"I've loved you in Adam, and eversince..." whispered God into my hears while i was praying.
No matter how many weaknesses you may have, what a failure you may be or how messed up your life may seem...God loves you, unconditionally.
When God created Adam (in Hebrew, means MAN), YOU and I were already concieved in God's mind. God had already created us (inside His mind), He knew us before we were borned. He created us, knowing even the number of hairs we have on our head. After God created man, He said IT WAS VERY GOOD! It pleased God when He saw you and I in His mind...that day.
Man was created for glory. To walk with God in the garden, to see God face to face, to have a intimate relationship with God. When Adam and Eve were created, they didn't even have to have clothes on them. Why? I believe because when God breathed into Adam the breath of life, Adam was not only filled with God's magnificient glory, he was covered with it and was glowing with the light. Remember when Paul met Jesus and he said that the light he saw during midday, it was much brighter than the sun? wow! God's glory that was revealed to Paul that day was brighter than the hottest and brightest afternoon sun. NO wonder, Adam and Eve had no problem with their nakedness. Till man fell as a result of disobedience. They became ashamed and tried to cover themselves with their own carnal effort.
We are created for glory! We're created in the image of God. We're partakers of His glory. We're God's reflections.
Though since the fall of Adam, the man race have been degrating eversince. Let's be encouraged with what King David prayed in Psalms. "I was concieved in iniquity in my mother's womb and borned in sin..." God knew we are not born perfect. We're all borned in sin...in our fallen nature. He knows that we have weakness. Yet He remains faithful till date to His love.
He sent Jesus to help us, to rescue us, to reconcile us back to Him! Because He remains true to His love for us!
No matter what happens in life. Remember, its not the bad things we do in life that sentences us to eternal death. But its the good things that we fail we do that sentences us hell. Accept Jesus, repent of your wrongs, allow Jesus to cleanse you, to fill your heart, to mould you and to use you according to what He had created you for! Start today!
The same God who loved you in Adam, loves you today! God is faithful to His love.
Be encouraged. I believe with a heart of repentant, with a willing heart to change, with a determined heart to live a self-denial life so that Jesus is centered in our lives...failures are never fatal...
Be God be the glory!
