You’re His Perfect Creation – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional March 28th

(You Were Created Without Defects Or Flaws)

TO THE BIBLE: Ephesians 2:10 AMPC
“For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].”

LET’S TALK
“Mom, how come my nose is slanted and yours is nice and straight?” Nancy complained to her mother.

“Oh, that’s simple. It just shows you how unique you are. The Lord took his time to create you perfectly, and there are no defects or flaws whatsoever in your makeup. You ought to appreciate the beautiful masterpiece that you are,” explained her mother.
“Okay, mom, I get it now. Thank you, Lord, for making me beautiful.”
“Now, that’s the right attitude,” Nancy’s mom replied.

When you read the opening verse, you come to the realisation that you’re God’s excellent workmanship and handiwork. It’s like Apple producing a state-of-the-art mobile device and proudly stamping its brand on it to show it’s their workmanship.

In the same way, God has His brand on you. And remember, everything God makes and does is excellent and is forever.

If that’s true, then in God’s mind, He doesn’t expect you to succumb to sickness, disease, or the elements of this world, because He made you superior to them. He made you stronger than infirmities and the corrupting influences and negativities in this present world of darkness.

Nothing in this world can hurt or hinder you. That’s why one of the signs of the believing ones, as listed by Jesus in Mark 16:18, is, “…If they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them….” This is how He wants you to think.

You’re not like everyone else. You’re a superior being; you’re in God’s class, created without any defect. You were made to function perfectly and excellently in life. Glory to God!

Speak:
I’m fashioned for good works, and to live the good life which God prearranged for me. My life is for the glory of God; I walk in excellence, certified for success. Not only do I have the nature of my heavenly Father in me, but I also have His brand on me. Glory to God!
