Rhapsody of Realities 26th May 2025 Devotional Message By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy)
TOPIC: Change Levels
But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord
(2 Corinthians 3:18).
Have you ever come to a point where you knew you had to change levels? You looked at your life and said, “I’ve been at this stage for too long; it’s time to move up!” This is important because you should always desire growth and advancement! Our life in Christ is upward and forward; it’s from faith to faith, grace to grace, and from glory to glory.

At every stage, I always set clear targets for my life. I determine what I would achieve at different times, and the remarkable thing is, I always hit my targets ahead of schedule. This taught me an important lesson: setting goals works. But beyond setting goals, taking action is what brings results.
Some people wait, hoping that God will step in and change their situation without them doing anything. But that’s not how it works. There’re things God does, and there’re things you must do. Think about a farmer; he cultivates his land, plants seeds, and waters them, but he doesn’t make them grow. He understands that if he follows this process, the soil will cause the seed to germinate and produce a harvest.
Where is God in all these? He’s the One who gives life to the seed. The soil itself carries a divine mystery;
when a seed is planted, it dies first, and then God’s power causes it to spring back to life. Now, imagine a farmer who never plants anything. Harvest time will still come, but while others are reaping, he will have nothing, because he didn’t plant anything.
It’s the same with life—if you don’t plant seeds, you won’t see a harvest. I discovered that planting seeds into my mind and heart produces results. Even greater is the discovery that I can plant seeds into the realm of the spirit and reap a supernatural harvest!
So, do something to change your current state and estate. Many people haven’t changed levels in five years. Their lives have remained the same, except that things have become harder because the world has moved forward while they remained stagnant. When you don’t upgrade your life and mindset, you won’t be able to accommodate the changes in the world around you. Decide to change levels. Take the necessary actions today that’ll create the future you desire.
PRAYER: Dear Father, I refuse to remain at the same level. I take action, planting the right seeds into my heart, my mind, and the realm of the spirit. By the power of your Word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I move forward and upward, changing levels and fulfilling my destiny. Thank you for your divine power at work in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Philippians 3:12-14
12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
Romans 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Proverbs 4:18
The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.
