TOPIC: DIVINE CONNECTION
TEXT: GENESIS 1:26-31
27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
MEMORY VERSE: “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. (GENESIS 1:26)
MESSAGE:
Ade tried to switch on his room light but the bulb would not come on. He was curious to find out why the light refused to come on. To his surprise, one of the wires was already loose. He called the attention of his parents, who called in the electrician to connect the loose wire. Immediately he finished, the light came on. A connection had been established.

When God created man in His image, there was divine connection, when sin came, there was a disconnection but when Jesus came, there was a reconnection. God made man in His own image to have the same power, authority and dominion that He had in an unlimited connection, but unfortunately, sin brought a universal disconnection. After the Lord Jesus came and died, mankind had the unique reconnection. This reconnection is only for the willing, the repentant and those who are wholeheartedly ready, it is for whosoever believes.
God’s plan for us at the beginning is to be connected with Him always so that we can enjoy all benefits that heaven provides. But Satan came in with sin, this has disconnected many children from God.
Are you still disconnected from God through your bad ways? Come to Jesus today and be reconnected, you will be able to hear from God, and you will be free and free indeed.
FURTHER READING: Matthew 1:21
PRAYER FOR TODAY: Dear Lord keep me connected to you always, Amen
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
