RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY SATURDAY 16TH NOVEMBER 2024.
What we just read are some of the most extraordinary words from the lips of the Master. He said those who believe in Him, not only will they do the same works that He did, but they’ll do greater works. This is only possible because Jesus has ascended to the Father, and through the Holy Spirit, His work continues through us.
Recall what the Scripture says in Isaiah 53:10, “Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand”. This verse speaks prophetically of the Church, the body of Christ, as the seed of Jesus Christ. It tells us that after His vicarious sacrifice, the Lord Jesus will see His seed- the Chur ch and we shall prolong His days. Hallelujah!
That’s what’s going on; Jesus multiplies Himself through the Church today; He continues His mission through us. In Acts 1:1, Luke writes to Theophilus about 11 “all that Jesus began both to do and teach”. The key word here is “began”; Jesus started the work, but we continue it. We are the extension of His ministry, teaching, impacting, and transforming lives as He did.
The same Spirit that anointed Jesus for His work resides in us, enabling us to continue and expand upon what He started. Through the Holy Spirit, we’re empowered to reach more people and impact more lives for the Kingdom of God. Acts 1:8 says, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”
The Church is the extension of Christ on earth, living in His power and authority, fulfilling His mission. This is a calling of great honor and responsibility. We’re His hands, His feet, and His voice in this world, carrying out the will of the Father just as Jesus did
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of being a part of the body of Christ. I’m forever grateful that through the Holy Spirit, I’m empowered to do your will and establish your righteousness. I walk in this calling with boldness and faith, knowing that my life glorifies you. Thank you for making me an extension of your Kingdom in the earth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
