Godly image or what?

Testimony Time:-Good morning Children of Grace and welcome to a new day coupled with the assertion that the mercies and faithfulness of the Lord are renewed daily. ((Lamentations 3:22-23) The birth of this new day in the Presence of the Lord signifies certain victory on the pangs of death, having sailed through the unknown dangers of the night in the course of our sleep. Much as it is necessary to rejoice in the Lord's faithfulness for keeping us till today, let us celebrate the new day with a caution because for every moment we are kept alive by His Grace we are also linked by reduction to the end of our time in this world. It is therefore necessary to carve out Godly image for ourselves whilst on this earth. In doing so, we must remember that the first image culture was built around Cane. This allowed Him to kill his brother in Genesis 4:8 and by the same token, man allowed themselves to be overpowered by the same syndrome in all we do. To put it succinctly, since Adam and Eve undressed the image of God in their hearts to favor the Satanic influence, mens honor before God had been severely reduced because they ran out of favor of God. Man regime can now be treated and classified as ordinary prey to the whims and caprice of Satan. Unless you begin to carve for yourself therefore a new image in Christ, you will continue to be absorbed by this same spirit. And quite significantly, the tendencies to fall out of line with God's image will always be very tempting. Today therefore I ask, with which eyes do you see yourself? Are you made of God's image through Christ or secular image that lands you nowhere? The sad thing is many will not know the truth until they get to Heaven, and the very same people may have once lived as Christians. Lord on this mercy day, we beseech you to renew the right spirit in us so that we will serve under you and not above you. And in all we think, do and say, we ask that you take center stage in our affairs in Jesus name. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...
