ONLY ONE THING IS NEEDFUL!- You will not lose out when you take time to sit down and listen to God’s Word.
Proverbs 4:20–21
20 My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. 21 Do not
let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart...

Rhapsody Of Realities Daily Devotional;

Not Subject To the Elements!

Thursday, September 25th .
Pastor Chris

Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances
(Colossians 2:20).

When you were born again, you were delivered from the power of darkness, and
translated into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son (Colossians 1:13). You’re therefore no
longer subject to the elements of this world.
This means that you must refuse to be snowed-under by infirmities and harsh
elements of this world that make life unbearable for the ordinary man.
From our opening scripture, it’s clear that it’s the babe in Christ—the spiritually
immature—that can be subject to the elements of this world. This is why you must
keep growing in the Lord-unto a mature man in Christ. Then you’ll be knowledgeable
enough to walk in the consciousness of your
inheritance in Him.
In John 8:32 the Lord Jesus said, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free.” If you walk in ignorance of the truth of God’s Word, you’ll remain in
bondage and suffer the same things that the people of the world suffer. You might even
think that God is the one punishing you, but He isn’t. Why will He punish you after He has “punished” Jesus in your place? The Bible says, “...He was wounded for our
transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities…” (Isaiah 53:5).
Your punishment was already laid on Jesus.
Therefore, refuse to be dominated by cancer,
diabetes, heart trouble, headaches, or any other kind of infirmities. Rise up in your
spirit and take the dominion. Tame the world with your faith-filled confessions.
Perhaps, as a businessperson, there’s been so much corruption or unfavourable policies that tend to militate against your success; refuse to be discouraged. No system or policies can work against you; you’re greater than them all; therefore, rise above them.
Function above the system. Remember what the Scripture says, “Ye are of God, little
children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in
the world” (1 John 4:4).
You were dead with Christ, from the rudiments or elements of this world; refuse
to be subject to them. You play by a different set of rules. Have this consciousness always.

CONFESSION:
I refuse to be subject to the elements of this world because greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I take my place of authority in Christ, and declare that the world is under my dominion, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study:
John 17:16 They are not of
the world, even as I am not of the world. ;
1 John 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory
that overcometh the world, even our faith.
