Apply Kingdom Principles For Divine Living – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional June 16th

(Speak And Act On The Word)

TO THE BIBLE: 2 Corinthians 5:7
“For we walk by faith, not by sight.”

LET’S TALK
Helen lived differently, as if she didn’t quite belong to the world around her. While others panicked over bad news, she remained at peace.

One day, her classmate, Lilian, noticed. “Why aren’t you worried like the rest of us?”
Helen smiled. “I see things differently. My life isn’t controlled by what happens around me.”

Being born again, you’re not of this world; you belong in God’s Kingdom. You must carry this consciousness every day, that you’re from above.

In John 17:14, the Lord Jesus, referring to His disciples, said, “… they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.” So, you’re in this world, but not of this world.

The Lord Jesus beautifully exemplified this when he referred to Himself as the Son of Man who is in heaven, even while physically present on earth: “No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.” (John 3:13).

He lived by the principles of the Kingdom of Heaven while dwelling here among men, and He was victorious on every count.

This consciousness will impact everything about your life, including your health. This is important because oftentimes, there are those who wonder why certain “faithful” and committed Christians suffer terrible calamities.

Some even get sick and die sick. Well, you have to understand that health isn’t a “reward” for serving God; the Bible doesn’t promise that.

Instead, the reward of your faithful service is reserved for you in heaven. When we get there, the rewards for our service will be announced, and we’ll return to the new earth to enjoy them.

However, here on earth, it’s your responsibility to apply Kingdom principles—use the Word of God—to live transcendently and keep your physical body in health.

So, keep your focus on the Word; speak it forth always. Be a doer of the Word and refuse to be moved by sensory perceptions.

James 1:22-25; Colossians 3:1-2

Pray:
Dear Father, I thank you for the privilege to live by your Word and apply Kingdom principles. I refuse to be moved by the challenges of this world, but I align my entire being—spirit, soul, and body—with your will and purposes. Thank you for the victory I have in Christ Jesus. Amen.
