How Are You Created In God's Image?

#05: We are designed in God’s image. The Bible tells us this in Genesis 1:27, “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”

We know that God is a triune God and if we are created in his image, doesn’t that mean we are also triune in our make up?

On today’s episode, we will look at the three parts that make up man and the core of our make up is our spirit, which is our purpose, meaning and identity.

Key Takeaways:

  • You will come to explore the answers to questions you might have around your identity and the Holy Spirit will begin to reveal YOUR truth to you.
  • We were designed body, soul and spirit. We see this in 1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭23‬, “Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
  • The body is made up of three main parts, speech, the five senses and action.
  • Our body is how we relate to our environment. It is very world conscious. It is affected by what is going on around us both directly and indirectly.
  • Our soul is made up of our mind, will and emotions as described in ‭‭Mark‬ ‭12‬:‭30, “And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.”
  • Our soul is how we relate to others. It is very self-conscious. Our souls can be in direct conflict with our spirit.
  • Our spirit component is quite misunderstood, often because it is not visible as the body, and it is more subtle than the will of the mind (consciousness of the soul). This is all the more reason to get to grips with the spirit at the core of our being.
  • Our spirit is how we relate to God. It is God-Conscious.
  • Our spirit is made up of our conscious, fellowship and intuition.
  • The more you get to know who God is, how He designed you, listening will become much easier.

Heavenly Position Guidance Challenge:

For this week’s HPS Challenge, take out your journal and spend at least 15 minutes in a quiet space if possible. We are going to do some journaling on each of the parts of man:

For your Body: Invite the Holy Spirit to show you as you read the scriptures how to bring the body you have been given into alignment with the spirit man within.

For your Soul: What truths do you believe that you can consider might be something your mind created? What areas of your life have you let your emotions lead you?

For your Spirit: What small steps could you take today to allow the Holy Spirit to lead you?

The summer of my senior year in high school, I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. As I approached my twenties, I was wondering what my purpose was and what I should be doing. As I entered my 30s, I felt as if God was calling me to entrepreneurship and started my own company.

After a few years of running my company, I started searching again for my purpose. I was working 7 days a week, 15-hours a day. I started questioning, "is this all there is?" I felt like I had missed the secret to life. Little did I know, I had.

After over a decade of running my company at the same pace and with two failed pregnancies, I hit my knees and begged God to help. I knew along the way I had left Him out of the equation of my life.

God did send me someone an amazing mentor who taught me how to operate my business by God's grace rather than my grind. In fact, I could operate every area of my life this way. One key was by co-partnering with God.

It was during this time I learned to tap in to the power of the Holy Spirit that resides in followers of Christ. This was the missing secret to life I had been searching for all those years. Now with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I can experience His fruits, love, joy, peace, gentleness, kindness, faithfulness, goodness, patience and self-control.

God has called me to share my experience with others so they can tap in to this same resource in every area of life. Join me each week on Spirit Led Life as we explore tapping in to the power of the Holy Spirit residing in followers of Christ.
