Rhapsody Of Realities Daily Devotional Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD Theme: “Make Things Happen!” Date: Tuesday January 20th, 2015 Scriptural Ref: philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me (Philippians 4:13). The Lord once said to me, “I don’t want something good to happen to you, and I don’t want something bad to happen either.” He said, “If you’re still living at that realm where you still think something good is going to happen to you, then you’re not living a mature Christian life.” So I asked, “What then is going to happen, since I should expect neither good things nor bad things to happen to me?” Then He said, “Make things happen”; “You happen!” Think about it: Could anything good or bad ever happen to God? Did you ever read in the Scriptures that God was happy because something good “happened” to Him? Or that He was sad because something bad happened to Him? He doesn’t function in such a realm. He makes things happen. In the same way, you’re a child of God, made in His image, born after His kind; you belong in His class. So, you shouldnt have anything “happening” to you; instead, you should be the one happening. Satan, the adversary, may come around and try to make things “happen” to you but the Bible says you should resist the devil and he’ll flee (James 4:7). He can try all he wants to, but he’s no match for you; you’re superior to him; therefore, he cant make anything “happen” to you. It doesn’t matter how many demons are roaming around, trying to stir your nest; theyre not a factor; you have authority over them all in the Name of Jesus. Being born again, you have the ability of Christ in you to determine what you want in your life. Therefore, never allow yourself to be a victim of circumstances. Keep reigning in life. Apply faith in God’s Word to deal with situations and challenges. Subdue, tame, and rule your world for Jesus Christ. Keep making things happen in the Kingdom of God. CONFESSION: The ability of God is at work in me; I’m sufficient in His sufficiency. I make great and glorious things happen in my life, in Gods kingdom, and in the lives of others, to the glory of Jesus Christ. I’m alive to God, fruitful and productive by the power of the Holy Spirit! Halleluiah!
