Being born
again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which
liveth and abideth forever (1 Peter 1:23).
The angel
brought words from God to the Virgin Mary (Luke 1:35). Mary believed and
received the Word (the seed of God), and the Holy Spirit came upon her to
conceive the child without the agency of the seed of man. The Word that God
spoke to her formed the seed in her. The Word of God is the seed of God (Luke
8:11); that’s the seed of divine life, just as the life of an orange tree is in
that little orange seed.
When you
receive God’s Word, you receive the life of whatever it talks about; whatever
you’re hearing from God is the seed to produce in you, or for you, what it
talks about. For example, when we preach and teach divine healing, the hearer
receives the seed of healing and it produces healing and health. Likewise, when
we teach God’s Word on the subject of finances, it produces seed of financial
blessings and miracles. That’s the power of God’s Word!
Christianity
is no religion. Jesus Christ was the Word of God made flesh (John 1:14). We
also were born again by the same seed (Word). That’s what we read in our
opening verse. You have the same life as God Himself, because you’re born of
the Word—God’s indestructible seed (1 Peter 1:23).
You’re not
born of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God
(John 1:13). This is what makes your origin divine. 1 John 4:4 says, “Ye are of
God, little children...,” meaning that you hail from God; you’re a partaker of
the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). Glory to God!
CONFESSION:
I’m born of the Word and Spirit of the Lord, therefore, I’m impregnable to
anything that hurts or binds, because I hail from God! I’ve overcome the devil
and his cohorts of darkness, for the greater One dwells in me! I have the
nature of God; I’m more than a conqueror; I’m an associate of the God-kind, and
I’m living triumphantly every day, through Christ Jesus.
FURTHER
STUDY: Luke 1:35 - The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you,
and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby to be born will
be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.
John 1:14 - So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.
