“and without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16
Glory! This is beautiful.
The AMP rendering tells,
“and great and important and weighty, we confess, is the hidden truth (the mystic secret) of godliness. He [God] was made visible in human flesh, justified and vindicated in the [Holy] Spirit, was seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, [and] taken up into glory”
Oh! Glory!
You see, this is the reason why I cannot live a mediocre life. I cannot live an ordinary life; I am too loaded.
Many of God’s children have become so churchy today, we’ve got to go beyond our churchiness. Many have been in church for so long and have heard a lot of things in the house of God but they don’t assimilate them to have these things run in them.
If you are in this category, you’ve got to consciously walk out of that path; it’s the part to destruction. Without Faith and reverential fear, it is impossible to receive from or please the Lord.

Look at the details of our opening scripture. A mystery is something that is always communicated through knowledge.
Godliness is the life of God in man and our opening verse tells us that great is the revealing of the life God has brought to humanity.
Oh! Little wonder 2 Peter 1:3 tells
“according as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue:”
Notice that everything that pertains to the life of God has been given to us; that mystic secret that was hidden for ages. For which course, God was made visible in the flesh. It has been revealed in the new creation.
If the Godchild can only realize that he has received all that pertains to life and Godliness, he will never cower in fear or defeat instead he would rise and shine.
DECLARATION:
I live the Zoe life. I am conscious of this fact and I exercise it today.
SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE:
1 Timothy 4:8
