🔥🔥 *BE AN IMITATOR OF GOD* 🔥🔥
Creating new things, changing old ones... Because you and I are made in God's image, it's something we constantly try to do. But if you want to succeed in what you undertake, you must learn from the Creator Himself, our Heavenly Father. God didn't begin to create by accident. Before creating the universe, He first had to visualize what He wanted to accomplish. If you want to operate according to your Christian identity, you must imitate God, using the method of the inner image.
In John 5:19, Jesus answered them, “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees the Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son does likewise.” If you are born again, the Lord has shown you the method and given you the power to produce permanent changes in your life and around you. So learn to align your thoughts with the progressive revelation of your redemption, and you will build according to God’s plan.
Don’t waste your time trying to create a positive mental image on your own. That would be nothing more than positive thinking. Even if it’s better than having negative thoughts or not thinking at all, it won’t lead anywhere. Don't let yourself be influenced by what you see (the temporary); it's merely a distraction the devil uses to disqualify you from your inheritance.
You must nourish your spirit with the Word of God, basing on your identity and serving as the foundation for your inner image and the words you speak. It possesses a supernatural power that allows your spirit to return to its original place, and your soul will shine with the glory of God, and your body will be refreshed. Thus you will become an imitator of God, for His Spirit lives in you and will manifest Himself in all circumstances.
Jesus’ beloved !
AMEN & AMEN 🙏🏾🙏🏾!!
