TITLE: Made in His image; You are made in His image

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Romans 8:29a (NIV)

“For those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son”

Devotional:

The Bible tells us that man was made in the image of God. Of course, as we walk the earth, we may not exactly be ‘acting’ like God but Romans  8:29a tells us that God wants us to ‘conform’, to become like His son. Now, that takes knowledge, a willingness to change, and intentional action to do our bit to strive to become like Christ. One would wonder, “why do we need to do that?” The answer is in Matthew 5:14 which says You are the light of the world. When people see you, they should see Jesus. 

How do we conform to His image? Romans 12:2  admonishes us not to conform to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of our minds.

We can learn how to conform to His image through the Word of God, and through His Spirit, which will enable us to make the required changes to our life. Another way is to ask ourselves what Jesus would do in every situation we find ourselves and try to do likewise.

Here are a few reflective questions:

What implication does being made in the image of God have on my:

• Academic/Work? - Social Life? - Spiritual Life

Let us pray:

Dear Lord, help me conform daily to the image of your Son, Jesus Christ. That when people see or know me, they will have a ‘God experience’ with me. In Jesus name. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them

I am made in the image of God and I will showcase God’s excellence through my life today.

Do have an excellent day. Take good care of yourself and see you tomorrow
