God Said You're More Than You Think

Grounded with Chuck Quinley

I don't know what challenges you're facing, but one thing I do know for certain--you are so much more than you know.

In the Bible, God reveals the truth about what humans are. It's a powerfully encouraging message from our Creator who has built us with superpowers so we can bring positive direction upon the earth.

Everything in the creation narrative so far has set the stage for day six.

* The three great threats to all life have been conquered and restrained.

* The Universe has been filled with the Shekinah light of God’s personal presence.

* A protective skydome has been established to avoid catastrophic loss

* Earthland has risen from the primordial deep, pregnant with every seed the earth will ever need.

* Sun, Moon, and stars have been created as a celestial metronome to set a reasonable, recurring tempo of activity and rest for all life on earth.

* The life force has been released in the seas and skies and millions of creatures are multiplying.

* The same power of life has been spoken across the land and new forms of life are bursting fourth in the insect, reptile, and mammalian families.

Now the great moment for us occurs….

And God said, “Let us make man in our image…”

In the case of all the other creatures, the formula of words has been “Let them have life “according to their kind.”

With humans things are different. God's creative word to them is, “You can have life ‘in the image of God.’”

Whatever we think that means, it means more.

At the foundation level it says:

* We’re created to be so close to God that we reflect Him—our heart so aligned with His that our actions toward everything in creation would be his. We’re to love what He loves and hate what He hates.

* We’re his co-regents over planet earth, wardens over all creatures, stewards over plants, seas and soil making sure everything has what it needs to thrive and protecting the creation from abuse.

* We’re each accountable for our actions and the state of the world we impact, reporting directly to the Creator.

* We have the Creator’s resources and authority behind us. It’s more than enough. (Paul said it was “above all that we can ask or even think.” Ephesians 3:20)

I really wish we could all grasp the vision God has concerning us.

So, I can confidently say to you, without fear of contradiction, that whatever you think of yourself and your capacity, your estimation is way, way too low.

I worked hard on the video so I hope you’ll check it out and forward it to others. I’d love to hear your insights and discoveries from developing your own potential and champion’s mindset.

Every Blessing!
