IN HIS LIKENESS (Pastor Mark Fields)

The reproduction and representation of the kingdom of God lies in the propagation of the word of God.  In his likeness produces the characteristics of the kingdom God which is found in us, Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.  The likeness of God is a recreation of himself.  Man was created!!!, So we need to reestablish what God has created in us, which is himself.  The likeness of God lies within in the knowledge, holiness, righteous, authority, and in the dominion over the creatures on the earth.  We cannot forget the image that we gave ourselves or erase the image others have given us, but we can restore the image of our true self through understanding.  The enemy wants us to continue to be confused about our identity, and his intentions are to keep the knowledge of the word of God away from us.  Generation after generation stay confused because of what is passed down, good intentions.  They meant well, but their knowledge of the kingdom of God lacks understanding.   Matthew 13:19   When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.  To keep generations lost through lack of knowledge, will only guarantee destruction.  Hosea 4:6, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.  Not knowing who we are prevents us from knowing whose we are.  Get to know yourself!!!
