God’s Nature


Text: II Pe.t 1:4 More Lessons: 1Jn 2:12-20

We cannot get enough of the Word of God which brings God to us. The environment of heaven finds expression in the Word of God. The more of the Kingdom of Heaven we want to experience, the more of the Word we must deliberately digest. Growing in the Word of God requires discipline and a lot of effort at first, but as we make a habit of reading and meditating on the Word, we soon begin to build our lives around it with ease. Every time we receive the Word, we receive God. All of that is simply to say that the reason God gave us His Word is to make us like Him.

Beyond the breakthroughs and miracles that we receive as we walk in God's Word, the ultimate invitation of God for us is to become like Him. This is the very heart -beat of the Father. God is building Himself into us by the instrumentality of His Word; He wants to totally transform us. This is the ultimate assignment of God's Word in us; to upgrade our present reality into God's realm of dominion. God is constantly changing our lives into His image.

Through every victory, deliverance and healing, God is calling us to become channels of deliverance, healing and victory to the world around us. The life of God must be seen in and through our daily lives, for this is the ultimate work of the Word in us. The Living Book is given to make us living books and epistles to our generation.

We are called Christians because our biggest responsibility is to be like Christ, walking in the divine nature of Christ; a life that absolutely portrays heaven on earth. Jesus walked the earth many years and never felt sick, rather, he healed the sick. This is because no virus or disease can thrive in the divine nature of Christ, none, not one! The divine nature is an absolutely supernatural life that natural people cannot resist. And this is one of the greatest tools for evangelism. God is calling us out of this present noise into maturity of soul and spirit. It is God's desire that our every word and deed beams the Gospel to that person who might never get to read a Bible. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,...: Col. 3:17. Let us live in the consciousness that we are the living epistles of the Gospel of Christ today. For it is only through contact with the Word that we can impact our world.
