Timely Insights into God's Word from Khandielese Reyes

"BEFORE FORMED"

 “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.  And GOD blessed them, and GOD said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.  And GOD said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.  And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.  And GOD saw every thing that he made, and, behold, it was very good.  And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”  (Gen 1:26-31)

“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.”  (Gen 2:7)

The following is a message for the “Hungry”, for those who are “Spiritually Hungry”.  It is a message for those of you whose spirits cry out for oneness and intimacy with The LORD GOD, an intimacy that was once known inwardly by YOU.  The individual who’s spiritually seeking will be able to receive what is written in this message.  Otherwise, if you’re one who’s “spiritually” satisfied, this message to you will be as null and void until your spirit begins to seek.  This is a message for those whose desire for The Lord far supercedes their comprehension although you’ve sought to understand, the human mind is unable to comprehend the hunger.  Being unable to intellectually explain the depth as to the why of your thirst; your hunger; your longing; and your desire for the presence of Yashua (Jesus), for intimacy, oneness and fellowship with Him, you can only proclaim that inwardly it is intensely there and it’s as if you’re crying out for something you once had and desire to have once again.  There is a spiritual place where you desire to be.  This is a place of familiarity, a place your spirit keeps pressing towards while your flesh fights hard to hold you back from entering in.  You cannot brush aside the inward knowledge that you’ve been in this place before, and yet you cannot explain with the mind exactly when you where there, or why so much about the Son of God, Yashua and The Great “I AM” Abba Father, Yahweh, is SO familiar to you (spiritually).  Although your flesh has no memory, your spirit KNOWS for you were “CREATED BEFORE FORMED.”

Before man was known as a “Physical being”, he was known by GOD as a “Spiritual being” for the LORD GOD created him in this fashion.   “So GOD CREATED man, in His OWN image, in the image of GOD CREATED HE him; MALE and FEMALE CREATED He THEM.”    When the word “image” is spoken here, it is speaking of one’s “physical likeness”.  Not one’s “character”, but a “representation” of one thing from another and when something is created in the “image” of another thing, that thing that has been created then becomes a replica of the original.  The scriptures declare that GOD is a SPIRIT, and therefore being so, THIS is His image as he is NOT physical, but Spiritual.  Therefore, if man/woman were created in the IMAGE (the likeness, the representation) of GOD, it is safe to say that man/woman was created as a SPIRIT first having no physical body as yet, but able to function in the manner of which he was created.  But, then there’s more… for GOD SPOKE THE WORDS: “Let US make man in OUR IMAGE, after OUR LIKENESS.  Now, certainly he wasn’t speaking to the angels when he said these words as the angels are beings created BY him and are not created in HIS image.  This is the first indication mentioned in scripture of the Holy TRINITY being GOD The Father, GOD The Son, and GOD The Holy Spirit, and it is in the IMAGE OF THESE THREE man was “CREATED”.  Remember we speak NOT regarding character, but LIKENESS and REPRESENTATION for if indeed man was created having the “character” of these three, he would not have fallen into sin in the beginning as sin has no place in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit nor is it part of their character.  Therefore, man/woman was created in the image of God The Father, the image of God The Son, and the image of God The Holy Spirit as ONE image being the ORIGNAL and man being the REPLICA, a carbon copy.  Not GREATER than the original, nor more valuable than the original but created in the LIKENESS of the original.  

Now, according to scripture it has been established that the image of God IS Spirit, but what about the image of the Son, and the image of The Holy Spirit if man indeed was created in the likeness of all three?  Again, not to speak concerning “character” but concerning “likeness” and “representation”, the image of The Son in the creation of man is the “Glorified Body”.  Now, you may say this cannot be so as man was “FORMED” PHYSICALLY from the dust of the earth and Christ was NOT.  This is TRUE, but I speak NOT concerning the physical body as WE know it, for when man was “physically formed” it was desired of GOD that he (man) would live forever, having a physical body that was not destroyed by sickness, age, or sin.  But, because man himself through disobedience altered the course of the original plan, it took GOD HIMSELF to come down and put HIS Spirit in the physical body like that of which he originally formed, offer Himself as a living sacrifice for HIS creation, die, rise from the dead having the type of body that He originally formed for man which is glorified being forever exempt from sickness, death and decay, that man would now have opportunity to receive what was originally planned for him…..eternal life, but NOW it must be obtained THROUGH faith in The Son.  Man could not do it as he missed the opportunity when he fell into sin, thus it took GOD to do it for him that HIS WILL for man, would be fulfilled.   Now, the image of the Holy Spirit is Power and the “spirit” of man knows how to use this image wisely, but the “flesh” of man does not.  Therefore, while man remains in the flesh he cannot use this imagine to it’s FULL capacity WITHOUT the leading, guidance, instruction and help of the ORIGINAL!  The Holy Spirit himself has to do the work THROUGH man, for the flesh of man cannot be trusted while it remains “non-glorified” as it will always attempt to do the opposite of the will of GOD.

The spirit of man was created first and KNEW the LORD GOD and the things of God intimately.  Before the body was ever formed, the spirit of man was in intimate fellowship with Abba Father and somewhere tucked away in the spirit, is the memory of this blessed union.  This is why man will NEVER find true satisfaction in this life (as we know it by the flesh), nor in the things of this world for the spirit man knows that ULTIMATE SATISFACTION will come ONLY when he is joined back to the One who created him before forming him in his mothers womb.  Man will go through his earthly life with a inward hunger, and will consistently seek to fill this hunger through many ways but will FAIL!  His hunger will only be filled, when his spirit begins it’s search.  For the spirit of man KNOWS what it’s seeks, but the flesh of a man has no clue.  Therefore the spirit must continue it’s search passionately.  The more the spirit hungers to be filled, the more of HIMSELF The LORD GOD SHALL REVEAL.   What the spirit man once new, must now be learned over again while he lives out his earthly life.  When he has been removed from his earthly vessel, he will clearly see ALL things for then the man that was created in the image of God will be standing where he once stood, in the presence of GOD The Father,  God The Son, God The Holy Spirit, HIS Creator.  And he will then understand why the sound of worship to The Lord was so joyous to his ears while he lived out his earthly life.  For this was something he’d always done, when he was CREATED BEFORE FORMED.

“For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then FACE TO FACE:   Now I know IN PART; but then shall I KNOW even as ALSO I AM KNOWN.”  (1^st Cor 13:12)

“BEFORE I FORMED thee in the belly I KNEW THEE…….” (Jer 1:5) 

I Love you all so very much.  Have a blessed week in the Lord and remember:  Whatever we do, do ALL for the GLORY of GOD, who ALONE is worthy of the GLORY and the PRAISE!

The Lord be with you this day and always!  Shalom Uvracha (Peace and Blessings)
