HIS LIKENESS

By -


The likeliness of a person is also known as his manner. The image and likeness are almost the same just that likeness is with a character. Likeliness is the personality of a person, also known as the nature of a person; how he speaks, how he walks, how he behaves. There is this nature of God that we would want to share, which is love.
The Bible makes us understand that God is love at 1 John 4:16 also at 4:8. Love is the nature of God, it is the first to be said in the fruit of the spirit at Galatians 5:22. God is love and this nature is in us as long as God dwells in us. His love comes upon us, we love not because of beauty or riches; it is our nature, I just love you.
God gives love and that of the flesh is lust. Lust is totally different from Love; lust is a sexual desire for someone while love is the nature of God. In fact love is a whole lot of spiritual fruits. 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 talks about the elements of love. You will see there that love does not envy, love is patience and kind, is not selfish, thinks no evil, is not easily provoked, keeps no bad record of the past (forgiveness)…
Love is a nature, is a personality that is lived. You can not be a Christian and not love, because love is a personality, it must be lived. You have to start expressing love to everyone around. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son; God did it out of love, he did not considered our past record of sins, He was slow to wrath that He did not just wiped us off to create new creatures—he forgave all our sins and kept no record of it, He has patience for us.
One thing killing most some Christians is that they lack manifesting love. If you do not have love, you wouldn’t even border praying for someone, helping someone out of a situation would be foolish to you. If you say you know God and yet have no love then you lie.
Do not be shy to say to someone “I love you” the world definition for love is lust. But God’s definition is true, tell someone how beautiful and handsome he is. Allow the nature of god to manifest; tell someone today that “I LOVE YOU”

FLYING ABOVE THE STORM

You don’t ever have to be afraid of the circumstances of life or the challenging situations you may find yourself in. You can always be at peace, because the Bible says there is no fear in him whose mind is stayed on the Lord (Isa. 26:3). It’s up to you how you react to the storms of life that come your way. It’s your decision whether you flee in terror or begin to wring your hands and say, “Oh, my Lord! Why is this happening to me?” We have all been there at one time or another: We all cowered in the face of trouble and wrung our hands wondering, What am I going to do now? But thank God, those days can be gone! No longer do we have to flee in terror from the enemy. We can rise to victory! We can rise to our full potential in the spiritual realm where God wants us to dwell. How? God made Himself plain through His creation. And the Bible often uses nature to teach practical lessons and illustrate certain truths. We can learn valuable lessons from one of God’s majestic creatures:

LET THERE BE!!!

It is not by might nor power, but by the Spirit of God, who lives in us. We have the Spirit of He who raised Jesus from death, we have Him in us. Therefore start exhibiting the nature of God, that is what He expects from you. This is the believer’s authority. God did not just leave us as orphans, He gave us His Spirit. He wants to see His sons doing great things on earth. He experts greater things from us more than what He did on earth. What is your testimony? Manifest the things of God, allow Him to explore. God opened a way for the Israelites, but His son walked on the surface of waters. Elijah commanded fire from heaven; Philip was transported from place to place—and I asked myself, was these things real? They were real, never think they were abstract. God wants us to have His kind of faith, to command things into existence as if they were already there. He just said let there be, and it was so. You don’t need bigger faith to move mountains, even as small as t

You Can't Hold Back the Dawn

By Rev. Kenneth W. Hagin But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts. — Malachi 4:2–3 There is an empty tomb located outside the city of old Jerusalem. A great stone once sealed that tomb, but the stone was rolled away and our Savior, Jesus, is alive! He’s no longer in that garden tomb, but He is risen and alive forevermore. The prophet wrote in Malachi 4:2, “But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings. . . .” If you believe upon the Name of Jesus, then the Sun of Righteousness has risen for you. Our risen Lord has provided whatever you need. You may have suffered. You may think life is over and fate has sealed your doom. But I want to tell you that fate has not sealed
