Hello Citizens Of Divinity Nation, here is today's message,I'll be teaching in series for the next few days, I want you to take out time and listen to these messages both in audio and the ones posted here.
GOD LIVES BEYOND YOUR IMAGINATION.(part 1).
Colossians 1:27
To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
Many are shortsighted with the knowledge of this reality, they ask "where does God lives", "Does God lives in heaven" etc. The word of God has answers to all these questions,
Jesus says God is a spirit and those who worship him should do so in spirit and in truth,
John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. In your human mind think over these can a spirit live in a physical place/house, emphatically No, spirits lives in the realms of the spirit, while human lives in the physical realm; remember from the beginning God created heavens and the earth, but you might ask where was God when he created both places; Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The prophet Isaiah says Isaiah 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. Note both places were meant to be inhabited by us.
God must not have been in heaven to create it, where did he live as at then the scriptures says in
1 Timothy 6:16 Who only(God) hath(is) immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
Now let me show you in the scriptures that heaven and earth are for the flesh (Man) to dwell, don't forget Christ came as a man to redeem Man, and he went into heaven as man; I have established before that heaven and earth is a place where man will occupy,Paul establishes this fact in his gospel in 1 Corinthians 15:47 The first (man) is of the earth, earthy: the second (man) is the Lord from heaven. Note the word man in that verse which Paul was trying to make us understand, he further place more light on it 2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
Paul was a wonderful man full of Gods revelation, he was bringing many to the light that God sees us beyond a physical being but as a house he called it building of God, these is a great mystery reveled through him,in the Pauline scriptures he talked about we being the temple of God 1 Corinthians 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Remember I said God is a spirit and he lives in the spirit, man is a spirit and has a soul and a body,the spirit of man is the building of God where he lives. I'll establish more of these truths in the scriptures in the nest teaching, But know that God lives in your spirit and not in heaven, in order words heaven is inside us and heaven is not the more important, but the more important is JESUS, when you have him,you have heaven in you and God makes his home in you.
Jesus establishes this truth when he spoke to his disciples in the four-gospels in John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Remember Christ in you is the Gospel and where he lives. We'll be back tomorrow for more teachings on these series.
