"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 24 January 2012"
Today's Bible Verse: Genesis 1:26 "Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our own image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the earth, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
We were created in both the image and likeness of God. An inage is a representation or replica of one person or thing by another. An image may be similar but not necessarily identical to its original.
The term likeness is used as a gage of comparison, or analogy. When we sinned we retained an impaired image of God. Retaining a likeness of God is one of the accomplishments of salvation. Our spiritual likeness is restored in justification. Our character likeness is being continuously developed in the process of sanctification. We will be like Christ physically when we are glorified. God's purpose in our lives today is to conform us to the image of Christ.
The reason that God values people so much is that we were made to reflect His majesty on earth to have dominion and to rule God's regent. We were to rule wisely and prudently over all that God had made. God placed mankind as living symbols of Himself on earth to represent His reign.
Today's Hymn: "Glory To His Name"
Down at the Cross where by Savior died, down where for cleansing from sin I cried
There to my heart was the blood applied, Glory to His Name!
Glory to His Name, Glory to His Name
There to my heart was the blood applied, Glory to his Name
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, as we live our lives here on this planet that You have made which is out temporary home, help us to conform to the image of Christ in everything the we say and do. May Your light that is within us, shine out to a dark and sinful world that we might bring others to You. Amen
Today's Biblical Truth: "God has shared His own image with you."

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and Serve the Lord our God with Gladness. Love God More Today. Pray for our Brothers and Sisters in Christ who are being persecuted for their Faith and Trust in Jesus Christ. Pray also for God's Blessings on the Nation of Israel. Always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T," GOD Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN."
Your Sister in Christ.
