Know That You Have It! – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional May 22nd

(Live As One Who Has Eternal Life)

TO THE BIBLE: 1 John 5:13 NIV
“I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.”

LET’S TALK
In the verse we just read, the Apostle John stresses the importance of Christians “knowing” that they have eternal life. The word “know” comes from the Greek term “eido,” which means to have knowledge or awareness of something.

This isn’t just about having a vague idea; it’s about understanding and being certain that you possess eternal life.

Sadly, not many Christians know they have eternal life. So, some pray for it, some fast for it, and others hope to receive it. Some others even think they can only enjoy this God-life in heaven. No!

Eternal life isn’t a mere promise or a future expectation. When you were born again, eternal life was imparted to your human spirit, and at once, you were awakened to the Fatherhood of God. Eternal life is the God-life; it’s the transcendent life. It’s indomitable and uninfectable.

If someone had a tumour growing in his or her body, upon receiving eternal life, that tumour should die and dematerialise.

Thank God for the teaching of His Word and the increased knowledge in the Body of Christ! Many are becoming more aware of the essence, import, and impact of this divine life in us.

When troubles come your way, face them with the confidence of knowing who you are in Christ. You live in a realm of joy, peace, and victory, where you’re more than a conqueror through Christ.

Keep this awareness alive in your heart every day, knowing that the solution to every problem is found within you. Glory to God!

Speak:
I walk and function in the consciousness that 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.
