TOPIC: Knowledge Of Your True Nature (Rhapsody of Realities 5 July 2026)
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life… (1 John 5:13).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
God wants you to know who you are. Not to guess, not to assume, but to know. The Apostle John, writing by the Spirit, says, “These things have I written unto you…that ye may know that ye have eternal life.” This is about your identity—what you have and who you are in Christ—NOW. You’re divine because you have eternal life, the divine life.
Consider the Apostle John, who wrote what we read in our theme scripture. During the time of the Great Persecution, after John had been arrested, they put him in a large boiling pot to fry him alive. They were determined to destroy him. But when the fire had burnt out and consumed itself, John stood up. They couldn’t kill him because there was something about him.
That’s how the expression came about, “St. John the Divine.” They couldn’t explain him. They said, “This is not an ordinary man.” So they banished him to the island of Patmos and left him there. Now think about it: was John the only one who was divine? No. What made him divine was the life he had, the eternal life of God in him, and the consciousness of that life.
That same life is what you’ve received in Christ. The Bible says you’re a partaker of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). That means you’re not an ordinary person. You’re not merely human. You’re a God-being because you have the life of God in your spirit. But this must dawn on you; otherwise, you’ll think, talk, and respond from a natural standpoint. Yet that’s not your true identity.
When the Bible says, “…that ye may know that ye have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13), it means God wants you to know and function by that revelation. He wants it in your present-hour consciousness. He wants you to be fully aware that the life in you is divine. He knows that when this becomes real to you, your responses will reflect your nature and your expectations will rise to match the life in you. Hallelujah!
CONFESSION
I’m a partaker of the divine nature, and I live in the full consciousness of the God-life in me. I walk in dominion, boldness and victory, manifesting Christ in all that I do, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
