THEME: IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH
Scriptural texts: John.8:32 (And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free).
TOPIC: The Divine Order and Authority
Scriptural Reference: Gen.1:26-28 (KJV)
Based on the contexts of the passage we were meant to understand that the Almighty God, the great Elohim who created us in His Image and likeness have invested and inculcated in us the Divine supreme power and Authority to rule, be in charge, in control, reign as King/Queens, on this Earth though divine order. Right from time immemorial, God have given us the audacity to have dominion over everything that has breath which God have created both Visible and Invisible, Time, Matter, Space, Molecules and seasons, the Almighty God made it and designed it in a way that the Authority (I.e power to rule) in a man is awesome and quite impressive in the sense that God inculcated in man the creative abilities, inspirations, ideas, knowledge, visions and wisdom to manage the affairs of He God have created. To the extent that it was through the Lords given potentials in man (Adam) that He exercised and used it to name all the animals, birds, vegetations both in the land and in the sea and even in the air through the “Zoe”(creative life and power of the Almighty God) that he was able to do all those things.
NOTE: Through the divine ability Adam was able to name all the animals, birds, vegetations of the Land, air and seas. Whatever name he gave them that is what they bear up to this day, this shows the level of Kingship and Dominion inculcated in him.
The Fishes is the Sea: in this context has to do with the Marine Spirit, deities that operates in the water that has links with the individual ancestral lineage. We were admonished by Divine order not to worship or bow before them for he or she that does that defiles the order and is an abomination before God.
Fowls of the Air: This context literally has to do with the spiritual demonic forces in the air (Principalities, Powers, Authority, dominion and rulers of darkness) and their demons.
Over the Cattle of the Land: The cattle in this context literally has to do with the deities and so called gods and goddesses of the Land. Just like the Hindus worship Cow as their gods.
Over all the Earth: It literally means that as God’s resemblance, the Authority have been given to us to rule and reign in every sphere of lives.
Over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the Earth: We are meant to rule and have dominion over all the creeping things like pythons and serpents which most people take and regard as their gods. But the divine order states that we should not bow to them nor worship or have anything to do with them. Whosoever does that is a rebel and have violated the order and before God is an abomination. Before God, man is excusable.
Much later in the Journey of life Adam and his wife fell succumbed to the detects of the Devil and he took over their place, corrupted and polluted the Divine order to rule.
But thank God for Jesus Christ who salvaged the situation by blood atonement through the death on the cross where He stated; “It is finished” and gave up His ghost. He paid in full with His blood and life to retrieve back the lost glory and authority that was vested in man right from time immemorial that was stolen and snatched by the devil as a result of sin.
The Hallmark of everything is, Follow me to Jesus Christ the Savior and hope in this dark and wicked world. Jesus is the hope of our glory.
NOTE: At this second phase of the retrieved lost Authority and power is only those that are in Christ Jesus who have been purged, washed and bought over through the Precious blood of Jesus are eligible to operate and exercise their God given rights and power in Christ Jesus.
In Conclusion, any life outside of Jesus Christ is liable to remain in Crisis because, the Devil the wicked one is still operating under the lease of power handed to him by Adam. That is why it is highly imperative to embrace Jesus and be a witness to what happened at the cross of Calvary.
Wishing all Heaven at last (Matt.6:33). Shalom!
