Read Today’s Rhapsody of Realities May 29 2023 Written by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
Today’s Topic is: Jesus is Lord and God
Highlights
- The key takeaway from this devotional is the affirmation of Jesus as God made visible in human flesh. This understanding is crucial to the Christian faith, as it underscores the divine nature of Jesus and His unique role in the salvation of humanity. The devotional emphasizes that Jesus is not just the Son of God but God Himself, manifested in human form. This divine embodiment is further illustrated by the assertion that the fullness of the Godhead – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit – is tabernacled in Jesus. This revelation of Jesus’s divine nature and His role as the complete embodiment of Deity is a fundamental tenet of Christian belief.
Today’s Message For Rhapsody of Realities
…He [God] was made visible in human flesh, justified and vindicated in the [Holy] Spirit, was seen by angels preached among the nations, believed on in the world, [and] taken up in glory. (1 Timothy 3:16 AMPC).
Our opening verse leaves no doubt about who Jesus is; He is God, made visible in human flesh, justified and vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels preached among the nations, believed on in the world, and taken up in glory! Hallelujah!
It brings to mind the story of the hastily prearranged prosecution of Jesus in Mark 14:60- 63. The high priests conspired with the Jewish Council to find some evidence against Jesus by which they could sentence Him to death, but they couldn’t find any. Then they asked Jesus, “…Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
The Master’s response was unambiguous and unequivocal. He said, “…I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.” For this, they condemned Him to death and took Him away because He dared to declare Himself to be God in human flesh. But that’s who He is. To say Jesus is the Son of God” means He’s God in human flesh.
Read Yesterday’s Devotional
God came to us in a human body. That was what He was crucified for. No wonder Paul said the fullness of the Godhead, that is, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit- the totality of Deity- is tabernacled in Jesus (Colossians1:19).
When you stand before the throne of God, you aren’t going to be seeing some blinding light as the Father, and then the Lord Jesus standing beside Him on the throne; neither will you see the Holy Spirit like a bird on top of the throne, no! Jesus is on the throne and the Father is in Hlim. He is the complete embodiment of Deity. Hallelujah
PRAYER
Blessed Lord Jesus, you’re God who appeared in human form, believed on in the world, and taken up to heaven. How excellent is your Name in all the earth, O, Lord! You’re the complete embodiment of Deity. I worship you for who you are, and thank you for revealing yourself to your Church. Your glory is everlasting. Amen.

John 10:30-33
30 I and my Father are one.
31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Philippians 2:5-6
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

19 For it has pleased [the Father] that all the divine fullness (the sum total of the divine perfection, powers, and attributes) should dwell in Him [a]permanently.
