And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life (1 John 5:11-12).
Your consciousness of your
personality, origin, and heritage in Christ will affect the way you live,
control the decisions you make, and the things that happen with, and around
you. This is why you should be conscious of the life of God that’s in you. The
Lord Jesus said in John 5:26, "For as the Father hath life in himself; so
hath he given to the Son to have life in himself." We read in our opening scripture
that God has given us eternal life. What is this eternal life?
Eternal life is the life and
nature of God imparted to the spirit of the one who believes in Jesus. It’s the
supernatural life of God in your spirit, making you invincible, indestructible,
and superior to Satan, sickness, disease, failure and death. The Apostle John
in 1 John 5:13 writes, "These things have I written unto you that believe
on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal
life...." God wants you to be conscious of His life in you. That
consciousness gives you the winner’s mentality.
You don’t have to
"feel" it in your body first to be conscious that you have eternal
life; it’s in your spirit. Every so often, declare that the life of God is
in you: from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet! Perhaps you
got injured and it’s hurting terribly, remind yourself that you have the life
of God in you. You’re born of the Spirit and the Word of God; your life is
supernatural. That means there has to be a restoration.
Some people have had minor
injuries that wouldn’t heal for many years. Such injuries eventually
degenerated into debilitating ailments that cost them their lives, only because
they knew nothing about this life of God. It’s the miracle-life! It’s
incorruptible. If you feel the symptoms of sickness in your body, activate the
power of the God-life in you by praying in tongues, and speaking the Word.
Within a short while, you’d notice strength and vitality return to your body.
Confession
I have the life of God in
me; it flows in every fibre of my being. No sickness, disease or infirmity can
thrive in my body, because the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead
lives in me, and has vitalized my body through and through! I’m whole, sound, and
excellent, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
