TEXT : GENESIS I:26-28
THE PARTNERS OF GOD.
"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.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
Man upon creation received a mandate to govern the earth.
He was given absolute authority to cultivate the earth and to develop it.
Man initially lost this authority to Satan when he crept into the garden and deceived them.
It was a terrible day, the earth began to develop thorns, the ground lost it's productivity, the seeds lost their yield.
A force of retardation was introduced into creation.
Death was introduced, so man who was supposed to live forever began to die.
His mortal body became corrupted and his betrayal sowed the seed of decease and death.
Since it took the disobedience of one man to lose our corporate authority, it would also take one man to restore man.
Jesus Christ, the model man came and did that.
Man with a restored authority is fully in charge and in full control of the universe.
Beloved, this authority is dispensed by vocalizing your position in Christ and the things you want to see.
Say it as you want to see it not as it is.
Soon you will discover that God is not a liar.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
