RHAPSODY OF REALITIES // DAILY DEVOTION

But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit (1 Corinthians 6:17).

One of the biggest truths ever revealed to us in the Word of God is our oneness with the Lord. We’re inseparably one with Him. It’s the reason we can do the work of God with power. He didn’t call us to struggle through life by ourselves; He called us to live in Him and through Him every day.

Many have the wrong idea about this. They think the Holy Spirit is somewhere inside them, like a separate being living within them. But that’s not it. He didn’t come to stay beside your spirit; He came to be united with your spirit. That’s the meaning of what we read in our opening scripture: “He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.”

You’re not merely connected to the Holy Spirit; you’re mingled with Him. There’re not two spirits living inside you; no! There’s only one—the Holy Spirit, united with your spirit. This is the reason for your divine nature. You’re not alone; you’re functioning by the Holy Spirit who lives in and through you.

That means when you act, it’s not just you. When you speak, it’s not just you speaking. When you stretch your hand, it’s not just your hand—it’s your hand and the hand of the Holy Spirit, one hand, God and you as one. This is your reality in Christ. You’re not trying to get God to be with you; He’s in you, and you’re in Him. 

His presence in you is not occasional; it’s constant. Whether you feel it or not, He’s there. With this understanding comes a new consciousness. You’re strong in Him. 2 Corinthians 3:5 AMPC declares, “Not that we are fit (qualified and sufficient in ability) of ourselves to form personal judgments or to claim or count anything as coming from us, but our power and ability and sufficiency are from God.” 

The Holy Spirit is your sufficiency. You’re limitless in Him. Failure in anything or in any area isn’t a possibility because your life is now the outworking of His life in you.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the Holy Spirit who lives in me. I’m not alone; I’m one with Him. I live in the consciousness of this union, walking in your wisdom, power, and presence every day. My life is the expression of your divine nature; I’m filled with your power, my life is the outworking of your grace, and I function with divine ability today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
