Rhapsody Of Realities 16th September 2026 – Born of The Word and The Spirit

Christianity is not a religion. It’s not a system for moral improvement or an attempt to become better through human effort. Rather, it’s the outworking of a divine birth, an actual transformation that takes place in the human spirit when one receives Christ. You need to fully understand what happened when you were born again. You didn’t merely join a church or adopt a new way of life; you were born of God’s Spirit.

This wasn’t symbolic or figurative; He imparted divine life to you and made you a new creature with a new origin, a new nature, and a new identity. Your physical birth made you human, but the New Birth in Christ made you a partaker of the divine nature. We read  in our opening scripture that we were born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God which lives and abides forever.

Also, James 1:18 says, “Of  his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.” That means being born of the Word, you have the life of the Word. It’s for the same reason that we’re called the epistles of Christ (2 Corinthians 3:3). Then, the Lord  Jesus said in John 3:6, “That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” The Apostle Paul, by the Spirit, explains this further in Romans 8:10-11: Though your physical body was subject to death because of sin, the Spirit now gives it life because of righteousness.

The Holy Spirit in you is life to your spirit and vitality  to your body. This is why Christianity is the manifestation of the divine life in a human person. You’re as divine as the Lord Jesus is. This is the consciousness God wants you to have. You’re born of the Word and the Spirit. The life in you is superior to sickness, fear, failure, weakness and corruption because it’s the very life of God. Think, talk, and live accordingly. Glory to God!

PRAYER/CONFESSION
I’m born of the Word and by the Spirit of the Lord. Therefore, my origin is divine. I’m as divine as Jesus is, and I walk in the consciousness of my divine origin and identity in Christ. The life of God is at work in me, and I manifest His righteousness, excellence, victory, and glory today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
