As humans, we were created in God’s image, and as believers, He has given us great authority by His grace. Genesis 1: 26 -27 26 “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”. We were the only creations that were created in His image. Psalm 115:16 (NIV1984) says: “The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to man.” We are His stewards here on earth! Hebrews 2:7 (AMP) says: “You have made him for a little while lower [in status] than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, And set him over the works of Your hands” this means that your prayers, your faith, your words and your testimony are powerful tools in the hand of God. Once you get that, you will stop allowing the enemy to deceiving you into thinking that you are worthless and powerless. Greater is He that is within you than he that is in the world!
In His presence!
Every creature has an optimal environment that allows them to live and thrive. To the fish, it’s the ocean. To the bird, it’s the sky. To the Christian, it’s God’s presence. Psalm 140:13 “Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name; The upright shall dwell in Your presence“. In His presence, we are made strong. We are cleansed, We receive His joy. We receive wisdom. We are protected. We receive His mercy. We are protected from our enemies. We are secure. We are loved. We see with His eyes. We feel His heart. We get answers for our prayers. We experience resurrection power. We receive spiritual, mental and emotional healing. His presence is the place where we live and thrive. Have you experienced His presence?
Psalm 16:11 “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy”.
