Living like Jesus
Text: Genesis 1:26 “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.”
Beloved, this scripture shows us that you are born into the “God- class”; you have the same spiritual capacities and capabilities like God. You have the life and nature of God in you now.
John 15:5 “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.”
This shows that you are vitally united with Christ; not only do you have His life and nature, you also have His ability, anointing, grace etc. The vine and the branch have the same consistency; they are made of the same substance. This means that everything that Christ has in Him, you have in you as well!
Ephesians 5:30 “For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones”
This means that you can live like Jesus and walk like Jesus, talk like Him and accomplish awesome things like Him, because you are a member of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. You are united or “have become one” with Him who overcame death, hell and the grave. This makes you the most incredible awesome creation on earth. Hallelujah!
Child of God, be conscious of this and begin to reign in life according to scriptures.
The ‘same” life and power that is in Jesus Christ is at work in you now.
You can have success beyond your natural ability irrespective of the negative circumstances around you, because the greater one lives in you.
1John 4:4 “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”
The greater one lives in you now and He gives you all the wisdom, strength and power you need to live and walk like Him. This is why you can not fail in life, because His power in you makes you a success.
