RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY SATURDAY 31ST OCTOBER 2026.
Some Christians have been taught to “die to sin.” As a result, they’re constantly struggling, praying, and striving to overcome sin, hoping that one day they’ll finally attain victory. But that’s not what the Scriptures teach. The Bible doesn’t tell you to die to sin; it says you’re already dead to sin. Notice the language of the Apostle Paul. He doesn’t say, “Try to die to sin,” or “Keep dying to sin.” He says, “How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” Through your union with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection, you died to sin.
That’s your present reality in Christ. It’s for the same reason that the Scripture says, “For sin shall not have dominion over you…” (Romans 6:14). The challenge for many is that they’re trying to become what God says they already are. As long as you’re trying to die to sin, you’ll continue to struggle; it’s like trying to kill a dead man. The victory comes when you recognise and affirm what God’s Word says about you. Simply see yourself the way God sees you and live accordingly. Romans 6:11 says, “Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
The word “reckon” means to account it so. God wants you to think, talk, and act from the standpoint of who you are in Christ. The new creation was born sin-free. You’re not a sinner trying to become righteous; you’re the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, living out the reality of your new nature. This is the key to victorious Christian living. Don’t focus on sin. Focus on who God says you are. The more you recognise your identity in Christ, the more naturally you’ll walk in righteousness and manifest the life of God that’s in your spirit
CONFESSION
I’m dead indeed unto sin and alive unto God. I live in the consciousness of my righteousness, and express the life and nature of Christ from within. Sin has no dominion over me because I walk in the reality of who I am in Christ: holy, righteous, sanctified, justified, and glorified.
