Rhapsody Of Realities 4 August 2026 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): Don’t Try To Become

TOPIC: Don’t Try To Become (Rhapsody of Realities 4 August 2026)

For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified (Hebrews 10:14).

Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

Many approach the Christian life as a process of “becoming”: trying to grow into righteousness, striving to attain perfection, and working toward a “glorious life” they believe lies ahead. But the Gospel presents a different picture. You’re not trying to become righteous; you are righteous. You’re not working towards perfection; you’ve been perfected in Christ. You’re not striving to have the life of God; you have it now. You must therefore align your thinking accordingly, in agreement with God, for two can’t walk together except they’re in agreement.

Christianity isn’t a journey toward an uncertain destination; it’s the revelation of what has already been accomplished for you, in you, and through you in Christ Jesus. The moment you were born again, you were brought into the finished redemptive works of Christ. The opening scripture says, “For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.”

The struggle many experience comes from trying to become what God has already made them. But the Bible says, “But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption” (1 Corinthians 1:30). Christ is your righteousness. He is your sanctification. He is your wisdom. Blessed be God!

Consider the profound truth penned by the Spirit through the Apostle John: “Beloved, now are we the sons of God…” (1 John 3:2). We’re not trying to become sons of God; we already are, and we reign in life (Romans 5:17). The world belongs to us because we’re joint-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17).

This understanding should change how you live. Don’t approach life from a place of lack or deficiency but with the mentality of abundance, completeness, dominion and power. Don’t struggle to please God; walk in the reality that you’re already accepted in Christ (Ephesians 1:6). When you understand this, your faith becomes bold and effective. You speak with certainty, act with confidence and live with assurance because you know all things are yours (1 Corinthians 3:21).

This is the power of the Gospel: you’re not trying to become anything; you’re expressing what God has already made you. You’re living the life He’s given you. He’s made you an associate of the God-kind (2 Peter 1:4). He’s blessed you with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:3). Live with this consciousness and your life will reflect the glory, righteousness and dominion of Christ.

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for making me righteous, perfect and complete in Christ. I live with the consciousness of who I am in Him, and my life is an unending stream of blessings and the miraculous as I reign in life and express your divine nature in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
