“Whereby are given unto
us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers
of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world
through lust” 2Peter 1:4.
LIGHT FOR THE NOW: A believer in Christ is no ordinary person. He is a partaker of the divine nature.
As a Christian, you are born of God. This means that your
origin is in God. You came from God. You are born of Him and the Bible records
that whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world (1 John 5:4). The believer
in Christ is no ordinary person. He is a partaker of the divine nature of God.
This means that you are in the God-class of being; you belong to the heavenly;
you are an associate of the God-kind. As Jesus is, so are we in this world (1
John 4:17). As Jesus is divine, so are we also divine. The Bible records in
John 5:26, “For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to
have life in himself…”. And again, in 1 John 5:11-12, the Bible states,
“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 hath not
life”. This means that we have the same life with Christ. It is the
divine life. It is called the Higher Life. It is what makes a believer
absolutely indestructible. It is based on this premise that we say that a
believer has no right to be sick, poor, possessed by demons etc.
As a believer in Christ Jesus, divine health, success,
prosperity are your inheritance and not a hope or promise from God. This is
because you are born of God’s incorruptible seed which is the Word (1 Peter
1:23). Therefore, the life in you cannot be corrupted by sickness nor lack. You
must refuse to accept that it is okay or normal for you as a believer in Christ
to be sick or suffer lack. You are among those that cannot be infected by the
sicknesses in the world. Jesus said in Mark 16:18,”…and if they drink any deadly
thing, it shall not hurt them…” If Jesus said it, then it is so.
Meditate on this truth until it gains ascendancy into your spirit and becomes
your experience.
INSTRUCTION:Refuse to accommodate anything that
is inconsistent with your divine nature.
PRAYER:Lord, I thank you for the divine
life I have in you. As you are, so am I in this world, Amen.
QUOTE:When you don’t who you are in
Christ, you become a plaything for the devil.
