The Word of God is the Seed of Divine Life

 


   The Bible declares that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin. That’s significant because the life of human being comes from the man, and not from the woman. “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever” 1 Peter 1:23. Howbeit, the body of a human being comes from the woman. It’s therefore something extraordinary for Jesus to be born of a virgin. Where did His life come from? It came from the Word.

  The angel brought words from God to the Virgin Mary Luke 1:35. Mary believed and received the word (the seed of God), and the Holy Spirit came upon her to conceive the child without the agency of the seed of man. The Word that God spoke to her formed the seed in her. The Word of God is the seed of God Luke 8:11; that’s the seed of divine life, just as the life of an orange tree is in the little orange seed.

  When you receive God’s Word (or you receive the new life in Christ Jesus), you receive the life of whatever it talks about; whatever you’re hearing from God is the seed (and it is active) to produce in you, or for you, what it talks about. For example, when we preach and teach divine healing, the hearer receives the seed of healing and it produces healing and health. Likewise, when we teach God’s Word on the subject of finances, it produces seed of financial blessings and miracles. That’s the power God’s Word!

   Christianity is no religion (it is the very life of God in humanity or the new life). Jesus Christ was the word of God made flesh John 1:14. We also were born again by the same seed (Word). That’s what we read in our opening verse. You have the same life (the divine life) as God Himself, because you’re born of God 1John 1:13. This is what makes your origin divine. 1 John 4:4 says “Ye are of God, little children…” meaning that you hail from God (you are not of this world if you have the new life or if you are born of God); you’re a partaker of divine nature 2 Peter 1:4. Glory to God!

How to follow Jesus

                  Following Jesus is not going to church always, it is not praying always, it is not reading the bible always etc. although, all these activities are good but they do not make one a follower of Christ Jesus. Matthew 19:16-21, the rich young ruler was perfect in all of them yet something was missing which was the most important one. In the book of John 3:1 Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jew, was disqualified in spite of his knowledge of the law.              What is following Jesus? So, what is following Jesus? Following Jesus Christ is living by the word of God. Luke 4:4 and Jesus answered him saying man shall not live by bread alone, by every word of God. This is living your life according to the direction of the Word of God. It is abiding in the word of God or Jesus. John 15:4-5.     Steps to follow  ·          You must believe in Jesus Christ, John 3:16   ·          You must be born again John 3:3 ·          You must have faith in God. Heb 11:1-6 ·

Salvation is for the Living

     Some people have asked if Christians could intercede on behalf of a person who died without receiving Christ, so such a person could go to heaven instead of hell. The answer is No. “For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth” Isaiah 38:18-19. Anyone who didn’t receive Christ while on earth stands condemned. In John 3:18, Jesus said, “… but he that believeth not is condemned already….”   So, the one who dies without knowing Christ, died in condemnation, and it would be of no use praying for such a one to go to heaven because the choice of whether to make heaven or not is personal one.   It’s important to realize that the salvation message is for the living and not the dead. You can only receive Christ as Lord and Saviour in response to the Gospel while you’re still in the earth. Jesus

Keys to Effectual Prayers

  And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him. Lord, teach us to pray… (Lake 11:1)   When you study the lives of the early prophets and the apostles, even the Lord Jesus Christ, you’d find they were very effective in their prayer lives. In our opening verse, disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray because they observed His prayers' effectiveness. So, it’s not just enough to pray; it’s the effectual, fervent prayer of the righteous man that produces results.   There’re scriptural rules and guidelines for effectual prayers. There are some things you have to pray about continually, you intercede continually; and there’re things that you pray for only once because if you keep praying about them, you’re getting into unbelief, rather than applying faith.    Meanwhile, there’re things you’re not even supposed to pray for, because no matter how long you pray about them, God is not going to respond becaus
