The Usefulness and Uselessness of humanity – 2

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy


Introduction

In my previous article, I revealed some hard truths about humankind. The Holy Spirit revealed those truths to me because He wanted to reveal our vulnerabilities (weakness and uselessness).

The Holy Spirit does not want us to walk and live in pride. That’s why he revealed that wisdom keys to me. Kindly check out that article for a more profound revelation. The wisdom keys and truths in that article will make you humble and live in wisdom.

You will learn a lot if you take the time to read the Holy Scriptures and the wisdom keys provided. On the other hand, we are useful (precious and honorable) in God’s sight. The fact that human beings are weak does not mean we are “nothing.”

There is another side to the coin. When you judge a book by its cover, you can underrate or overrate it. You must read the book and know the truth to judge it. Sometimes you have to contact the author to clarify some truths.

That’s how life revolves. You will make a mistake by judging a coin from one side because you did not observe the other side. In the same way, human beings are weak. However, we are also treasures in God’s sight. Fly with me as I reveal unique truths about human beings. Do not become proud because you are special. I am revealing these truths to boost your creativity and purpose.

 

Seven unique truths about humanity

What are the 5 human truths?, What is truth of human life?, What is the true nature of humans?


1. You are like the Trinity

 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.

So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 1:26-27 KJV

Among God’s creation, none had the exact resemblance, model, shape, and manner of the Trinity except human beings. You are so precious to the extent that God created you in his image and likeness.

Anytime you examine yourself before the mirror, see God in you. Angels have a partial image of God. God created the angels with fire and wind. However, you were created to behave like God.

You were created to think like God. God created you to live in holiness. Whatever the Heavenly Father carries, you carry. Whatever Christ Jesus carries, you carry. Whatever the Holy Spirit carries, you carry.

God did not create the animals and trees in his image and likeness. However, God created us (human beings) in his character. You have the character, attitude, and personality of God. The reason you can love is that God is love.

You become angry at the wicked because God becomes angry when he sees sinful activities. You can express joy, peace, faith, temperance, and contentment because God has these virtues (meditate on Galatians 5:22-23).

You are a spirit because God is a Spirit (see John 4:24). The real you is your spirit. The flesh (body) is a container. The disability in your flesh is not real because you are a spirit. Spirits don’t have disabilities.

It’s my prayer that God opens your spiritual eyes to see the real you in the realms of the Spirit. You were created in the image and likeness of God. The body is a container. The real you live in the body.

Freely download and read my book, how to walk and live in the Spirit, for a more profound revelation. You have the abilities of God. Whatever God can do, you can do because you were created in his image and likeness.

Don’t allow anyone to undermine you because you are God’s representative. However, don’t allow this truth to make you proud. Let these truths empower you to do great things for God and humankind.

 

2. God Almighty died for you

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

There was a man sent from God, whose name [was] John.

The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all [men] through him might believe.

He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.

[That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

John 1:1-15 KJV

I hope you know that Christ Jesus (the Word) is God Almighty (Yahweh). God Almighty lived in the womb of a virgin called Mary. God became a man (Christ Jesus) and died for our sins (meditate on 1 Timothy 3:16, Colossians 1:12-16, John 3:16).

The Creator of the Universe became like one of his creations (a human being) and died a painful death because you are precious. God cherishes you to the extent that he became a human being. He did not die for the rebellious angels.

However, he died for you. This truth should tell you that you are precious in God’s sight. People spat on God Almighty (Christ Jesus). Sinful people slapped him. God Almighty was physically, socially, and psychologically abused because of our sins.

Evil people nailed Christ Jesus to the cross. Sinful men crucified Christ Jesus on the cross because of our sins. Christ Jesus was sinless, yet he faced these troubles because of our sins. This truth should alert you that you are precious in God’s sight.

God Almighty could have sent an angel to die for our sins. However, he sacrificed himself for our sins because He values us. His creation rejected Him because of our sins. Prophet Isaiah revealed more truths about Christ Jesus’ pain.

 

Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?

For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, [there is] no beauty that we should desire him.

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were [our] faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither [was any] deceit in his mouth.

Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put [him] to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong [his] days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

Therefore will I divide him [a portion] with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Isaiah 53:1-12 KJV

If Christ Jesus (Yahweh) went through these troubles because of our sins, then we are precious! God values you to the extent that he sacrificed his throne in Heaven to face rejection, slander, false accusation, hatred, and harassment.

Don’t undermine yourself because you are precious and profitable in God’s sight. You are more important than angels, trees, water bodies, and animals. Meditate on this Holy Scripture.

 

 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

Matthew 6:26 KJV

 

3. God Almighty lives in you

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

1 John 4:4 KJV

Do you know that the Holy Spirit lives in you? The Holy Spirit is God Almighty (meditate on 1 John 5:8-9). The Holy Spirit lives in your spirit. Did you read that? God Almighty lives in you!

What a privileged to have the Holy Spirit living with you and in you. Your spirit is the address of the Holy Spirit. You don’t need to climb Mount Everest to see God Almighty because you have the Holy Spirit living in you.

This truth should remind you that you are important to God. Apostle John wrote in the first John chapter four, verses four, that the Greater one (the Holy Spirit) lives in us. The Holy Spirit is greater than the god of this world.

The god of this world (Satan) roams the earth seeking whom he can devour (see 1 Peter 5:8-9, John 10:10). However, God Almighty (the Holy Spirit) lives in you. Sometimes I wonder when Christian believers tremble at demons.

God Almighty is living in you, and you are afraid of demons? God Almighty lives in you, and you fear the doctor’s report? If God Almighty (the Holy Spirit) lives in you. Why are you afraid of sickness?

Why are you afraid of the enemy? God treasures you. That’s why he has made your spirit his home. The Holy Spirit is omnipresent. He can be at different places simultaneously. Walk and live with the mindset that God Almighty, the Yahweh (the Holy Spirit), lives in you. The Holy Spirit lives with you, so don’t pity yourself. Associate with the Holy Spirit.

 

4. You are a royal priest in God’s sight

ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

1 Peter 2:9 KJV

The high priest had access to the Holy of Holies chambers in the old covenant. The Holy of Holies chambers carried the presence of God (the Holy Spirit). No one except the high priest could enter that room because the place was preserved for the Trinity.

However, in our time, Christ Jesus has made us royal priests (kings, prophets, judges, and priests). God has ordained us in the Spirit. We have access to the throne room of God! You can enter the Holy of Holies anytime because of Christ Jesus’ blood. You can perform the duty of the priest.

 

And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him [be] glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Revelation 1:6 KJV

You can intercede for people and nations. You are a king in the spiritual realm. Kings have the power to make decisions. They carry authority. In the same way, you have power in the realms of the Spirit.

You can infiltrate the enemy’s camp because you are king (warrior and judge). You can lead spiritual battles. You can sacrifice to God on the holy altar because you are a priest. Don’t allow an inferiority complex to dominate you.

For more wisdom keys, free download and read my book on how to overcome the spirit of inferiority. Walk like the King of King's child. Live like a priest because you have a ring, staff, rod, and keys in the spiritual realm. Don’t allow people to undermine you because you are unique in God’s sight. Remember the wisdom key; I am revealing this truth to make you walk in divine power, not in pride.

 

5. You have a seat in the highest Heaven

Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

And hath raised [us] up together, and made [us] sit together in heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus:

Ephesians 2:5-6 KJV

Imagine yourself sitting with a prominent person at a social gathering. Imagine sitting with the president of your country or a prominent religious leader in a meeting. How will you feel?

You will feel good because the president or prominent person beside you carries honor. In the same way, you (the Christian believer) are seated with Christ Jesus in the Heavenly place. This Heaven (throne) is far above principalities, fortresses, and spiritual strongholds.

You are a sergeant, commander, major, and general in the spiritual realm. Your seat is next to Christ Jesus' (the King of Kings and Lord of Lords) seat! Your seat signifies power and authority.

Demons cannot dominate you. Command the demons, and they will obey. Command demonic diseases, and they will leave. You can control God’s creation, and they will obey because of your seat in the Heavenly place.

You have power over God’s creation. You are not ordinary because you are seated with Christ Jesus in the highest Heaven. Lucifer desired this seat. However, he didn’t get it. Satan lusted over these seats, but he could get them (see Isaiah 14:12-14).

However, you (the Christian believer) have access to this seat. You are too precious! Satan and his minions are jealous of you because you have access to this heavenly throne. Rejoice in the Lord, precious one. Use this power to set the captives free!

 

6. You can make decisions with God

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Isaiah 1:18 KJV

Imagine the president of your country or a different country invites you to share ideas with him. How will you feel? Imagine a prominent leader inviting you to his house or office to share ideas.

How will you feel? In the same way, God Almighty (the King of Kings and Lord of Lords) is inviting you to reason with him. You can plead with God Almighty (Yahweh). You can convince the Trinity of your plans.

If you are not treasurable, God will not have welcomed you to think with him. A prominent person will not invite you to his chambers to discuss if you are not important to him. The prominent person values time, so he will not allow anybody to waste his time.

The prominent person giving you his time means you are valuable to him. In the same way, God values you. That is why he is calling you to share ideas with him. Imagine the omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient God inviting you to share your opinions with him.

Isn’t that honorable? You are not insane, ordinary, and unprofitable. You are important to God. That is why he is inviting you to his table. God needs you (see Revelation 3:20). Don’t allow people to waste your precious time, energy, and resources. Don’t allow people to undermine you because God needs you in his chambers! (Meditate on Isaiah 41:21, 1 Samuel 12:7).

 

 7. You are a light

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

Matthew 5:13-14 KJV

Salt gives taste to our food. You can use the best meat, fish, and ingredients in your stew and soup. However, without salt, the soup and stew will be tasteless. Jesus says you (the Christian believer) are a grain of salt to the world.

Without you, life will be meaningless to the unbelievers, like the soup and stew without salt. You are the salt in the unbeliever’s soup and stew. Your presence makes the unbeliever hopeful because of the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit.

Without the sun or light, we cannot see with our physical eyes. In the same way, you (the Christian believer) are a light to the unbelievers and God’s creation. The Holy Spirit living lives in your spirit.

You have the light of the Holy Spirit. However, the unbelievers live in darkness. Demons control numerous unbelievers (see 1 Corinthians 2:14, 2 Corinthians 4:3-4). Your presence brings them to their senses.

Your holy presence makes their demons uncomfortable. Your righteous lifestyle makes them aware of their darkness (hopelessness and evil). Your presence reminds them of a Savior and Lord.

Don’t look down on yourself because you are unique. Christ Jesus sees you as a leader (light). You are a deliverer (salt). You are important to the world! Become a light by praying this prayer of salvation.
