Additional Verses

📖 Genesis 12:1-3; Psalm 139:1-24; Mark 16:15-20

Every human being knows that they have been created in the image of God, but not many know how much value they are of. If you are one of those who does not know how much value you are in the presence of God, this is the time for you to learn. Being unique means that you are a deliberate, one-of-a-kind creation, with specific, intentional purpose. Very special in the eyes of God. Psalm 139:13-14 says, “For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because l am fearfully and wonderfully made, your works are wonderful, l know that full well.” God has tailored specific tasks and a purpose for your life that only you, can fulfill. You are not an accident, God intentionally formed you from the beginning of life. In 1 Peter 2:9, Peter explains the value of every one of God’s children. He describes you as a chosen generation, a special species. You are extraordinary. You belong to a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and God’s own special people. There was never, at any time, since creation, anyone like this generation or anyone whom God ever called by this title. However, a promise of such a generation to which you have been called to be a member, was made to Abraham in Genesis 17:6 when God said to him, “I will make you very fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you.” You are actually a fulfillment of this promise to Abraham. The anointing to kingship was instituted by Jesus Christ who, according to Revelation 1:6 made us kings and priests to His God and Father. Jesus Christ did not just declare you a king and priest but He also gave you His authority over all adversity as explained in Luke 10:19, “I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy and nothing will harm you.” You can therefore issue the same commands which Jesus Christ issued and you will get the same results as He did. John 14:12 says, “I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what l have been doing. He will do even greater works than these, because l am going to the Father.” Mark 16:15-20 explains to every child of God the extent of the authority given to everyone who believes in Jesus Christ. Furthermore, through the anointing, the very presence of Jesus Christ is in you as He explained in John 17:22-23a, “I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one. I in them and you in me.” When God looks at you, He sees His Son Jesus Christ by Whom He prized you. God no longer looks at you in your former state, for the former was blotted out and as Paul says in 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore , if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation, the old has gone, the new has come.” You belong to a new generation of kings and priests. God ordained you to this royal priesthood for His Own special purpose and this purpose is to win souls to Jesus Christ as He commissioned you in Matthew 28:18-20. “Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything l have commanded you. And surely l am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Because you are a ‘designer original’ you must not compare yourself to others, but you must understand your specific, God given identity. You were therefore called to serve God by declaring His Word to many souls who have not yet received the Good News of their salvation in Jesus Christ. You must know that time is running out and it is your responsibility as a child of God to exercise the authority that God has bestowed upon you by winning souls to Christ Jesus everyday just as Christ did when He was on earth and what all the Apostles did. Alleluia!

Prayer

Almighty God, I thank You for making me unique through Your Son Jesus Christ. I believe that I am a new creation and therefore a peculiar and chosen generation. I thank You for Your Holy Spirit who lives in me and makes me unique. I thank You Father in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
