GOD-CARRIERS
(You Carry God’s Presence Everywhere)
TO THE BIBLE: 1 Corinthians 3:16
“Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?”
LET’S TALK
“Lord, we come into your presence today,” “Father God, we come before you now” are phrases often used by some Christians in prayer. And by constantly using this wrong choice of words, they inadvertently develop a mindset that the moment they step out of the church or their place of prayer, they leave God’s presence. That’s ignorance gone on rampage!
As a child of God, you don’t come into or go away from God’s presence; you carry His presence with you everywhere! You’re the temple of the living God, who dwells in you by His Holy Spirit.
When you were born again, Christ took up His abode in the quarters of your heart. He’s in you now, and you’re in Him. He didn’t come into you to leave again after some time; He’s with you and in you forever! The Spirit of God dwells in you, and He’s the conveyor of the presence and blessings of God, and all that’s been given to you in Christ Jesus. You’re a living, breathing, walking carrier of His divine presence!
Now, the power of the Word of God works through knowledge and proclamation. If you don’t know it and consciously affirm it, it won’t work for you. That’s why it’s important that you have the consciousness that you’re a God-carrying vessel, and you carry His presence in you everywhere. When you arrive, God arrives, Hallelujah! Let this be your declaration always.
GO DEEPER
2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.”
Hebrews 3:6 but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.
John 14:15-17 “If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.”
SPEAK
Christ in me is the hope of glory, prosperity and strength! I’m well! I’m sound, because He’s graced my life with His glory, with His presence, and with Himself! Wherever I am, God is, because I’m the carrier of His divine presence. Hallelujah!

1) RECREATING YOUR WORLD - Oyakhilome lays the foundation to explain why we can change our lives or recreate our worlds. He quotes the scripture Acts1v8 'But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you...' As a christian i.e. when you are 'born again' one of the experiences is to receive the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit. Oyakhilome states that when the Holy Spirit comes upon/in you, He gives you power. This power is an ability to cause changes. Equipped with this power we have the ability to recreate our world. 2) YOUR CREATIVE ABILITY - Oyakhilome states that the creative ability in us is our imagination. He gives scriptural evidence to show that our imaginative thoughts can manifest in the natural realm. He emphasises the importance of imagining positive desires and brooding over them until they become clear. Our imaginative power signifies what we can see. In the process of recreating our world we must have a definite vision of what we desire our...
