Rhapsody of Realities Tuesday 25 February 2025 Devotional Message By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy)
Rhapsody of Realities Monday 25 February 2025 TOPIC: An Important Awareness
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, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God (1 John 5:13).
Rhapsody of Realities Tuesday 25 February 2025 MESSAGE
This verse of scripture was written by the Apostle John towards the closing part of his ministry, and he considered it essential to remind God’s children of something very fundamental. He was addressing those who already believe in Jesus Christ, reiterating that they “know” they have eternal life. The word “know” is the Greek “eido,” which means to observe and become aware.

He wants you to observe and become aware that you have the organic and existential attributes of deity. This awareness is important because your consciousness of your identity in Christ influences the way you live and the decisions you make. It shapes your reactions and determines the outcomes in your life. Also notice the latter part that says, “…and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” (1 John 5:13).
There’re two striking things John points attention to: one, observe and become aware that you have the Godlife, the God-nature. Secondly, believe on the Name of the Son of God. Why would John write to folks who are already Christians to believe on the Name of the Son of God? It’s because he wants their faith to remain strong and steadfast, unshaken by the circumstances around them.
God knew they would face challenges, so He encourages them to keep trusting and remain confident in God’s Word, no matter what happens. Remember what He said in 1 John 4:4, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” You’ve already overcome, because the One who lives in you is greater than anything or anyone in the world.
Therefore, keep the Word in your heart. Let your faith remain steadfast. Observe and become aware that you have eternal life; that life is greater than any circumstance or challenge. Trust in it, and live in the consciousness of the victorious life that Christ has given you.
PRAYER/CONFESSION: Dear Father, thank you for the eternal life I have in Christ. I live with the consciousness of this life today, knowing that I am more than a conqueror. I stand firm, unshaken by circumstances, because greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. Amen.
