CREATED TO RULE

  CREATED TO RULE Genesis 1:26-31 Devotional:- “God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”” (V. 28) NIV The major purpose of creating man was to rule over the earth. This is because the purpose of a product is in the assignment given to it to carry out. The reason why God wanted us to rule the earth was to make us represent Him here, to disallow the enemy from ruling the earth. So our rulership was a delegation. It is very clear in the scripture, God’s manual of man, that we are created to rule. That is, to take over, take control and have dominion over the earth. A producer is only successful when the product serves the purpose of production. When authority is delegated to a man, it often comes with a measure of power and liberty to operate it.

THE LIVING GOD

THE LIVING GOD 

Devotional:- “As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father so he who feeds on me will live because of me” (v.57)

    God is the author of life, so, He is the living God. He is the one that gave the breath of life to the first man and life came into him (Genesis 2:7), All other gods may be lifeless but God is the living God. Very many heroes and prophets that men worship started living at a time and now have died and are no longer alive. But God is the eternal life. Even though Jesus had to die for our sins, the grave cannot retain Him for in Him is life and that is why He could resurrect.

Jesus was sharing in our scriptures today and telling the people of the need to feed on Him to gain the life of God. But they could not understand. To feed on Him Is to partake of the communion table, which is a figurative representative of His body and His blood. To feed on Him is to meditate on His word daily (Deuteronomy 8:3). Jesus says, that as we partake of this, the same life of God in Him begins to transfer to us. Since He is life, feeding on Him makes us have the life of God in us (John 6:53). It is the reason why as believers we have eternal life in us. That is why as a child of God, you must always partake of the communion table. You must always meditate on the word of God (John 6:63). And you will be able to retain His life in you. Refuse to give in to death in any area of your life, for He that is in you is the author of life.

Prayer: Lord, let your life be transferred into me daily.

“LIFE IS TRANSFERABLE BY BIRTH”
