their hearts to Christ would suddenly grow into maturity. No! The Spirit is dealing here with the nationhood of the Church—the body of Christ.

The sum total of our understanding, our walk in Christ, our consciousness, will be one of those who have come to maturity, completeness, wholeness and perfection. This is God’s vision for the collective body of Christ, where the body of Christ as a whole reaches the *“...measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ”* (Ephesians 4:13). Hallelujah!

                       CONFESSION

_I walk in the fullness of Christ, manifesting His nature; I live in the consciousness of this glorious reality, and I declare that the church is moving collectively into the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ even as the Lord’s return is imminent. Amen._

*2 Corinthians 3:18* 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.

*Hebrews 6:1* Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

💎✨RHAPSODY OF REALITIES WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5TH 2025. PASTOR CHRIS.💎✨TOPIC: ✨ACKNOWLEDGE THE GOOD IN YOU✨

💎✨RHAPSODY OF REALITIES WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5TH 2025. PASTOR CHRIS.💎✨

TOPIC: ✨ACKNOWLEDGE THE GOOD IN YOU✨

STRUCTURE 📖:That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus_ *(Philemon 1:6)*

In our previous study, I explained the insightful words of the Apostle Paul in Romans 15:29, where he expressed his intentions regarding his visit to the Roman church: *"And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ."* If Paul could walk in the fullness of the blessings of the Gospel, so can you! It’s your calling. Many are however at sea as to how to walk in this reality; how to walk in the fulness of the blessing of the Gospel of Christ!

But our theme verse reveals an important truth that’s very key. It says, *“That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.”* That means the sharing or participation of your faith, the exercise of your faith will become effectual through the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. In other words, the way to make your faith effectual is by acknowledging the good things in you in Christ Jesus. 

The word *“acknowledge”* is translated from the Greek *“epignōsis.”* It means to have full discernment, a recognition. It is the knowledge in which the knower relates to that which is known; it's a knowledge that involves a relationship with the object of knowledge. It is a precise, accurate and correct understanding of what God has made you and what He has deposited in you through the Gospel.

Now that you're born again and in Christ Jesus, there are certain good things within you that He wants you to take knowledge of. The Word of God and the ministry of the Holy Spirit remain the only reliable source for you to acquire this kind of knowledge. Again, in Colossians 1:9, Paul uses the same word, epignosis: *"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, (Greek: epignosis) of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding."*

Walking in the fullness of the blessing of the Gospel requires active acknowledgement, full and precise knowledge of the good things within you in Christ. Blessed be God!

*PRAYER*

_Dear Father, I thank you for the good things that are in me. I acknowledge and walk in the fullness of these blessings, producing results in my life and being a blessing to others. Through the Word and the Spirit, I gain accurate knowledge of my inheritance in Christ and live in the reality of it, in Jesus’ Name. Amen._

*FURTHER STUDY:*

*Ephesians 1:3* Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

*2 Peter 1:3-4* According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: *4* 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.

*Colossians 1:27* To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

💎✨ RHAPSODY OF REALITIES TUESDAY, MARCH 4TH, 2025. PASTOR CHRIS. 💎✨

TOPIC :✨THE FULLNESS OF THE BLESSING OF THE GOSPEL ✨

SCRIPTURE :📖 *_"And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ" (Romans 15:29)._*

The Apostle Paul's declaration in the verse above is absolutely profound. He spoke with certainty, saying, *_"...I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ."_* This statement reveals the possibility of walking in the fullness of the blessing of the Gospel of Jesus Christ while on earth.

Paul did not say he would pray for this to happen; he confidently declared it as a reality he walked in. What does it mean to walk in the fullness of the blessing of the Gospel? It signifies living in the complete manifestation of the inheritance of Christ, demonstrating His blessings, power and divine nature. This isn't an experience reserved for us in the sweet-by-and-by; this is to be experienced on earth, and in this time.

Paul's confidence stemmed from his understanding of our life in Christ. His writings are a testament to this reality. For example, he said, *_"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me"_* (Philippians 4:13). He also affirmed, *_"...I have all, and abound..."_*(Philippians 4:18). These are the words of someone walking in the fullness of Christ's blessings. This fullness is not theoretical; it is real and attainable.

However, many miss out because they yield to fear or follow the wrong path. Paul understood his identity in Christ. He declared, *_"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."_* (Galatians 2:20). What a consciousness!

This understanding made Paul bold, unstoppable and unwavering. He walked in righteousness and maintained oneness with the Holy Spirit. He lived a life free from frustration and defeat, saying, *"Christ in me, the hope of glory"* (Colossians 1:27). This is the life we are called to live---a life of victory, dominion and glory in the fullness of the blessing of the Gospel of Christ. So today, live in the consciousness of your divine Inheritance, demonstrating God's glory, power and righteousness. Be strong, courageous and victorious, walking in complete oneness with the Holy Spirit. *Hallelujah!*

           *PRAYER*

*_Dear Father, I thank you for calling me to walk in the fullness of the blessing of the Gospel of Christ. I live in the consciousness of my divine Inheritance, demonstrating your glory, power and righteousness in every area of my life. I am bold, fearless, and victorious, walking in complete oneness with the Holy Spirit, in Jesus' Name. Amen._*

TOPIC :✨PRIORITIZE CHURCH ATTENDANCE✨

SCRIPTURE :📖Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching (Hebrews 10:25).*_

One of the things you must become more conscious of and take very seriously as we anticipate the Lord’s soon return is what the Bible says in Hebrews 10:25 (NIV), _*"Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching."*_ If you’ve been found wanting in this aspect, not taking church attendance very seriously, you need to change and make it a priority.

Be regular with your church attendance, because in the house of God, you’ll learn the Word of God and be established in the Faith. This isn’t optional but a clear instruction for every child of God. Today, there’s so much information competing for your attention. This is one more reason why you must prioritize church attendance. Don’t assume you’ll know it by merely thinking about it. The Scriptures have been given to educate, inform, and culture us in the things of God. The Lord Jesus said, _*"Search the Scriptures..."*_ (John 5:39) and Paul admonished, "Study the Word" (2 Timothy 2:15). What better way to learn and share the Scriptures than with other Christians in Church!

In the Old Testament, God commanded the children of Israel to gather at appointed times. In the New Testament, the principle remains; you must present yourself in the house of God. It’s not about hopping from one church to another every Sunday; rather, be committed and actively participate in the activities in your church family.

Get introduced to the leaders of the church and make yourself known. Identify with the family of God. The love you have for other Christians is a testimony in your spirit that you’ve passed from death to life as 1 John 3:14 says, _*"We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death."*_

Present yourself in the house of God and make yourself available for the Spirit of God to minister to you through the Word. The Bible describes the church as the pillar and ground of truth, the custodian of God’s revelation. So, prioritize church attendance and let the Word of God transform your life from glory to glory. Hallelujah!

              *PRAYER*

*Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of belonging to your family. I commit myself to learning and living by your Word, presenting and making myself a committed member of a church family, and demonstrating your love to others. Your Word cultures me, and I walk in its light daily, bearing fruit that glorifies you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

💎✨RHAPSODY OF REALITIES SUNDAY, MARCH 2ND 2025. PASTOR CHRIS.💎✨

TOPIC : ✨BECOME MORE CONSCIOUS OF CHRIST IN YOU✨

SCRIPTURE 📖:And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us... (John 1:14).

When we say the Christian is one in whom Christ lives, the problem is that not many even know what Christ means or who Christ is. What is the meaning of the word Christ? Christ is the Hebrew word for Messiah, and the Messiah means the Anointed One. In the Old Testament, He was called Messiah, and in the New Testament, He is called Christ, but they both refer to the same person.

Whom the Jews understood to be Messiah was what the Prophet Daniel called the “Son of Man.” When Jesus referred to Himself as the “Son of Man” who would be “lifted up,” meaning crucified, the Jews questioned Him, asking, “Who is this Son of Man?” They thought the Christ would live forever. The Bible says in John 12:23, 32-34: “…Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified…And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This he said, signifying what death he should die. The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?” Jesus referred to Daniel’s prophecies and thus corroborated them.

The term Son of Man is a description of the Son of God. But Son of God doesn’t mean “one born by God”; rather, it means God in human flesh. This was why when Jesus Him of blasphemy. They said, “...For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God” (John 10:33). They understood that the Messiah, God manifest in the flesh, is whom Jesus declared Himself to be.

When you say Jesus is the Christ, you mean Jesus is God manifest in the flesh. That was what He was crucified for. Never forget it. In another instance, as Mark 14:61-64 tells us, when the high priest asked Him directly, “Are you the Christ?” and Jesus answered in the affirmative, the high priest tore his robe, accusing Jesus of blasphemy. That declaration led to Jesus’ condemnation to death. But Jesus was right. He was truly the Christ.

The Messiah or Christ is God in the flesh. And when you received Christ, His divine life supplanted your human life and became manifest in you. You became a Christ-in-you person. Colossians 1:27 says, “…Christ in you, the hope of glory.” This is the glory and essence of Christianity—Christ in you! Become aware and more conscious of this reality today, more than ever before.

                            PRAYER 

Dear Father, thank you for the revelation of who Christ is—God manifested in the flesh. I declare that Christ lives in me, and His divine life is made manifest in every part of my being. I walk in the consciousness of this reality, fulfilling your purpose and displaying your glory to the world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
