*ALERT AND SENSITIVE IN THE SPIRIT ALWAYS*

*|�| Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:.|�|*

On a certain day, as Jesus taught in one of the synagogues, He noticed a woman who was bent double; she couldn’t straighten herself. She had been in that condition for eighteen years. Then, Jesus said to her, *“...Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God”* (Luke 13:12-13).

Although the religious leaders present were indignant that Jesus healed the woman on a Sabbath day, the Master’s response revealed something striking. He said, *“...ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?”* (Luke 13:16).

The Master stated clearly that it was Satan who kept the woman in that condition through “a spirit of infirmity.” And as soon as He dealt with the spirit, the woman straightened up; she was made whole by the power of God.

Jesus understood the spirit world. He knew life was spiritual, and demon spirits are real and responsible for a lot of the infirmities that people suffer from. And through the Scriptures and insight He grants us by the Holy Spirit, we understand how to identify Satan and his works.

If you don’t know the Scriptures, you could be a victim of Satan’s devices. Study and meditate on the Word often; speak in tongues every day; be filled with the Spirit, and your spiritual alertness and sensitivity will always be at its peak. There’re spiritual dimensions to life. You need to know what God initiates, and what the devil instigates. The Bible says *“...we are not ignorant of his* (Satan’s) *devices”* (2 Corinthians 2:11).

*CONFESSION*
*By the authority given me in Christ, I keep Satan and his cohorts under my feet! I live in God’s glory, walking in divine health, peace, safety, abundance and joy. I walk in the fullness of the blessings of the Gospel today. Hallelujah!*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*James 4:7*
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

*1 Peter 5:8-9*
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

*1 John 4:4*
Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

*YOUR NAME IN THE BOOK OF LIFE*

_And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life…(Revelation 22:19)._

Many have assumed that when someone gives his heart to Christ, that’s when his name is written in the Book of Life. But that isn’t what the Bible teaches. It’s never really about your name being written in the Book of Life; the problem is about being removed from the Book of Life.

In Exodus 32:32, Moses said to God, _“…blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.”_ Moses knew about the Book of Life; it’s not the book where your name is written when you’re born again, because Moses wasn’t “born again.” So, what’s the Book of Life? It’s the book where God registers everyone who was ever born into this world.

Read our theme verse again; it was a warning to everyone. God’s plan originally was to have every one of us with Him. The Bible says He’s _“…not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9)._ Everlasting fire was never prepared for human beings (Matthew 25:41), but for the devil and his angels. But God gave man the power of choice.

Whoever doesn’t find their names in the Book of Life eventually, have themselves to blame. God’s reply to Moses in Exodus 32:33 that we read earlier was, _“… Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book” (Exodus 32:33)._ What this simply means is that you live your life unto God.

Walk every day in love and in righteousness, and your name will remain in the Book of Life. Live a life that glorifies Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:15 says, _“And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.”_

PRAYER:

Faithful and righteous Father, thank you for the privilege to be a witness of your saving power; I pray for souls around the world today, to receive your Word and be converted. Also, I declare that my works in the Kingdom, and walk with you, are purified by your Spirit, for your glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:

_Isaiah 50:7 TLB; Because the Lord God helps me, I will not be dismayed; therefore, I have set my face like flint to do his will, and I know that I will triumph._

_Mark 10:29-30; And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s,(30) But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life._

_Revelation 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels._

*PURCHASED BY HIS BLOOD*

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD

_For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s (1 Corinthians 6:20)._

In 1 Corinthians 11:25, the Bible records that Jesus took _“…the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.”_ His blood represents His life; He gave His life for us that we may live. It just lets you know how important you are to God. The Bible says we weren’t bought with silver or gold or precious stones but with the blood; the precious blood of Jesus Christ, Son of the living God (1 Peter 1:18-19).

_“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich” (2 Corinthians 8:9)._ In your life, the most important thing you should have your mind on is that His blood, which represents His life, is your true value. And because of that blood, you’re protected. You’re God’s property; therefore, you’re not left to the dictates of your adversaries or the dominion of sin.

His blood speaks your righteousness. You’re purified and preserved by His blood. The Bible says, _“Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us” (Hebrews 9:12)._ Thank God for the precious blood of Jesus Christ! Hallelujah!

CONFESSION:

The blood of Jesus gives me remission, justification, redemption, access, fellowship, cleansing and the blessings of the New Testament. I’m born of His Word, a new creation, superior to Satan, the world and its failing systems and elements. Blessed be God!

FURTHER STUDY:

_1 Peter 1:18-19; Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;(19) But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:_

_Hebrews 10:14-20; For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.(15) Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,(16) This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;(17) And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.(18) Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.(19) Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,(20) By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;_

*BE CONSCIOUS OF YOUR LIFE IN CHRIST*

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD

_Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17)._

When you read in the verse above, _“…as he is, so are we in this world,”_ it’s not talking about us being like Jesus before He died, but the resurrected Jesus with eternal life. We have the same life with Him now. The Bible says, _“He that hath the Son hath life…” (1 John 5:12)._ If you have Jesus, you have eternal life—the God-life; it’s not the biological life with which you were born of your parents.

That’s why Jesus said, _“…Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3)._ And when He said your biological life can’t see the Kingdom of God, He wasn’t talking about just going to Heaven; He was talking about the reality of the Kingdom of God; the dominion of God in the world; the life and nature of God experienced in this world.

When you’re born again, you experience the kingdom of God now in this life; it becomes your everyday experience; your everyday walk. This is what Christianity is. Christ is literally alive in you; you’re inseparably one with Him. 1 Corinthians 6:17 says, _“But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.”_

Having become so mingled with the Lord in one spirit, how could you be bothered about viruses, bacteria, germs or anything that ravages the world? This is why John wants you to know what you have. He says, _“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13)._

When you understand who you are in Christ, you’d realise it’s impossible for you to be sick. Once you recognise and become conscious of your life in Him, you have nothing to fear in this world, because you’re indestructible. What a life He’s given us! Hallelujah!

CONFESSION:

I have the wondrous, incorruptible, imperishable, miracle-life of God in me. I’m an associate of the God-kind! The very essence of divinity is at work in me, and that divine life surges through my being, repelling sickness, disease, infirmity, death, poverty, and everything that’s inconsistent with the provisions of the Gospel of Christ. I’m invincible, indestructible and impregnable. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY:

_1 John 5:11-13; And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.(12) He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.(13) These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God._

_1 Corinthians 15:47-49; AMPC The first man [was] from out of earth, made of dust (earthly-minded); the second Man [is] the Lord from out of heaven. Gen. 2:7. Now those who are made of the dust are like him who was first made of the dust (earthly-minded); and as is [the Man] from heaven, so also [are those] who are of heaven (heavenly-minded).(49) And just as we have borne the image [of the man] of dust, so shall we and so let us also bear the image [of the Man] of heaven._

*HTML - FORMS 3*

*File Upload Box*
If you want to allow a user to upload a file to your web site, you will need to use a file upload box, also known as a file select box. This is also created using the <input> element but type attribute is set to file.

*Button Controls*
There are various ways in HTML to create clickable buttons. You can also create a clickable button using <input> tag by setting its type attribute to button.

Type values for button control include:

submit - This creates a button that automatically submits a form.

reset - This creates a button that automatically resets form controls to their initial values.

button - This creates a button that is used to trigger a client-side script when the user clicks that button.

image - This creates a clickable button but we can use an image as background of the button.

*Hidden Form Controls*
Hidden form controls are used to hide data inside the page which later on can be pushed to the server. This control hides inside the code and does not appear on the actual page. For example, following hidden form is being used to keep current page number. When a user will click next page then the value of hidden control will be sent to the web server and there it will decide which page will be displayed next based on the passed current page.

Example and result uploaded below.


Some <form> attributes:

accept - Specifies the types of files that the server accepts (applies to file upload box).

accept-charset - Specifies the charset used in the submitted form (default: the page charset).

action - Specifies an address (url) where to submit the form (default: the submitting page).

autocomplete - Specifies if the browser should autocomplete the form (default: on).

enctype - Specifies the encoding of the submitted data (default: is url-encoded).

method - Specifies the HTTP method used when submitting the form (default: GET).

name - Specifies a name used to identify the form (for DOM usage: document.forms.name).

novalidate - Specifies that the browser should not validate the form.

target - Specifies the target of the address in the action attribute (default: _self).

No need to worry, you will get the handle of this soon.

*DON’T IGNORE THE URGE TO PRAY*

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD

_Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7)._

As a Christian, it’s important that you know how to take the life that God has given you seriously, and how to respond spiritually when certain things happen around you. This is why prayer is important. When we pray, something happens. He never told us to pray in vain. Whenever you have that urge to pray, don’t ignore it.

Everyone who has the Holy Spirit would have the urge to pray from time to time, because He Himself is the Spirit of prayer. He teaches us to pray, and He prays through us. He stirs our hearts to pray and even puts words in our mouths with which to pray. As long as you’re living a Spirit-led life, you’ll always have the urge to pray. Otherwise, how do you resist the devil?

The devil is a spirit being; we don’t resist him with muscles or physical might. We don’t resist him with earthly things; we resist him with our faith. The Bible says resist the devil and he’ll flee (James 4:7); he has no option. He’s terrified of us because of the Name of Jesus.

When you come to understand the enormous power given you to paralyse Satan’s activities—whether in your life, the lives of your loved ones, your city or nation—you’d love to pray! Don’t sit idly by and watch the devil run rampage around you. Pray. Use the Name of Jesus against him.

As you fellowship with God in prayer, the Holy Spirit will show you things to pray about and how to pray. He’ll teach you how to handle matters in the realm of the spirit and prevail. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Thank you blessed Father, for the privilege of prayer and the blessing of praying in tongues. I’m responsive to the guidance and promptings of the Spirit in ensuring that through prayer, your will is established on earth as it is in Heaven, and your character and personality are manifested through me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

_We trust you have been blessed by this devotional. We invite you to make Jesus Christ the Lord of your life by praying thus:_

*_“O Lord God, I believe with all my heart in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. I believe He died for me and God raised Him from the dead. I believe He’s alive today. I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, I have eternal life; I’m born again. Thank you Lord, for saving my soul! I’m now a child of God. Hallelujah!”_*

Let us know that you made that declaration by sending a mail to info@rhapsodyofrealities.org

_1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing._

_1 Corinthians 14:2; For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries._

_Romans 8:26-27; Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.(27) And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God._

*HTML - FORMS 2*

*Text Input Controls*
There are three types of text input used on forms:

Single-line text input controls - This control is used for items that require only one line of user input, such as search boxes or names. They are created using HTML <input>tag.

Password input controls - This is also a single-line text input but it masks the character as soon as a user enters it. They are also created using HTML <input> tag but type attribute is set to password.

Multi-line text input controls - This is used when the user is required to give details that may be longer than a single sentence. Multi-line input controls are created using HTML <textarea>tag. Following is the list of attributes for <textarea> tag.

name - Used to give a name to the control which is sent to the server to be recognized and get the value.

rows - Indicates the number of rows of text area box.

cols - Indicates the number of columns of text area box.

*Checkbox Control*
Checkboxes are used when more than one option is required to be selected. They are also created using HTML <input> tag but type attribute is set to checkbox.

*Radio Button Control*
Radio buttons are used when out of many options, just one option is required to be selected. They are also created using HTML <input> tag but type attribute is set to radio.

*Select Box Control*
A select box, also called drop down box which provides option to list down various options in the form of drop down list, from where a user can select one or more options.

Example:


<!DOCTYPE html>

Note: You can not select both radio buttons: when one is selected, the other becomes unselected. As long as their carry the same name value, it works. It is however not the same with check boxes. Check boxes are meant to offer more than one selection if needed while radio buttons are used when one option is to be chosen out of many. Also, on click of the select button, there is a drop-down with options to be selected from. Before clicking it, an option has already been set as selected by default, using the 'select' attribute. Try placing the 'select' attribute in another option, see what changes.

*HE'S WITH YOU AND IN YOU*

_And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you (John 14:16-17)._

The comforting and soul-lifting words above were spoken by Jesus prior to His ascension. He knew the disciples would miss Him; so He said, “Relax! I’m going to the Father, and I’ll ask Him to send you the Holy Spirit (another Comforter). When He comes, He’ll live in your heart, and you won’t have to look for me or feel my absence. Instead of walking in the streets with you, I’ll walk in the streets in you.” Glory to God!

Jesus fulfilled His promise and the Father sent the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost (read Acts 2:1-4). Now that you’re born again, you never have to look for Jesus; you never have to cry, “Lord, where are you?” He’s in you now! That means the presence of God is in your heart! I don’t know what your perception of God and Christianity has been prior to now; but know this, if you’ve received the Holy Spirit, you have God inside you. No wonder John said, _“Ye are of God little children, and have overcome “your adversaries,” because greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4)._ Hallelujah!

Irrespective of what you may be facing in your life, there’s a new revelation; it’s the revelation of divinity in you! Paul called it the mystery which was hidden in the past generations, but is now made manifest to God’s saints, which is _“…Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:26-27)._

Adam didn’t know it. Abraham didn’t know it. Isaac didn’t know it. None of the patriarchs of old knew this mystery. This is greater than “Emmanuel” (God with us); this is Heaven in you! The fullness of the Godhead fully tabernacled in you, and expressed through you! Blessed be God forever!

PRAYER:

Dear Father, thank you for the great honour and blessing of having Christ live in me by the Holy Spirit; by virtue of His indwelling and abiding presence, I’m infused with divine energy and supernatural wisdom to do the will of God, and live triumphantly over the devices of the evil one and the corrupting influences in this world. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY:

_Acts 2:1-4; And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.(2) And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.(3) And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.(4) And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance._

_1 Corinthians 3:16; Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?_

_Acts 17:28; For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring._

*HE WANTS YOUR HEART*

_My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways (Proverbs 23:26)._

People are the same, irrespective of their condition. That is to say, the poor and the rich, for example, are exactly the same, except there’s a transformation in their hearts. If a man is poor and wicked, he won’t be different when he becomes rich. While poor, he doesn’t have the resources to carry out the wickedness in his heart. So, when he becomes rich, he’s able to prosecute the wickedness in his heart with his resources.

Money amplifies character. People only carry out the good or bad in their hearts, depending on their resources. Jesus said, _“Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt…” (Matthew 12:33)_. This means people aren’t different from how they are inside. So, what does God want? He wants a change in your heart; a transformation inside.

That’s why He sets up His kingdom first in your heart. He puts His love first in your heart. Your heart is where He seeks to work; that’s where all His blessings are. Then from your heart, they can flow out to others. Being born again, you have the life and nature of God in your heart; and now in Christ, you’re a life-giver.

The transformation and glory evident in your soul and body are the result of the impact and influence of the life and nature of God in your spirit. In our theme verse, He says, _“My son, give me thine heart….”_ If you’ve never been born again, this is your moment; give Him your heart. Turn to the Prayer Of Salvation page at the back of this devotional and pray that prayer, from the bottom of your heart.

PRAYER:

Dear Father, thank you for setting up your Kingdom in my heart. With my heart, I envision and apprehend the realities of the Gospel and of our Kingdom-life. I pray for the unsaved around the world, that their hearts be open to receive the Gospel, and be saved; that your power for salvation will mantle their hearts even now, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:

_Luke 6:45; A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh._

_Hebrews 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water._

*HTML – MULTIMEDIA*

Multimedia on the web, is sound, music, videos, movies, and animations. Multimedia comes in many different formats. It can be almost anything you can hear or see. Examples include pictures, music, sound, videos, records, films, animations, and more. Web pages often contain multimedia elements of different types and formats.

*Multimedia Formats*
Multimedia elements (like sounds or videos) are stored in media files. The most common way to discover the type of a file, is to look at the file extension. When a browser sees the file extension .htm or .html, it will treat the file as an HTML file. The .xml extension indicates an XML file, and the .css extension indicates a style sheet file. Pictures are recognized by extensions like .gif, .png and .jpg. Multimedia files also have their own formats and different extensions like: .swf, .wav, .mp3, .mp4, .mpg, .wmv, and .avi.

*Common Video Formats*
They include MPEG, AVI, WMV, QuickTime, RealVideo, Flash, Ogg, WebM, MPEG-4 or MP4. Only MP4, WebM and Ogg video are supported by the newest HTML5 standard, their media types are respectively, video/mp4, video/webm and video/ogg.

*Common Audio Formats*
They include MIDI, RealAudio, WMA, AAC, WAV, Ogg, MP3, MP4 is the newest format for compressed recorded music. The term MP3 has become synonymous with digital music.If your website is about recorded music, MP3 is the choice. Only MP3, WAV, and Ogg audio are supported by the newest HTML5 standard, their media types are respectively, audio/mpeg, audio/wav and audio/ogg.

*Playing Videos on Web*
Before HTML5, there was no standard for showing videos on a web page. Before HTML5, videos could only be played with a plug-in (like flash). The HTML5 <video> element specifies a standard way to embed a video in a web page.

To show a video in HTML, use the <video> element:

.
.
.
<video width=”320” height=”240” controls>
<source src=”movie.mp4” type=”video/mp4”>
<source src=”movie.ogg” type=”video/ogg”>
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
.
.
.


The controls attribute adds video controls, like play, pause, and volume. It is a good idea to always include width and height attributes. If height and width are not set, the browser does not know the size of the video. The effect will be that the page will change (or flicker) while the video loads. Text between the <video> and </video> tags will only display in browsers that do not support the <video> element. Multiple <source> elements can link to different video files. The browser will use the first recognized format.
To start a video automatically use the autoplay attribute:

.
.
.
<video width=”320” height=”240” autoplay>
<source src=”movie.mp4” type=”video/mp4”>
<source src=”movie.ogg” type=”video/ogg”>
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
.
.
.


The autoplay attribute however, does not work in mobile devices like iPad and iPhone.

*Playing Audios on Web*
Before HTML5, there was no standard for playing audio files on a web page. Before HTML5, audio files could only be played with a plug-in (like flash). The HTML5 <audio> element specifies a standard way to embed audio in a web page.

To play an audio file in HTML, use the <audio> element:

.
.
.
<audio controls>
<source src=”horse.mp3” type=”audio/mpeg”>
<source src=”horse.ogg” type=”audio/ogg”>
Your browser does not support the audio tag.
</audio>
.
.
.


The controls attribute adds audio controls, like play, pause, and volume. Text between the <audio> and </audio> tags will display in browsers that do not support the <audio> element. Multiple <source> elements can link to different audio files. The browser will use the first recognized format. The autoplay attribute also goes for audio as in video.

HTML5 defines DOM methods, properties, and events for the <video> and <audio> elements. This allows you to load, play, and pause videos and audios, as well as setting duration and volume. There are also DOM events that can notify you when a video begins to play, is paused, etc.

*HTML - FONTS 2*

*Setting Font Face*
You can set font face using face attribute but be aware that if the user viewing the page doesn't have the font installed, they will not be able to see it. Instead user will see the default font face applicable to the user's computer. Example:


.
.
.
<body>
<font face="Times New Roman" size="5">Times New Roman</font><br />
<font face="Verdana" size="5">Verdana</font><br />
<font face="Comic sans MS" size="5">Comic Sans MS</font><br />
<font face="WildWest" size="5">WildWest</font>
</body>
.
.
.


See the first image uploaded below...

*Specify alternate font faces*
A visitor will only be able to see your font if they have that font installed on their computer. So, it is possible to specify two or more font face alternatives by listing the font face names, separated by a comma. Example:


.
.
.
<font face="arial,helvetica"> Test alternate fonts </font>
.
.
.


When your page is loaded, their browser will display the first font face available. If none of the given fonts are installed, then it will display the default font face Times New Roman.

*Setting Font Color*
You can set any font color you like using color attribute. You can specify the color that you want by either the color name or hexadecimal code for that color. Example:


.
.
.
<font color="#FF00FF">This text is in pink</font><br />
<font color="red">This text is red</font>
.
.
.


See the second image uploaded below...

*The <basefont> Element*
The <basefont> element is supposed to set a default font size, color, and typeface for any parts of the document that are not otherwise contained within a <font> tag. You can use the <font> elements to override the <basefont> settings.

The <basefont> tag also takes color, size and face attributes and it will support relative font setting by giving size a value of +1 for a size larger or -2 for two sizes smaller. Example:


.
.
.
<body>
<basefont face="arial, verdana, sans-serif" size="2" color="#ff0000">
<p>This is the page's default font.</p>
<h2>Example of the &lt;basefont&gt; Element</h2>
<p><font size="+2" color="darkgray">
This is darkgray text with two sizes larger
</font></p>
<p><font face="courier" size="-1" color="#000000">
It is a courier font, a size smaller and black in color.
</font></p>
</body>

*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL*

Sunday 13th September, 2020.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD

*PERFECT AND COMPLETE IN HIM*

_Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God (Colossians 4:12)._

In the verse above, the words, “perfect” and “complete” could have been interchangeably used. In other words, in the place of “perfect” above, you could also have “complete,” and vice versa.

“Perfect” here is dealing with standing strong; unmoveable. It also means “mature”; to come to a state of perfection or maturity, to be “full grown.” It’s a place of fullness; fullness of understanding, wisdom and knowledge; fullness of the Spirit. Hallelujah!

Thus, Epaphras, through the Spirit, was praying for the Colossian Christians to come to that place of maturity, standing strong, complete and perfect in Christ. God wants that in your life. He wants you to be a full-grown Christian, mature to do the things of God.

The more mature you are spiritually, the more you can actually fulfil God’s dream for your life. Therefore, set a goal for yourself for spiritual growth. Say to yourself, _“I’m going to grow; I’m going to come to a place of maturity, where I only think spiritual, think mature in Christ, and full of God’s Word”_; and proceed to achieve it.

Ephesians 4:12-13 says God gave ministry gifts to the Church for this purpose: _“…the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.”_

If it weren’t possible for us to attain the measure of the fullness of Christ, God wouldn’t tell us to go for it. This is His dream. Therefore, go for it by studying and meditating on the Word voraciously, and yielding yourself to the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

CONFESSION:

In Christ dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, and I’m complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power. I live the transcendent life in Christ, stable, unmoveable, and established in the faith as I walk continually in the light of the Word. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY:

_Ephesians 4:14-15; That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;(15) But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:_

_Hebrews 5:14; But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil._
