‘And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth’ - Genesis 1:26.
LIGHT FOR THE NOW: Once you know why you are saved, your relationship with God will change.
In all of God’s creatures, only man is redeemable. The angels are perfect and therefore, are not redeemable or pardonable. This is because they are expected not to err. Man is redeemable by nature. This is because you are in the class of God, and not in the class of angels. God knew you will make mistakes, hence He made salvation available for you.
Man is made in the image and likeness of God. God made man in His nature. Hebrews 11:3 says something of great interest ‘Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God’. Man is the most expensive creature of all that God ever created. In the world system, education is the solution, but in the plan of God, salvation is the solution. Once you know why you were saved, your relationship with God will change.
A believer does not have faith on his own. Your faith is His faith. He said to Paul and to all believers ‘My grace is sufficient for you’. That faith is your daily Christian life. The faith is your identity. When you received Him, you received power at the same time. But in order for you to make progress and manifest what has been deposited in you, you have to bring yourself to be taught. The Amplified Version of the Bible say in Isaiah 54:13-14 ‘And all your [spiritual] children shall be disciples [taught by the Lord and obedient to His will], and great shall be the peace and undisturbed composure of your children. You shall establish yourself in righteousness (rightness, in conformity with God’s will and order): you shall be far from even the thought of oppression or destruction, for you shall not fear, and from terror, for it shall not come near you’. These and many more are the reasons for your salvation in Christ. One who is save does not have the spirit of fear but that of a sound mind. A saved soul is at peace with God.
INSTRUCTION: You are the only person in the image and likeness of God.
PRAYER: I know why I am
saved. I have a relationship with you as a Son, in Jesus name.
QUOTE:A saved soul is one at peace with God.
