See you Sunday’s @ 10am – Jesus declares to the disciples, “Who do you say I am” Mark 8:29.
Language is one of the most powerful tools God has given man. With the power of the tongue we can uplift or tear down. With the same tongue we worship God but we may also put ourselves down. At times language can even become muddied and confusing.
To unlock the power of language we can look at how ancient man has tried to explain colors. Yes, a mystery, but profound. When and how did shades of yellow turn into orange? When and how did shades of green turn into blue. Ancient man, in fact, had no name for blue or orange and therefore blue and orange did not exist in their minds. A concept does not exist until one gives language to the concept. Language has deep meaning in defining one’s existence. Your eyes are more a projector than a camera!
We relate this to biblical concepts when we first ask the question, “Who is God?, Who is He?” By defining who He is, you will now be able to understand “Who you are.”
He is Almighty God. He is Abba. He is Salvation. He is the God who Heals. He is the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. He is Love Incarnate. And He calls you His beloved, His own!
