LIKENESS
OF GOD
Psalms
82:1-8
Devotional:- “I
said, "You are gods, And all of you are children of the Most High” (V.6) NKJV
Each
human must wake up to know that they are not ordinary beings. God’s word says
that man is created in the likeness of God (Genesis 1:26). When a man feels he
is nobody, he will think like nobody and become nobody at last (Proverbs 23:7).
This is always the target of the enemy. Please understand that you are created
to be somebody great in life and that you shall be.
When
people say a man is like his father, it means when you see him you will think
you have seen his father. This is because he speaks, walks, reacts, and does
things like his father. The first man God created was exactly like God. When
the devil caused him to sin, he lost his confidence. It was sin that stripped
him of his qualities (Romans 3:23). At his appearance, all creatures used to
submit. His words were powerful. He speaks, and the angels carry out his instructions.
He was manifesting the traces of God. No power could challenge him. He was
rated a higher creature than angels (Psalm 8:5 NLT). He has the nature, the
charisma, and the look of victory and success. All things worked for him. He
was living above sickness. All the bad viruses turned in other directions when
he was coming. Sorrow and pain never cross his path. All this was possible
because God was in Him (Genesis 2:7).
Friend,
this is your picture. If the word of God calls you god, don’t choose to be less
(John 10:34–35). Look at yourself in a mirror and tell yourself, this is a god
on earth. At salvation God comes inside you by His Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:3;
1 Corinthians 3:16). God told Moses you are god to Pharaoh, and he did not see
it too big (Exodus 7:1). Don’t let sin, ignorance, doubt, and fear reduce you. Inside
you is the Almighty God. You are like the one the devil bows to. You are like
the one who calms the sea. You are like the one who heals the sick and can make
it. Take your place.
PRAYER:
LORD, HELP ME TO TAKE MY PLACE IN CHRIST.
“GOD
IS BORN INTO YOU AT NEW BIRTH, ARISE AND TAKE YOUR PLACE”
