The highest form of work

[Guest Ayubu]

God in the begining made all creation by the Word, "...Let there be..." Gen 1: 3, 6, 9,....". He later created man in His own image and likeness (Gen 1;26) and gave him dominion over creation on the earth, v28. One of the first assignment that man was to undertake was to give animals identity by naming them; "...and whatever Adam called each living creature, that was it's name".Gen 2:19. It was after the fall of man that he was to eat out of toil and sweat, Gen 3:17-19. Jesus in His ministry did many miracles by the word of His mouth, "Your sins are forgiven" (Lk 5:20); "Lazarus, come forth.."( Jn 11:43). "Pull up the first fish you hook, and in its mouth you will find a coin worth enough for my temple tax and yours."(Matt 17:27) e.tc. We also see the apostles doing the same; "rise up and walk."(Acts 3:6); "behold, the feet of them that have buried thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee out." (Acts 5:9). We see this very consistent with "21Death and life are in the power of the tongue; And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. " (Prv 18:21).

Could it be that God having made man in His image and likeness intended man to do his work like Him, by the word of his mouth, and that as we get to grow in sonship to the full stature of Christ, having the mind of Christ (1Cor 2:16) can also operate like that in our day? Just a thought.

If the highest form of work is talking, I know people who love the sound of their own voices ....and they'll likely never suffer from burnout.

Yes, this can be and is. In Galatians I see a awesome scripture. Talking about if a child is a child, the child is as a slave even though he is above the slave, yet in his own time, the manifestation of the sons of God shall be known, when God see fit, who sets us apart from the whom, as the apostle Paul experienced, this also will happen for those who will become the sons of God in full measure.

To as many as received Him to them He gave power to become the sons of God.

I have discovered this means when we receive Him we are spiritually metaphorically conceived in the womb, and when we do what we are commanded, God will empower us to be born again again, meaning, we come out of the womb, and come into the world.
