God made man to govern and rule
Man to govern creatures was made possible because man was made in the image of God. And that automatically made man the supreme being.
“The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.” (Psalms 115 verses 16 KJV)
Just as God created human beings with genes, which are the source and substance of life. It was designed that these genes will passed from parent to child. How one’s physical characteristic, behaviours, emotional reaction, and instincts and processing thoughts are determine by our genes. It is wise to know that whenever a man wants to give an identity to the next generation, all he does is to sow a seed into the woman, and with the help of the sex cell genes are transfer to this next generation. Adam is the first father of every human race in the physical.
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (James 1 verses 17 KJV)
You are a gift to the earth
As it is with the physical, so it is with the spiritual. We were first in existence in the spiritual before we appeared in the physical. We were first identified with God in spiritual before we identity with our physical father. The true identity of each individual is not determined by his physical appearance, it is determined by his alignment with God. The spiritual is superior to the physical. Man is first a spirit being. The physical being meant worthless without the spirit being. That is why James says,
“For as the body without the spirit is dead.” (James 2 verses 26A KJV)
Man in the physical is dead, but man in the spirit is alive. In the definition of the three dimensions of man, man is a spirit that has a soul and lives in a body. It is not the other way round as some people claimed to define man. You can’t give the right definition and true identity of man looking at the physical.
Man was made in charge of the physical, and God Almighty was in charge of the spiritual
Adam was the father of the human race. His genes were released into humanity. If someone is in father of physical (human) race, that means someone is the father of the spirit race. Man was made in charge of the physical, and God Almighty was in charge of the spiritual. Out of Himself being a spirit, He brought forth man. That made man not a reality of himself, but a reality of God. The true identity of man is discovered in God. Man should be seeking of his true identity in the spirit than we seek it in the flesh. The reality of everything made and yet to be made is God. King Solomon says,
“He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” (Ecclesiastes 3 verses 11 KJV)
God passed life to man
God been the Creator of man, when He passed on an identity, what did He passed on? He passed on live. But what identity did humanity inherit from Adam? Death was passed on in Adam’s seed instead of life. God gave him life to pass along, but he choice to obey Satan and disobeyed God which reverse the whole process up side down. Man was to live to eternity but that singular decision from Adam messed up the whole process. We will look deep into that as we proceed.
Before I conclude this very chapter there is need to know that the greatest challenge for men this day, is the suffering of identity crisis. People lack the nurturing influence of a true Father to give them identity. The true identity comes from God the Father. You can’t get your true identity to exercise full dominion in the absence of God Almighty.
“But as many as received ‘Jesus Christ’, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.” (John 1 verses 12)
Conclusion
God qualified you as your Father. Hallelujah! In Him you discover and live your true identity. It is only in Him you will have the power to fully enforce your dominion on earth.
