*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL*

*HIS GOODNESS IN THE EARTH*

Sunday, January 15th

Pastor Chris

_*He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD (Psalm 33:5).*_

Some don’t believe that the earth is truly full of the goodness of God. But that’s exactly what the verse above unequivocally declares. All that some have experienced in their lives is bitterness and pain. Part of the reason for this is the works of wicked and evil men and women. These evil manipulators destroy the economies of nations for their selfish gain.

Nevertheless, there's more than enough food and good things for every human being on the face of the earth. There's more than enough wealth in this world. There's more than enough grace in this world. There's more than enough power and ability in this world. It’s one of the reasons God wants us to intercede for all men so they can enjoy all that He’s blessed them with in the earth.

We read it: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord (Psalm 33:5). Therefore, affirm that the lines are fallen untoyou in pleasant places; you have a goodly heritage (Psalm 16:6). Believe it and act accordingly. God said, _*"My people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge...”*_ (Hosea 4:6). But knowledge has come to you today: all the blessings of God upon the earth are yours to enjoy.

Don’t settle for less. He said in Psalm 50:10-11, _*“For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.”*_ Then in Psalm 24:1, David said, _*“The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”*_ No wonder Paul said, _*“...All things are yours”*_ (1 Corinthians 3:21); because you’re an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ. Hallelujah!

*PRAYER*

*Gracious Father, the whole earth is filled with your glory and goodness, but many are in bitterness and pain. Therefore, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, I come against the works of ungodly men who have filled the earth with violence, poverty and deaths, keeping men from experiencing your goodness in the earth. Their works are frustrated, and God’s people experience your blessings, health, prosperity and power, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY:* *||* *2 Peter 1:3* 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: *||*

*||* *Isaiah 1:19* If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: *||*

*||* *Psalm 27:13 AMPC* [What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living! *||*

*||* *Psalm 27:13 NIV* I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. *||*

*MANIFESTING FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS*

Wednesday, January 11th .
Pastor Chris

_*Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God (Philippians 1:11).*_

Jesus said, _*“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them”*_ (Matthew 7:20). You can’t have fruits of something you’re not. An orange tree can only produce orange fruits. So, our theme verse is letting you know that if you’re righteous, you’ll have fruits of righteousness. In John 15:5, Jesus said, _*“I am the vine, ye are the branches….”*_ And as common knowledge, the beauty of a tree is in its branches.

Being the “branch” of Jesus Christ means you carry the beauty of the Son of God. Hallelujah! You’re the fruit-bearing part of the vine, and you bear fruits of righteousness. That’s what your life is about: the manifestation of His righteousness.

You’ve been established as a tree of righteousness, to produce fruits and works of righteousness. Meaning that the things that come out of your life—your words and your actions—bring praise and glory to God. Isaiah 61:3 calls us trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord of hosts that He might be glorified. God’s glory and excellence are expressed through you.

The people of the world should see you and recognize the excellence and elegance of the Spirit. When Jesus restored sight to the blind, unstopped deaf ears, healed the crippled, raised the dead, fed the hungry, comforted the afflicted, and spoke divine words to encourage and bless people, He was manifesting fruits of righteousness. And as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17). Glory to His Name forever!

*CONFESSION*

*I am the righteous; I flourish like the palm tree and grow like the cedar in Lebanon. I’m planted in the house of the Lord, and I flourish in the courts of our God. I produce fruits and works of righteousness; my life is the testimony of God’s glory and grace. His beauty is expressed through me; this is my heritage in Christ. Hallelujah!*

*FURTHER STUDY:*
*2 Corinthians 5:21* For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

*Philippians 1:9-11 NIV* And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, 10 so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, 11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.

**Proverbs 11:30 ESV*
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise.

*FOUNDED ON THE ROCK*

Saturday, January 7th.
Pastor Chris

*_The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold_ (Psalm 18:2 NIV)*

The Bible tells us about the spiritual rock that accompanied the children of Israel on their journey through the wilderness; that rock was Christ *(1 Corinthians 10:4).* He is the rock of our salvation. Anything that’s founded on Him is eternally fortified and unshakable.

It brings to mind the words of Jesus in Matthew 7:24-27. He said, *“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.”*

Notice the Lord didn’t say if you built your house on the rock, the winds would come and turn away, or that the floods would come and flow away. No! He said they’d beat upon the house. But because it’s on the rock, it'll remain standing. That's how your life is when you live in the Word of God. It doesn’t matter the fiery darts and tempest from Satan; you’re unflustered and unscathed.

Build your ministry on the Word. Build your life, your finances, your business, your relationships—all your endeavours—on the Word, and they’ll never crumble. Recall what the Bible says through the Prophet Isaiah, which parallels what we read from the Master in *Matthew 7:24-27. He said, “When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee”* (Isaiah 43:2).

This is your heritage as one in Christ. You’re unconquerable. All things work together to produce blessings for you! You’re divinely protected because Christ is your rock and your fortress. Hallelujah!

*PRAYER*

*_Dear Father, thank you for your Word, which is my sure and firm foundation. My life is built on Christ, the Rock on which I stand secured, strengthened, rooted and grounded, set for an upward course—the transcendent, victorious and prosperous life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen._*

*FURTHER STUDY:*

*Acts 20:32* And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

*1 Corinthians 3:10-11* According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. *11* For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

*Matthew 7:24-27 NIV* “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. *25* The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. *26* But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. *27* The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”

*Wednesday 28th July 2021*

Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I refuse to fear! I walk by faith and not by sight. I refuse to be moved by any symptoms of illness. I have the imperishable life of God in me, causing me to walk continually in divine health and strength. The Word of God quickens my physical body; my health flourishes daily because the power of Jesus Christ works in me. I declare that every fiber of my being hears the Word of the Lord and responds to it. My mind, heart, skin and bones, and all organs in my body, respond to God's Word. The plans of the adversary regarding my health will always come to nothing because I am born of God. I have the life of God in me. I have strength in me. I am confident that I dwell in perfect health today and always in the mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.

*THE HOLY SPIRIT—YOUR ADVANTAGE*

Wednesday, 28th July.
Pastor Chris

_*But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you…*_ *(Acts 1:8 AMPC)*

In your life, career, ministry, business, job or academics, are there limits you want to break? Are there new records you want to set? Do you want to chart new vistas? What is it you want to achieve? The Holy Spirit in you is your advantage! There’s something about His power and grace that causes you to do the extraordinary and unimaginable!

If you were tasked with any project or assignment, maybe in your school, place of work or an evangelical assignment in your local church, execute it by the power, wisdom and guidance of the Spirit. Become conscious that you’re up to that task because of the greater One who lives in you; working in, and through you.

The Bible says, *“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure”* (Philippians 2:13). Zechariah 4:6 says, *“…Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.”* That same Spirit is in you today, and has brought the glory of God into your life, giving you guidance and direction, with the wisdom and ability to walk through *“walls”* and blaze new trails. He’s filled you with supernatural ability to do things that can’t be humanly explained.

2 Corinthians 3:5 AMPC says, *“Not that we are fit (qualified and sufficient in ability) of ourselves to form personal judgments or to claim or count anything as coming from us, but our power and ability and sufficiency are from God.”* Blessed be God! Every day, tell yourself, *“I can do all things by the Holy Spirit who lives in me!”*

Take advantage of the person, power, grace and ministry of the Holy Spirit in your life! He’s your advantage. He causes you to see, think, say and do things ordinary men can’t.

*PRAYER*

_*Blessed Holy Spirit, how I love you! I acknowledge you as my advantage; the One I need to be an absolute success in life. Thank you for your ability, strength and wisdom that are mightily at work in me. I walk in health, victory, strength, prosperity and glory, as you perfect your will in me, causing me to do of your good pleasure, in Jesus’ Name. Amen*._

*FURTHER STUDY:*

*John 14:16-17 AMPC* And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever— *17* The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive (welcome, take to its heart), because it does not see Him or know and recognize Him. But you know and recognize Him, for He lives with you [constantly] and will be in you.

*Colossians 1:26-29* [Even] the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: 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: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

*What we do with our time reveals who we truly are and the direction our lives is heading. Success is predictable. Use the social media to make your life easier not busier. All of the modernconveniences of the social media can, of course, be very good, but only if we manage them andavoid letting the buzzes, pings, and beeps they make control you. People are eager to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves. That's why the remain the same or things even get worse.*
