The Topic for Today Friday 8th December 2023 is “Walk as He Walked”.
Today’s Scripture Reference: 1 John 2:5-6
But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
Being born again, the love of God is already perfected in us. His love is shed abroad in our hearts by the
Holy Spirit who lives within us (Romans 5:5). It’s no use praying, “O, Lord put more of your love in my heart!” No! You possess the fullness of God’s love in your heart. You can love as He loves. That’s why the Bible enjoins us to “…walk, even as he walked” (1 John 2:6).
If you claim to abide in Christ, you should live as He did; emulate Him. He was love personified. Ephesians 5:1-2 tells us to emulate Him in our love-walk: “Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma” (NKJV).
We can live, act and think like Him because we have the same life with Him. 1 Corinthians 2:16 says, “…But we have the mind of Christ.” So, like the Master, never be intimidated by circumstances. In every situation, manifest the glory and power of divinity. Nothing could limit Jesus. He exercised absolute dominion over the forces and elements of this world.
Never be intimidated by the challenges that you face, no matter how tough they are; walk as Jesus walked! Today, you’re the manifestation of Him, you’re the expression of Him. This is what true Christianity is-living the Christ-life-the unveiling and outworking of Christ in and through you. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the profound truth of your Word that’s building my spirit strong and transforming my life from glory to glory. Your love is perfected in my heart, and it flows through me to bring succour to a hurting world. I’m the expression and manifestation of Christ; His glory, power and righteousness today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

1 John 4:16 AMPC;
16 And we know (understand, recognize, are conscious of, by observation and by experience) and believe (adhere to and put faith in and rely on) the love God cherishes for us. God is love, and he who dwells and continues in love dwells and continues in God, and God dwells and continues in him.
1 John 4:17 AMPC;
17 In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], because as He is, so are we in this world.
Ephesians 5:1-2 AMPC
Therefore be imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father].
2 And walk in love, [esteeming and delighting in one another] as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us, a slain offering and sacrifice to God [for you, so that it became] a sweet fragrance.
