TOPIC: ✨ RUN TOWARDS THE MARK✨
..this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:13-14).

When you study the life of the Apostle Paul, you’d notice an unmistakable singularity and definitiveness in the pursuit of His divine purpose. His focus was undivided. He wasn’t trying to pursue many conflicting directions at once. His eyes were fixed on the mark, on the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

This was also the mindset of the Lord Jesus. Hebrews 12:2 tells us that for the joy set before Him, He endured the Cross and despised the shame. He had His eyes on the prize. In the midst of agony, rejection, humiliation, and suffering, He remained focused on the glorious outcome. He saw beyond the pain and fixed His gaze on the fulfilment of God’s eternal purpose. And because He stayed focused, He won.

That’s the mentality you must have in your walk with the Lord. Don’t allow the distractions of life, worldly ambitions, pressures, disappointments, or temporary pursuits to shift your focus away from Christ and His calling upon your life. Keep your eyes straight ahead.

Many are busy and active, yet they’re running in the wrong direction. They're like an athlete running swiftly in a sprint race but away from the finish line. Speed alone doesn’t guarantee victory. It’s not enough to run; you must run toward the mark. You must know the purpose, the vision, and the calling that God has set before you.

No matter your profession, business, or responsibilities in life, Christ must remain your focus. He must be the centre of your aspirations, decisions, pursuits, and ambitions. When your heart is fixed on Him, every other aspect of your life finds proper alignment and meaning.

Therefore, stay focused on the Lord and on the eternal purpose He has given you. Press toward the mark with determination, courage, and unwavering faith. There’s a prize to win, and as you keep your eyes on Him and remain steadfast in His Word, you’ll fulfil your calling gloriously and triumphantly. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for setting before me a glorious calling and heavenly purpose. My eyes are fixed on you, and my heart is steadfast on your perfect will for my life. I press toward the mark with courage, faith, and determination, fulfilling my calling victoriously, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

[26] I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: [27] But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

📜MAKE HIM YOUR FOCUS

Friday, September 4th
Pastor Chris

📖Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.... (Hebrews 12:2).

One of the most important disciplines in the Christian life is maintaining your focus on the Lord Jesus Christ. The world is filled with distractions, pressures, opinions, and circumstances designed to shift your attention away from Him and from His Word. But the Spirit, through the Scriptures, admonishes us to remain steadfast and undistracted.

The Passion Translation of 2 Timothy 2:8 says, “…make Jesus, the Anointed One, your focus in life and ministry….” Did you notice that? The Lord isn’t to be part of your focus but your entire focus. Your thoughts, pursuits, decisions, energies, and aspirations must all be centred on Him and His divine purpose for your life.

Hebrews 12:2 (TPT) shows us the example of the Lord’s own focus: “...His example is this: Because his heart was focused on the joy of knowing that you would be his, he endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation, and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God.” Blessed thought! In the midst of pain, humiliation, rejection and shame, He looked beyond the suffering and fixed His gaze on the glorious outcome. He saw the harvest—you!

He saw the glory that would come through His obedience and He stayed focused until He fulfilled His mission completely. This is the mindset you must have. Refuse to be swayed by challenges, emotions, pressures, or temporary setbacks in expressing your love for the Lord. Keep your attention on Him and on the things He’s called you to do.

Focus gives strength, direction, and endurance. When your eyes are fixed on the Lord and your heart anchored on His Word, you’ll walk in victory consistently. That’s the instruction God gave to Joshua: “Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night.... Then you will be prosperous and successful” (Joshua 1:8 NIV).

Notice the connection between focus and success. Success in God’s Kingdom is not accidental. It comes from staying on the Word, remaining focused on the Lord, and living in His Word and His purpose for your life. Hallelujah!

🙏PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for your Word that keeps me steadfast, focused and established in your perfect will. My gaze is fixed on you, and my heart is anchored in your truth. I refuse distractions and remain unwavering in the path you’ve ordained for me. I walk in continual victory, prosperity and success, as I live according to your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY📖=> || ‭‭Hebrews 12:2 AMPC Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection]. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God. ||

*FULFIL YOUR PURPOSE TO HIS GLORY*

*For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10).*

The life Christ has given us to live is to the glory of the Father. God always had a very clear agenda, a definite purpose for the world and universe He created and, in particular, a definite purpose for your life. When you study the Scriptures, you discover a remarkable consistency in God’s plan and an unmistakable clarity of purpose concerning His creation and your place in it.

You’re not in this world to balance the ecosystem. There’s a reason you were born at such a time as this, in the place where you are, with the gifts, abilities and opportunities entrusted to you. But it’s unfortunate that many go through life without ever discovering that purpose.

Don’t just exist, driven by trends, pressures, circumstances, and changing conditions. That’s not God’s plan for you. He never intended for your life to be directed by circumstances, whether favourable or unfavourable. A life governed merely by external events eventually produces emptiness and inward frustration, regardless of outward success. The world may admire the seeming accomplishments of such individuals, yet deep within, there remains the painful awareness that they never truly fulfilled their purpose for being.

The most important thing for anyone to do in this world is to discover and fulfil God’s purpose for their lives. And this can only come through a genuine relationship with Him. Purpose is not discovered through speculation, human philosophy, or personal ambition. It’s revealed through fellowship with the Lord and the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

When you truly come to know the Lord and walk in fellowship with Him, there comes a certainty in your spirit of the divine direction and the heavenly vision for your life. More than that, the Holy Spirit helps you fulfill that purpose. He doesn’t merely reveal God’s plan to you; He empowers you to walk in it and make it happen. Therefore, live purposefully and walk with the consciousness that your life has meaning, direction, and divine significance. Through the Holy Spirit, fulfil your purpose to the glory of God.

*PRAYER*

*Dear Father, thank you for giving my life meaning, direction, and divine purpose. I refuse to live aimlessly or be driven by circumstances. Through fellowship with your Spirit and the light of your Word, I walk in the path you ordained for me before the foundation of the world, fulfilling your purpose joyfully and effectively, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

TOPIC: ✨ THE NAME THAT RULES HEAVEN AND EARTH ✨

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth (Matthew 28:18).

When the Lord Jesus declared, “...All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth,” He made a proclamation no earthly ruler could ever truthfully make. Throughout history, mighty empires arose with extraordinary influence and vast dominions.

The Pharaohs ruled with terrifying authority in Egypt. Nebuchadnezzar expanded Babylon’s greatness across nations. The Persians, the Greeks, and later the Romans each dominated the world in their time. Yet, every one of those empires eventually crumbled.

However, while Rome still stood in all its pride and “glory,” the Lord Jesus came on the scene with a higher dominion. This wasn’t merely political authority or earthly influence but absolute authority over all realms, visible and invisible, celestial and terrestrial. No emperor ever possessed that. No king ever ruled both heaven and earth. Only the Lord Jesus declared such authority.

This was why the disciples were so fiercely persecuted. They proclaimed another Kingdom while Caesar was still emperor. They preached a Name greater than Rome’s authority, and the rulers of that age couldn’t tolerate it. Yet, while they all faded away, the dominion of Christ continued increasingly unabated.

Hebrews 13:8 says, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” His authority hasn’t diminished with time. His Name hasn’t weakened through the ages. The same Name that healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out devils, and shook nations in Bible days carries the same power today.

More wonderfully, He’s given us the power of attorney, the legal right and divine authority to act in His stead. When you speak in the Name of Jesus, you’re not uttering mere words; you’re exercising authority from the One who rules heaven and earth.Therefore, never be intimidated by earthly systems, oppositions, or circumstances.

Empires may rise and fall, governments may change, and human powers may fade, but the Name of the Lord Jesus remains eternally supreme. Use that Name with boldness. Use it to enforce His will in your world, for He rules over all, now and forever. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the authority vested in the Name of Jesus. I walk in boldness, victory and dominion today, conscious that I’ve been sent in His Name to establish your righteousness and your will in the earth. Even now, I declare in the Name of Jesus that circumstances are aligned with your perfect purpose for my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

TOPIC: ✨ TAKE YOUR PLACE AND EXERCISE DOMINION ✨

For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).

Some have queried that if Jesus was truly Lord over all and over everything happening in the world, then why are things in disarray? Yes, He’s Lord; He’s seated far above all principality and power. But you must understand your place in His reign and in His lordship: He reigns through you. You’re His instrument of dominion.

Therefore, one of the reasons things are in disarray today isn’t because Christ lacks authority but because those who are to act in His stead haven’t understood or exercised that authority. That’s why the Word is coming to you even now. That’s why you’re being taught. You’re the one called to reign in His stead.

You’re the one to dominate this world and tame circumstances to conform to the perfect will of God. You’ve received abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness; that qualifies you for a life of dominion. You must consciously use the authority given to you in the Name of Jesus. When situations arise, don’t plead, don’t beg, don’t cower; take charge. Enforce the will of God.

The Lord Jesus is running the universe, yes; from galaxies to governments, nothing is exempt from His rule. But He administers His dominion through His Church. That means wherever you are, His authority is to be expressed through you. If things are out of order, you don’t watch them deteriorate; you take action. You speak and enforce God’s righteousness.

Everything in life has intelligence, and has been commanded to hear and obey Jesus (Matthew 17:5), and by extension, you because you’re one with Him. When you speak, everything in life, living or non-living, complies because you function in the Name of Jesus, in His dominion and authority. Hallelujah!

He empowered you to rule your world and rule the world in His Name. He said in John 20:21, “…as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” Then in Matthew 28:18, He said, “…All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” Then He charged us, on account of His dominion and authority, to disciple the nations and make the world a better place (Matthew 28:19-20). Therefore, act accordingly; take your place and exercise your dominion in Christ.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness that I’ve received in Christ. I walk in the consciousness of my authority and exercise dominion in every sphere of life. I enforce your will in my environment, bringing order, righteousness, and peace, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

✨TOPIC: THE DOMINION AND SUPREMACY OF CHRIST ✨

Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come (Ephesians 1:20-21).

Our Lord Jesus Christ is not one among many authorities, governments or powers in this world; He’s far above them. He’s high above all other government, authority, power, dominion, and every title of sovereignty used in this age and in the age to come. That means there’s no system, no structure, no name, and no office anywhere that is outside the dominion and supremacy of Christ.

Remember, the Bible says He has a government (Isaiah 9:6) and His government is one with unlimited influence, power, dominion and authority: “Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end...” (Isaiah 9:7). His authority supersedes every earthly system. He is the Head and we are His body. And the Bible says His government is upon His shoulders, which means His body.

That’s why when any system stands against the Gospel of Jesus Christ or seeks to hinder the Church, we keep them in check. We frustrate their efforts and overthrow their plans. We have the authority to do that because we function in His Name. As He’s far above every ruler, authority, power and principality of darkness, so are we, because He raised us up together and made us sit together with Him in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6).

His dominion and supremacy aren’t temporary but forever. Both now and in the world to come, His authority stands. The Bible shows the extent of His rule; everything is under Him. Ephesians 1:20-22 (MSG) says, “All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything....” Blessed be God!

Live with this consciousness. You’re functioning under the authority of the One who is above all—the Lord Jesus. Therefore, walk in dominion and supremacy of His glory and mighty power.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the dominion and supremacy of Jesus Christ over all governments, powers, dominions and principalities of darkness. I walk in the consciousness of His lordship and exercise dominion in every situation. I stand firm for the Gospel, bold and full of faith, knowing that I operate under the highest authority, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

✨TOPIC: CHRIST—THE GOD-MAN DELIVERER✨

And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God (Matthew 16:16).

We have to understand something about the name, Christ. It’s the English form of the Greek “Christos,” and that is the Greek form of the Hebrew “Messiah.” What does “Messiah” mean? It means the God-man deliverer. That’s why Jesus is called the Anointed One, the God-man Messiah.

From the prophecies of Moses and the other prophets, they understood that a Messiah would come, the God-man would come, and that this God-man would deliver them. And what kind of deliverance were they expecting? The ultimate deliverance! It was the deliverance from all evil and from all that’s human. Why did the Jews think that way?

It’s because they knew that what was human had become corrupted. They knew the story of how man fell in the Garden of Eden through Adam’s transgression. Thus, they believed that only the God-man deliverer, the ultimate deliverer, could set humanity free from Satan’s bo***ge and the corruption that worked in nature.

Man’s heart became deceitful above all things and desperately wicked (Jeremiah 17:9). So, man realised he needed deliverance from himself, from that fallen nature. That’s why they looked forward to the coming of the God-man, the Messiah. That’s why He was called the Anointed One. Not because they didn’t know about the anointing.

They knew Moses was anointed, likewise the priests. They knew the Kings, for example, David, and even Saul, and then the Prophets, were all anointed. They were familiar with the anointing. So they weren’t just talking about an anointed one but the God-man. That was their expectation.

But sadly, when He came, they didn’t recognise Him. The Bible says, "He came unto his own, and his own received him not” (John 1:11). Jesus is that God-man. He is the Christ. Not just an anointed man, but the One who brought the ultimate deliverance. In Him, you’ve been delivered from all that’s evil and from the fallen human nature. You’ve been brought into a new life.

You’re not trying to be delivered; you’ve been delivered: “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son” (Colossians 1:13). You’re not of the old human order; you’re a new creation by reason of Christ—the God-man deliverer. Blessed be God!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the revelation of Jesus Christ, the God-man and my ultimate deliverer. I live in the consciousness of this truth that I’ve been brought into a new life in Christ, a life of glory and righteousness. I walk in this reality today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES, DAILY DEVOTIONAL, SATURDAY 22ND AUGUST 2026. PASTOR CHRIS

✨TOPIC: DON’T BE SELECTIVE WITH TRUTH✨

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17)

The truth of God’s Word is not subject to personal preference. You don’t accept one part and reject another. God’s Word is absolute truth; it’s complete, consistent, and dependable. Sadly, there’re those who say they don’t believe certain parts of the Bible, for example, the ascension of Jesus Christ. You’re not a Christian if you don’t believe that Jesus ascended to heaven.

The Scriptures clearly reveal that He was taken up into heaven. Recall the words of the angel to the disciples in Acts 1:11, “…Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” That wasn’t symbolic; it happened; it’s an undeniable reality: The Lord Jesus ascended into heaven.

Before Him, there was Enoch (Hebrews 11:5), and Elijah (read 2 Kings 2:9-11); these two were caught up into heaven. These were real events, showing you that God’s dealings are consistent and His Word is dependable. So, if someone questions one part of the Word, where does it stop?

If, as a Christian, you don’t believe that Jesus ascended to heaven, then it means you also don’t believe that there’s a heaven because one of the reasons we're going to heaven is what Jesus said in His prayer to the Father in John 17:24, “Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am….”

He wants us to see heaven and see that everything He told us was true. He wants us to come and actually participate in what happens in heaven and then come back with Him to rule the nations for one thousand years before the Judgment. Hallelujah! So, the Scriptures reveal that heaven is real.

Your life in Christ is not limited to this present world. There’s a future with Him. Therefore, believe the Word in its entirety; don’t be selective with truth. Don’t build your faith on theories or assumptions of men. Receive the Word fully and build your life on the whole counsel of God’s truth.

CONFESSION
Your Word, O Lord, is complete and perfect, absolutely dependable, and my life is built and established on the whole counsel of your Word. I walk in the light of all that you’ve revealed in your Word. Therefore, my life is excellent and full of glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
Hebrews 11:5 KJV
By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.* *||*

2 Kings 2:11 KJV
And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.

Acts 1:9 KJV
And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
