REVIVAL

Isaiah 43: 7

Even every one who is called by My Name; for I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him.

MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD

I close this week of comments on the need for and the way of REVIVAL with a very uplifting word; YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL TO GOD AND ARE WONDERFULLY MADE.

In today's world, many souls are feeling depressed and have low self esteem. They picture themselves as being inferior or less than others; weak, sickly and of no use. That is not the way GOD sees each individual. GOD sees the work of His Hand and loves what He has created. Each individual is made in the image of GOD and reflects His glory; each one is a work of the art of GOD.  He makes all things and people perfect and whole.

Jeremiah 1:5-10 declares that the LORD watched over the formation of each person while they were being formed and has given each a mission and a purpose. In our life, as one of His Children, we are always discovering more and more about the image of GOD and more and more about our purpose in His plan.

If we seek the LORD while He wills to be found and call upon Him while He is near, He will disclose to us the meaning and purpose of our life in Him. The purpose of each one begins with, "Love the LORD thy GOD with all thy heart and soul and mind and might; love thy neighbor as thyself." The rest unfolds as we walk with Him.

Revival comes when we call Him LORD. Revival comes when we see ourselves and others as made in the image of GOD and honor Him in them. Revival comes when we rejoice in the LORD and in His love for us; showing His love to all who come within our reach.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL TO GOD AND FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE IN HIS IMAGE. REJOICE!
