Rhapsody of Realities for 29 April 2026 — He Came to Live In You

TODAY'S RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME.

TOPIC: He Came to Live In You

SCRIPTURE: "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him (Acts 10:38)."

The Lord Jesus was called the Anointed One. He was anointed as the Christ, the Messiah, the Chosen One. The question is, how did it happen? The Holy Ghost came upon Him to enter into Him. This is where many have been confused. They say the Holy Spirit upon is different from the Holy Spirit within, but that is not correct.

In the New Testament, He comes upon you for the purpose of entering into you. He doesn’t come upon you to stay on you. This is why the anointing is not something that rests on an office. God never anointed an office. He anointed people. The anointing is personal because it is the Holy Spirit coming into a man or woman.

Even in the Old Testament, when certain articles were anointed, it meant they were separated. The articles that were used in the temple were not to be used for anything else. That was consecration. They were separated unto God for divine ministry. In the same way, when the Holy Spirit came into you, He separated you as God’s living tabernacle.

Therefore, you’re consecrated, not by a title, but by the indwelling Spirit. Now, if you will trust what you already got, you will do amazing things. It’s for the same reason we tell God’s people not to seek a new anointing or double portion anointing; you already received the fullness of the Spirit when the Holy Spirit came to live in you: “For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him” (John 3:34). Hallelujah!

Today’s devotional reminds us that the anointing is not something external we are trying to receive—it is the very presence of the Holy Spirit living within us. God has already consecrated us by placing His Spirit in us, making us His dwelling place and empowering us for a supernatural life. When we understand this, we stop seeking something new and begin to activate what we already have. As we walk in this consciousness, we boldly express His power, do good, and impact lives, knowing that the same Spirit that worked in Christ is fully at work in us.

PRAYER/CONFESSION

Through the Holy Spirit who lives in me, I am consecrated as God’s living tabernacle, set apart for His divine purpose. I trust what I have received and I walk in the reality of God’s power within me. I do amazing things by the power of the Holy Spirit, for His glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

Acts 2:1–4: And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

1 Corinthians 6:19: What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

2 Corinthians 1:21–22: Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
