26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,
4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Life or Everlasting life is the word ZOE . it is the spiritual subtance in God that makes God, God ,. Just as blood is the substance in you , Zoe is the substance that makes Him a living spiritual being . The Life is called Everlating bec is unending in it quality.
It is the spiritual subtance that God has in Him
The Spiritual living water which flows in God like blood flows in the physical body
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.’
Zoe is called evelasting cos is unending in it quality inside God , it is what He use to sustain all the existence . and circultes back to him.
36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. [For all things originate with Him and come from Him; all things live through Him, and all things center in and tend to consummate and to end in Him.] To Him be glory forever! Amen (so be it).
God is always 100% power flow … no matter how much he gives.
Now this is the LIFE that Jesus lives on Earth …
26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,
The ZOE was in HIS SPIRIT. it is the same ZOE that come to our spirit when we belived in Jesus the son of God and were born again . Infact , it was the entry of ZOE into our spirit that recreated our spirit and made us new creatures in Jesus
4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
10 He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
SO HOW DO WE CONTINUING IN LIFE.
3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
After been born again we can CONTINUE to receive ZOE . into our been Through KNOWLEGDE of the exceeding great and precious promises of God in the Biblke that promise us this ZOE.
It is essential for every christian to appreciate what ZOE is and why it is necessay to continue to have it’s flow into your spirit , soul and body throughout your christian life .
Also it is necessary to see how the amount of ZOE is your spirit , soul amnd body determines how successfully you can walk in the Spirit and GET answers to prayer ..
18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
So How does it WORK
5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
Here the scriputure paints a vivid pictures us being vitally united or connected to Christ our Lord.
Functionally, this implies that there is to be continuous flow of God ‘s life from Christ (the Vine ) to us (the branches ).
3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,
4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
Godliness is the manifestation of the Nature and charater of God . it is the presence of ZOE in great measure in the human spirit, soul and body ,
that will Lead to manifestion of the nature and charater of God in our daliy conduct and experience
There are
Promises
19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Commandements
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
Statement of Faith
24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.
it is important to note no confession of any promise and commandement or statement will produce godliness , or result or effectul if our hearth is not full of ZOE .
When we speak God’s word of promise , commandement or statement of fact, those word will be creative and effectual only if our hearts or spirit are full of ZOE.
WORDS and LIFE.
When we speak or confess words , our words contain spiritual substance . This Spiritual substance could either be good or bad . WORDS are containers or vehicles through which spiritual power is released into phsyical world .
63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.
THIS IS WHY IS SAID TO PEOPLE I AM NOT A Councillor .. I SPEAK LIFE .
if our spirit or hearts are full of ZOE , then our words will also be full of ZOE . it si because God is full os ZOE that God’s words are living anf powerful . what God says become a physical reality .
12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
37 For with God nothing will be impossible.”
the reason many people speak and nothing happens is bec their heart arenot full of ZOE.
12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Worrell Translation .. because no WORD FROM GOD SHALL BE WITHOUT POWER.
To have waht you speak come to pass your heart must be fullof ZOE.
7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.
45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
The good treasure that will bring forth the good things of Godliness is ZOE . This is also true when we pray in other tongue .
2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
So constant flow of ZOE into our spirit and then our souls and bodies is an essential and foundational prerequiste for victorious christian living and effectual prayer life .
THE LIFE AND POWER SCRIPTURES
The Specific scriputre that either promise or stated that ZOE is available to us and we call them LIFE AND POWER SCRIPUTRES . All Scriputres that promise life, power and strength , essenctially promise ZOE .
It is important to note that contant flow of ZOE in our spirit , soul and bodies is not automatic .Rather it will only occur as we consciously and deliberatetly exercsie faith in the word of GOD that promise ZOE..
Example healing does not flow automatically until you consciously and delibrately exerce faith to recives through healing scripures .
12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
28 for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’
8 But there is a spirit in man,
And the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding.
18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
9 But as it is written:
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—
16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man,
