Your Divine Nature · Thursday, July 12th · Pastor Anita

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).

Pastor AnitaWhen a person receives Christ, he becomes the offspring of God: "…as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God" (John 1:12-13).
The Lord Jesus said in John 10:10 that the reason He came is that men might have divine life; the triumphant and victorious life of God, and have it in overflowing measure. This life is what makes the believer a superman in Christ. It is what makes you extraordinary, with power to do the impossible. Having received this life, you’re to live triumphantly every day and reign victoriously through Christ Jesus. That’s your calling: "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place" (2 Corinthians 2:14).
Being born again, you’re no longer an "ordinary human being"; you’re now a partaker of the divine nature. Divinity is now at work in you. Become conscious of your divine nature. Fear, weakness, sadness and depression won’t have a place in your life when you live true to your calling as one who’s been appointed unto the triumphant life in Christ.
Prayer
Thanks be unto God for His enormous and blessed gift of eternal life, which He has imparted to my spirit! I’m conscious of the divine life of God that’s in me; and I bless the Lord, who causes me to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest the savour of the knowledge of His glorious life through me, in every place, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
