Rhapsody Of Realities 6 August 2024 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT

TOPIC: You have something to do with it (Rhapsody of Realities 6 August 2024)

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the… Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father…Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied (1 Peter 1:1-2). 

Something very remarkable in all of Paul’s epistles is his consciousness of the grace and peace of God. At the beginning of each of the epistles he wrote to the churches, you’d find expressions such as the one in Romans 1:7: “…Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.”

You also find the same with Peter and even John; they understood the importance and power of grace and peace in the lives of God’s people. But then Peter takes a step further to show us something quite striking about this. At the beginning of his first epistle, as read in our theme scripture, he said, “…Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.” 

But at the beginning of his second epistle, he pinpoints how this grace and peace can be multiplied in your life: it’s through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord: 2 Peter 1:2: “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord.”

Multiplied grace in your life means increased capacity, speed, and accuracy to perform. It means more favours and greater excellence in your life with prosperity, dominion and power over adversity. Hallelujah!

But for these to happen, you have to have the knowledge of God; knowledge here is “epignosis” (Greek), which is correct and precise knowledge: a knowledge that relates with that which is known.

It’s up to you how much prosperity with peace you want to enjoy. It’s not going to happen by you praying, “Oh God, multiply your grace and peace in my life; no! He’s already shown you what to do: get to know God more intimately. Study and meditate on His Word. Be deliberate about this. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for the abundance of grace and peace that you have made available to me through the knowledge of your Word. My knowledge of you deepens as I meditate on your Word, thus causing your grace and peace to be multiplied in my life, leading to increased capacity, dominion and prosperity, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
