The New Life in the Word of God

                         

Christianity is an exciting life; a life of victory through the Word. Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever 1 Peter 1:23. Religious Christianity teaches that you have to struggle to please God, and to walk with Him. But in true Christianity, you don’t need to struggle to please God because the Holy Spirit helps you live the faith life that pleases Him. All you have to do is pay attention to Him through the Word of God. This is because the Word of God is the life. The place we read say “…word of God,… liveth and abideth forever” that means the Word of God is alive and living, it does not change. The Word of God is dependable.  We are not born again by struggling; we are born again by the Word of God so we are to live by the Word.

   Those who live according to the Word of God don’t need to keep worrying whether or not they are pleasing God. It takes faith to please God; “But without faith it is impossible to please him…” Hebrew11:6; and faith is having the Word dwell in you richly and living by it. The Just shall live by faith. Faith is the reality that we know as Christians. God’s Word in you will regulate your thoughts and actions, and guide you in the paths of righteousness.

    No wonder Colossians 3:16 says, “let the word of God Christ dwell in you richly in wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” If you store up the Word in your heart’s treasury, you will of necessity speak the Word, because the Lord Jesus said in Matthew 12:34, “…out of the abundance of the mouth speaketh.” Moreover, if you keep talking the Word in faith, the Word will propel you to action. If you dwell in the Word it will make you what it talks about.

   To live the glorious life God has ordained for you in Christ is neither a mystery nor unattainable; all you have to do is live in and by the Word. Keep the Word in you and let the word dominate you! You must live out the Word daily, such that when you speak, it’ll be the Word talking through you.

You are alive by 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. God gave birth to us by the Word, through the spirit. You’re not ordinary person if you are in Christ or if you have the new life in Christ Jesus. The human life you received from your parents has been replaced, supplanted, by the divine life of Christ. 1 Peter 1:23 says, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of corruptible, by the word of god, which liveth and abideth forever.”    Often, I tell people that Christianity is more than a legal document; it’s a vital experience; there’s a true life from Christ beating in your heart which is the new life in Christ Jesus. The natural man (anyone without the New Life in Christ Jesus or anyone who is not born again) lives by blood, but a Christian lives by the Spirit. No wonder Jesus, referring to the ne...

The Reign of Death is over

  Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come (Romans 5:14)  Satan became the god of this earth because he got it from Adam who lost out through disobedience, resulting significantly in the reign of death. Remember, God had told Adam, “… in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die” (Genesis 2:17). He was talking about spiritual death; spiritual death is the cause of physical death. So, our theme verse says, “Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses (the Law of Moses)…”  But who had the power of death? The Bible says, “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is the devil” (Hebrews 2:14). Satan was actually behind this reign of death. Now, here’s something exciting that I want ...

The Divinity of Jesus

   “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father; but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, have seen him” John 14:6-7.   “Is Jesus really God?”   This is one question many still ask today. They believe He was a great prophet and teacher, but find it difficult to accept that He is Himself God, but He is. The Bible says “In the beginning was the Word, and the word was with God, and the Word was God ” John 1:1. That “Word” that the Bible says “was God” became flesh-Jesus- and dwelt among us: “And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:14.     Now, the prophecy that came forth before the birth of Jesus also foretold His divinity: “Behold, a virgin shall be with a child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanue...
