Reawakening the greatest creation story (1)

When God said, let us make man and give him dominion over the animals, He already had the dominion over all, but in a way, he stepped aside and allowed man to have the seat of dominion over His other creation.
This seat is what the devil took away at the garden of Eden and that is what Jesus came to give back to us at the cross.
What manner of love is this that God could allow man taste His position with man, even if he said 'My glory will i share with no man". this is because we are His most prized possession. Just like an inventor who reaches the Jackpot of his inventing career, the invention that got him there will definitely gain his best attention, He could give up anything to see that invention go places.
You can also see it from way down the History lane of the Bible in the time of Joseph. Joseph was in charge of everything in Egypt and was only answerable to Pharaoh. Pharaoh trusted he could handle the job, because he saw something in Him.
this is the way God also sees us, He trusted us right from the garden of Eden and even when we lost the way, He continued to find a way for Him to trust us again - that's why Jesus came back. Unlike the Joseph case, however, He does not only see ability in us, he put the ability in us, and when He says he loves us, He means his love prevents him from seeing those imperfections that we and other humans see in us...to be continued...

  1. Now i believe this post was really inspired by the spirit of God and the timing was right because the next morning, my university Chaplain, Pastor Victor Oluwadamilare preached on this same topic - i will show this on my next post. keep an open eye for the next couple of posts which will be a series on this same topic, there is so much God has in store for you but you need knowledge to help you tap into it
