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.

NOTE: Knowledge is the key to everything. To pray and pray through, to walk with God and walk in power, to serve God with evidence, to prosper in all your endeavors, to operate supernatural power, to experience miracles, you need knowledge.

‘I am God’s kind’ means that you are a specie and product of God. For instance, regardless of the breed, a dog is a dog so If you are God’s kind, you are a god. God wants you to live in your kind. Every human being is God’s kind, believer or not because every human belongs to God. When you begin to realize you are God’s kind you will begin to realize how to live your life better than you are now. As you are now, you are not living to the fullness of your existence. Many of us carry the mentality that we are human beings but rather we are God-beings.

Psalm 82:6--I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
Psalm 8:3--When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

If the things God created never malfunctioned since creation why then should you malfunction? We are better than creation, the moon and the sun and all of creation are created to serve you. God didn’t create man to be fruitful, rather he created man and blessed him, and that blessing is the force to be fruitful and to multiply.

Psalm 8:4--What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

You are so special to God because you are not like other things of creation; those things are not like God. You are so important to God because you are God’s kind and everything you will ever need He has made it. You are created to rule and dominate regardless of challenges. Your matter matters to God.

Psalm 8:5--For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honor.

You are made with a body so you can live in this lower planet. You must allow your divine being to subdue and control your humanity. If you allow your body to obstruct your God-nature, you will live a limited life. It is time to bring up the God part of you. Your limitation is caused by ignorance- inability to identify that the God part of you is superior to the human aspect of you. The God part of you has been crowned with glory and honor.

Genesis 2:7--And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

You are created as God’s kind to dominate the works of His hand. When you have dominion power you can also recreate what God has created. What attracted the devil to man is the crowning of glory and honor. There’s nothing the devil wants to steal from you but your glory and honor. In the beginning, Satan succeeded to steal it but God restored it back in Christ Jesus.

Hebrews 1:1-3--God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

Each time God speaks, it is because He wants to reveal something in you, through you and by you. When He reveals, there is an unveiling mystery that unfolds upon your life and you begin to function in the capacity that He wants you to function. The devil thought he had successfully robbed mankind but he didn’t know that was the beginning of his failure. If you want to know the express image of the father you can see it in the Son—Jesus Christ. The same way Jesus reacts is the same way the Father will react. God’s express (fastest) image is discovered in Christ. The best way to understand your true identity is in Christ.

Hebrews 1:4-5--Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

What kills man’s glory and honor is SIN but God came in the flesh to take away sin and restore glory and honor. God came into man; man must come into the Son to become god. You must be in Christ before you can exercise your authority as god. Receiving Christ is receiving a function of divine nature. You are a breed of God’s kind in Christ Jesus. You are not an ordinary human being. If you will function like God, you must understand that like God, you are a spirit (John4:24)

WHAT DO YOU DO TO FUNCTION AS GOD?

Learn and understand the nature of God- When that understanding sinks into you, you begin to function in the capacity. Until you understand the sprit you cannot be spiritual, it takes spirit to understand spirit; it takes God to understand God. To function as God you must be ready to learn God’s nature. Lack of knowledge will affect your manifestation of this nature. The beginning of supernatural life is understanding the God-nature in you. You are beyond what you think you are. The more you learn God, the more professional and better at it you become, you must learn if you want to understand God’s nature.

Matthew 11:29--Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

God is saying: ‘’Get yourself committed to me”. You have to learn your God’s kind of nature in order to function well. The problem of many is that they don’t like to learn, they prefer hullabaloo and gimmicks. For you to operate in your God-nature, you must be willing to learn. Your soul can never be rested until you begin to function as God.

Philippians 2:5--Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

Remove human mind and let the mind of God take over, it’s like changing the old engine of a car to a new one; that car will function like a new one. The mind of God will make you know what others ordinarily will not know. When you begin to function in your mind as God you have become God. The mid in Jesus Christ is the mind of God. When you have the mind of God, your faith will not rest on the wisdom of men but the power of God (1corinthians 2:5). It is those that are trained as God that will reign as God.

1 John 5:1, 4-- Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

Hebrews 12:2--Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Summary: : When you are troubled in the face of trouble it means you are not showing the God aspect of you. You need to relax and rest like Jesus did in that boat even in the midst of the storm.
