Divine influence and value

God longs for her children alike. I do not know a parent who would otherwise. This is why from the beginning, he created us in his image. The Bible teaches us that man looked exactly like his father (God). That is to say, he had thoughts of Christ, the feelings that are in Christ, he spoke as God, he was with power and authority as God, his face was radiant with the glory of God. When the animals were in the presence of Adam, they bowed before his majesty. The man had dominion over all creation. He uttered just one word, and the thing he wanted appeared. He lived in the Glory of God. Simply because it looked like God. That is Divine influence.
Is it still possible today, you and I were experimenting with this dimension of God presence in our lives? The answer is YES. Because the Bible teaches us that even if the first Adam lost the glory, the second Adam (Jesus) came to die on the cross for us to give back. So if you are in Christ, you are now a new creation, created a new in the image and likeness of God. So you can again experience the kingdom and dominion, or Divine influence in your life. (1 Corinthians 5: 17). The Bible teaches us in this passage if our minds are renewed, we become aware of the spiritual realities of the world of God (Kingdom of God) and we know the will of God at all levels of our lives. We need to be more aware of God presence in our lives, and not continue to believe that demons, sorcerers act in our lives as they see fit. God has given us the Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, anointing and even he placed angels around us to serve. The problem with Christians today is that they are more aware of the world of darkness. They do not realize that they are the son of God (their identity). They often forget that God governs, for their influence and control. No demon, no sorcerer, or even Satan can not touch us without God permission. And when God sometimes allows that touches us, it is never to harm us, but it is still seen to achieve a specific purpose in our: transform us into His image and likeness.
If Christ influences our lives, we too will be able to influence our environment (both physical and spiritual). Thus, we will suffer more life, but we will take control of events in life. That is the rule!
