You are God’s greatest creation!

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 NKJV
 
God created you in His image and likeness. He created you to be like Him in some ways. The Lord created you to live in an eternal loving relationship with Him! 
 
There is great mystery in God’s revelation to mankind. The bible teaches truths that may seem contradictory. They are not. 
 
Our words carry the power to bless and to curse but we do not have creative power. God created us to be like Him and yet we are born with a sinful nature.
 
One day each of us will die a physical death but Jesus defeated the power of sin and death. We all sin and fall short of the glory of God but we can still be declared righteous through faith in Jesus Christ!
 
God was very pleased when He created you!
 
The Lord created you to be an extension of His authority. He created you to represent Him on the earth. Jesus created you to love His people. God did not create you because He was bored and lonely. The Lord has a plan and a purpose for your life!
 
Our mission as Christians is to know Jesus Christ and to Make Him Known to the world!
 
The work God prepared for us before the foundations of the world begins with knowing Him. 
 
Is Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior? Do you know Him?
 
God is Omnipresent (everywhere at once), He is Omnipotent (all powerful), He is Omniscient (knows all things). The perfect, ever present, all powerful and all knowing God loves you with an everlasting love! 
 
Do you love Him?
 
Today God is saying, “You are mine, I am your God. You are My child. Let the light of My love shine before all the world! “I am with you! Go in My name! Do all that I created you to accomplish!”
 
We live in a world reeking of sin and death. You will receive no encouragement or confirmation of your faith from the current world system. Jesus will uphold you and empower you to complete the work He created you to accomplish in Him and for Him!
 
Lean on Jesus as you go out into the world to do the good works your Heavenly Father created you to accomplish for the glory of God!

    ​Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!
     
    Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV
     
    The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ! 
     
    This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.
     
    The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.
     
    The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him! 
     
    Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved. 
     
    God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!
                       
    Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.
     
    We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus! 
     
    Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.
     
    God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!
     
    Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!
