"Genetically Connected"

S.E.E.D. For Today

Scripture: "It is through Him that we live and function and have our identity; just as your own poets have said, Our lineage comes from Him." Acts 17:28 (TPT Bible)

Explanation: The God who made the world and everything in it is the owner and Lord of the heavenly realm and the earthly realm and does not live in man made temples. He supplies life and breath and all things to every living being. From one man, Adam He made every man and woman and every race of humanity and spread us all over the earth. Our lineage comes from God and since our lineage can be traced backed to Him how could we even think that the divine image of God could be compared to something made of gold or silver or stone, or by man's clever imagination. This disproves man's theory of all the things or other beings that some declare we originate from. We are all genetically connected to God. He gave us life. Our nature come from Him, we are His offspring. The greek word is genos, which means kindred or family, taken from His genes.

Exercise: All though we are all of different cultures, color and character, we are all genetically connected. In the book of Job it is recorded that "In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind." (12:10) God has given us life, without Him we would have no function. Our identity is in Him and our lineage comes from Him. How valuable we are, made and created in the image of God to display Himself in the earth. You may not know your natural family lineage, but value that in your DNA is the creator of the universe. I challenge you to take a look at yourself and see your worth. You are the image of the Master of everything.

Devotion: Lord we thank you for being the One who gives us our being. Thank you for our heavenly lineage and that who we are and everything we will be is traced back to you. I pray that we will look at ourselves and others differently, that when we see each other let us always see God. You are the sheer reason and the divine principle, the logos, the spark of divinity that gives us life. We praise and glorify you. In Jesus Name Amen!

Bursting Out Of It!

S.E.E.D. For Today:  Scripture: "Is this not the the fast which I have chosen: Loosen the bonds of wickedness." ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Explanation: There should be the right motive when we fast. The people of God in Isaiah observed but there was no change in them. When fasting we do not want to look at it as a religious ritual, but a means to transformation. The fruit of repentance ought to be evident in relationship with one another and our neighbor. If we fast and persist in arrogance, stubbornness, fighting and strife then we are only doing this out of routine. Exercise: Prayer is important to experience the grace and power of God when fasting. Without the consistency of prayer we will not see breakthrough. God is challenging us to do the fast He has chosen, the first means of business is releasing or loosing the bonds of wickedness. Whatever besets itself and entangles you again under the same slave system of missing the mark with God has to let you go. I challenge you ...

THE SAFE PLACE

S.E.E.D. For Today___ Safety Scripture "God is our safe place and our strength. He is always our help when we are in trouble." Psalms 46:1 New Life Version In light of all that is going on in our world God is the most dependable person we know. Murder, and violence plague our city's and nothing seems to be safe anymore. When everything seems to be falling apart God is our safety, our refuge from the storms of life. He doesn't protect us in order to pamper us, He shelter's us so He can strengthen us to go back to life with it's duties and dangers. Trouble describes people who are in tight places in a corner and unable to get out, but we are not to be afraid. The earth may change and things will be in utter chaos, but in the Lord we have safety. Though everything around us and in us seems to be restless, God is in control. God is our safe place, in His will, in His hands He got the whole world, He formed it, shaped it, created it, and man co...

"Your Time Is Coming!"

"My Destiny and it's timing is in the hand of God." Psalms 16:5 Your way of life, your fortune, your fate, your portion comes from God. Knowing God is to know that He operates in rhythm, seasons, or times. Ecclesiastes 3 breaks down very intricately the seasons, or timing of a man's life or destiny. It tells us in vs.1 that, "Everything on earth has its own time and its own season" ( CEV ) or " Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses." ( GNT ) Being in sync rhythmically with God is so vital to the believer, operating in boundaries of our destiny or fortune, is the ability to flow in purpose. God has a purpose for each of us, you will find it to be your greatest joy as you discover the privilege of understanding the intention of God for your life. There are times as believers we find it difficult to accept what God has given us. There will be times when your ideas of what you want may get in the way of you and God...
