You
are not just what we are seeing on the outside. You are fearfully and
wonderfully made. You constitute millions of complexities. Being in the image
and the likeness of God calls us to appreciate the complexity and the wisdom of
God in creating us.
Your beginning/
birth is not just according to what has been registered in the hospitals and
government records. You have the highest beginning called in God. Its important
to be aware of he who was aware of us before we were even born. We were chosen
in Christ before the foundations of the world,,, eph 1:4. Paul writes a
scripture which catapults us from our natural tranquil into the heights and
elevation of God.
When
we have this view then, we delve into the realm of no impossibility. Our lives
have been engineered by God. We are a
masterpiece that expresses the most creative art of God. God has invested in
you a life that never runs out, a courage that knows no walls, a thinking that
is equal to the stature of Christ, for we have the mind of Christ,,,,, 1 st Cor
2:16. in your fabric lies creativity that n\knows no end, its a wonder that scientists tell us that a human being consumes only 15% of his brain.
I will
challenge us like this; for every problem no matter what, for every hurdle I assure
you there are more than enough ways of getting out of them. Are you stressed
because of some situations in your life? God has invested in you a relentless
spirit that sees possibilities and solutions.God has designed your brain to not only be a problem solver but a creative thinker. Are you in lack, there are
million ways of creating wealth. Talk of every need I will talk of a God who
has preceded all our needs. Before there was a need God provided. Before there
was a problem God provided all the solutions we need.Actually the apex of our thinking according to God's master plan is not to navigate through hurdles and problems in life but to enjoy creativity and coherence together with him in dominating over the works of creation. Isn't it a surprise that Adam didn't require God's help when he was naming all creatures. Can you just imagine the creativity in operation then?
Am challenging
us to mount on wings and behold the vantage point of Christ which is ours. This
is my take on creativity. The spirit of God energizing itself in us to produce
life over and over. Its said that wonderful innovations that has shaped civilization
like electricity, airplanes, such discoveries were made by people who exuded great
confidence. They actually knew God and they knew who they are, people without
limitations. People who have changed the world were normal people who were
bursting with exuberant confidence in understanding who they are(carrying the
fullness of the God head in them, they may have not confessed it but deep in
them knew it.)
The apostles
and the believers in the early church were no different, everywhere they went
they were noticed as those people who walk with Christ(Christians) and yet they
were normal unschooled men like Peter, local doctors like Luke, tax collectors
like Matthew and our lord Jesus Christ a normal Nazarite who went about
partying with sinners and visiting citizens Like Mary and Martha.
The agenda
of Christ was not superfluous, some matrix out in the space but simple, to
reveal fullness in us. The word became flesh and dwelt amongst us and in the
fullness of time the word now dwells in men. Am not saying that yee are now
Gods but am saying you are a recipient of eternal life engineered by God. Your
redeemed lives are hidden with Christy in God,,, col 3:1-3 a life full of
creativity and fullness.
A little
glance into the sub atomic world will dazzle us. Scientists will tell you that
a iota of any matter consists of millions of atoms and molecules entangled
together and rubbing against each other with immense activity.
Each
time a matter moves atoms rearrange themselves to maintain coherence That is who God
is in us. Rubbing himself together with us with immense activity. For its God
who works in us to will and to act according to his god purpose, phil2:12-13
