God’s Existence: Foundation of Everything 2. God’s Essence: Love within Trinity 3. God’s Character: Loving and Relational God 4. God’s Creativity: Image of God 5. God’s Plan: Creation, Fall, Redemption 💁🏻 Who is God? God’s Creativity and Image From the very beginning, God created people in His own image. This means every person is special, valuable, and designed to reflect something true about God. God is the Creator, and He lovingly shared this creativity with humans by giving them minds to think, hands to work, words to speak, and hearts to care. Even though sin has damaged this image, it has not destroyed it. The image of God remains in all people, but it is now broken and needs restoration. This restoration happens through Jesus Christ, who perfectly shows us what God is like and renews us so we may reflect God’s character again in how we live, create, and care for His world. 📖 Bible Readings: Genesis 1:26–28 (Psalm 8; James 3:9; Colossians 1:15; Hebrews 1:3; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Galatians 4:19; Colossians 1:27, 3:10; Romans 8:29; 2 Corinthians 3:18; Philippians 2:5) 👨🏻‍💻 Teachings: God’s image in us includes: 1. Capacity to think morally and reasonably. 2. Capacity to love, adore, and take dominion. 3. Capacity to build families, cultures, and nations. 💪🏼 Applications: 1. Mind God’s own business—have Christ-like mind. 2. Mold your image into the image of Christ. 3. Multiply godly families, cultures, and nations. 🎙Discussion: What are your thoughts on the idea that Christlikeness is the goal of Christian life? Alternative questions: 1. What have you learned from this devotion? 2. How can you practically apply our devotion? 🙏🏼 Prayer: Lord, sometimes I forget how carefully You made us. Thank You for creating me with purpose and for placing Your image in me, even when I don’t always live like it. Forgive me because I always fail to live up according toYour standard. But I praise You because Jesus lived the perfect life for me. I am in Christ and Christ is in me, the hope of glory. Please, let Your Holy Spirit mold me. May Christ be formed in me for He is the perfect image of God. May Christlikeness multiply in the world. In Jesus’ name, amen!
