TOPIC: Live From Within (Rhapsody of Realities 9 September 2025)
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God (Romans 8:14).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
Ecclesiastes 3:11 tells us something remarkable; it says, “He hath made everything beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart….” The New International Version renders it beautifully. It says, “He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart….” Blessed thought! The world is in your heart. Eternity is in your heart. Therefore, live from within.
This should help you understand the words of the Lord Jesus in Matthew 12:35, “A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things….” Everything is in your heart. Think about this: not only is the world and eternity in your heart, but the One who created the world and created eternity is also in your heart: 1 Corinthians 3:16, “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?”
The Spirit of God lives in you. This is why, in Christianity, we live from within. The Christian life is lived from the inside out. The Spirit of God leads, guides, and empowers you from within. Paul, by the Spirit, said in 2 Corinthians 4:7, “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels….” Then the 16th verse says, “For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.”
The forces of life are in your heart, in your inward man. That’s why the Bible says, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” (Proverbs 4:23). If you train your heart, your spirit, to listen to God’s voice, you’ll always know what to do, where to go, and how to respond to the issues and circumstances of life. You’ll always walk in victory. No wonder He says, “My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways” (Proverbs 23:26).
Living from your spirit also means speaking from your spirit, declaring God’s Word in faith. That’s how you rule in life. The world may rely on intellect, emotion, or impulse, but you’re led by the Spirit from within and guided by His Word that dwells in you richly.
Practice this even today; pray in tongues. Meditate on the Word. Learn to pause and check within before making decisions. As you do, you’ll find that your thoughts, words and actions are in sync with God’s perfect will for your life.
CONFESSION
With my spirit, I’ve encircled and taken possession of all things; I possess the blessings of Abraham. Life, immortality and eternity are in my spirit. I live from within, guided by divine wisdom and empowered for a life of success and impact as the Spirit of God guides me into all truth and causes me to walk in victory today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY
Ecclesiastes 3:11 (AMPC) He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
John 16:13 (KJV) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
1 John 2:27 (KJV) But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
