THE REIGN OF LIFE

“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my father’s hand” John 10:28-29

LIGHT FOR THE NOW: The greatest gift you can receive is the gift of eternal life.

Anyone who receives eternal life cannot perish. Jesus testifies of this in our anchor scripture for today that no man shall pluck them out of his hand nor from his father’s hand. Eternal life is what preserves us from death and then, protects us against the forces of devil. Eternal life is Christ gave us after his death on the cross. The greatest gift a believer can receive is the gift of eternal life (Colossians 3:3). Eternal life is the realm where nothing can go wrong. Eternal life is the will of God for all believers (John 6:40). Eternal life is what qualifies you to be a child of God. The moment you come into Christ, you receive eternal life. What gives birth to a believer is the Word of truth and the devil cannot stand against it (James 1:18). When you receive eternal life, you become an overcomer (1John 5:1-4). You have been wired by divinity to overcome the world naturally. Life is in you only if you are in Christ.

It is the eternal life in you that guarantees your overcoming. God is not God outside eternal life. Eternal life reveals beyond the natural. Your faith in the finished work of Christ is what makes eternal life available to you. Eternal life is what helps you to overcome hell. You cannot enter heaven outside of eternal life. Jesus went to hell to pay the consequences of sin. Acts 2:24 (NLT) says, “But God released him from the horrors of death and raised him back to life, for death could not keep him in its grip.” Life is eternal for those who are in Christ Jesus. When you crave for life, you have to first receive the owner of life. You can’t find life outside Jesus. Outside Jesus is death, in Him is life; and you cannot discard what you need. Eternal life is not an award but a love gift from God because you didn’t deserve it (Romans 5:8). When you reject love, you operate in hatred and hatred is destructive and it is from the devil. God’s gift to you is an eternal life. When you come into Christ, you are eternally secured; this is why it is called eternal life. God is the owner and operator of the eternal life. It is called eternal security and it can only be guaranteed via your belief in Christ. Man has no hand in the operation of eternal life, hence no man can pluck you out of the hand of God (John 10:28).
