TOPIC: His Life And Light In You (Rhapsody of Realities 19 April 2025)
In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not (John 1:4-5).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
Do you truly know what it means to have Christ in you? This is one of the most profound truths in the Word of God, and when you grasp its significance, it will revolutionize your entire outlook on life. Let me share with you both the spiritual and scientific implications of this extraordinary reality.
The reality of Christ in you is a profound truth that science struggles to define. Scientists cannot locate the essence of life within the human body. They can pinpoint the heart, the brain, and other organs, but the life-force itself remains elusive. Life—the very thing that animates every living being—is undetectable.

Now consider this: the life that scientists can’t find, the essence they can’t locate, the phenomenon they’re unable to explain, became flesh: “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us…” (John 1:14). Jesus Christ is eternal life encapsulated in human flesh; this is the greatest miracle to ever occur. Who is Christ? He is the divine essence, eternal life personified; the embodiment of life itself. He said, “…I am the way, the truth, and the life…” (John 14:6). When you have Christ, you have life, the very essence that sustains all creation.
Now let’s talk about light. Light is another phenomenon that challenges human understanding. It is difficult to describe light without referencing a greater light. In the presence of a stronger light, a lesser light fades into paltriness. For example, a candle light in the bright noon sun has no visible effect.
This brings us to what Saul of Tarsus experienced on the road to Damascus. He recounted that a light from heaven, brighter than the midday sun, shone around him (Acts 9:3). This was no ordinary light; it was the true light—Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “…I am the light of the world…” (John 8:12). This is the light that lights every man who comes into the world (John 1:9).
When He declared Himself as the light of the world, He wasn’t referring to a physical light but to a spiritual illumination that transcends all understanding. He is the source of all light, the essence that gives meaning and purpose to life.
To have Christ in you, therefore, means that the very life and light of God dwell in you. It means you carry within you the hope of glory, the power that sustains the universe, and the wisdom that confounds the world.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the supernatural life you have given me in Christ. I am grateful for your life and light in my spirit. I stand firm in the truth of who I am in Christ; I walk in the consciousness of this truth, illuminating my world and bringing glory to you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

John 8:12 (KJV); Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
2 Corinthians 4:6 (NKJV); For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:9 (KJV); But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
