Apostle Geoffrey Okeny
John 1:12–13 (KJV) “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”
When you believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, something divine happened,you were born of God! This birth was not the result of human effort or decision. It wasn’t your parents’ will, your background, or your human desire. It was the will of God that gave you new life.
You are not an upgraded human being; you are a completely new being,born of the Spirit, carrying the very life and nature of God. You are the God-kind. Just as the plant kingdom produces plants and the animal kingdom produces animals, God produces gods. You are born from above, a citizen of heaven, and a partaker of divine nature (2 Peter 1:4).
This means the limitations of the natural man no longer define you. You are not ordinary! Sickness, fear, and defeat have no legal right in your life because divine life flows through your spirit. You live by the Word, not by feelings or human reasoning. Even when you don’t feel like you’re born of God, the truth remains, you are! God’s Word declares it, and that settles it.
1 John 5:4 reminds that, “Whatever is born of God overcomes the world” .You are born of victory, not defeat. This consciousness should shape how you think, speak, and live. You don’t beg life to work, you reign in life. When you lay hands on the sick, healing should follow because divine power dwells in you. When challenges come, you speak God’s Word with authority and expect results.
Refuse to think, talk, or act like a mere human. You are divine, an associate of the God-kind. The more you embrace this truth, the more you’ll walk in the reality of what God’s word says about you. Hallelujah.
CONFESSION
“I am born of God, a new creation in Christ Jesus. I am not defined by my past or limited by human weaknesses. I am a partaker of divine nature, carrying the life and power of God within me. I walk in victory, overcoming the world by the power of faith.I am divine, an associate of the God-kind, and I reign in life. Thank you, Father, for the gift of new life in Christ. Amen.”
DEEPER REFLECTION
1 John 5:4(KJV) For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
1 John 5:1(KJV) Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
2 Peter 1:4(KJV) Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
