Pastor Jeremias Antonetty

We are looked upon as a good creation
One of the most important things to remember is that when God recreated our spirit he looked at us in the same way he looked at his first man creation, and that was Adam. He said it is good.

We are the crown of God's creation

God did not create any other in his own image. This new creation has God's divine nature in it in order that we might live the God kind of life.

First of all we were created to worship
When Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman he told her that the Father is looking for those who will worship in spirit and in truth.

What we see is a poor reflection of the true things in heaven
When God created Adam he gave the earth as a true pattern of the things, which are in heaven. Adam was able to understand what heaven was like because of the beauty that he had seen in the garden. He understood God's eternal power as the Godhead.

Rom 1:20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (KJV)

There was no affliction in the Garden of Eden
Mark 13:19
For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. (KJV)

God is creating a people for praise
God is creating a new people in order to show forth his praise upon the earth. The new. In the time of Jesus the Pharisees and most of the people of those days did not give God the praise that he was worthy of receiving.

Ps 102:18
This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD. (KJV) ( Bara) To qualify- to make- to cut down )


God creates by his Spirit
Ps 104:30
When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the earth. (NIV)

We see that through the Holy Spirit God recreated the earth in the book of Genesis and we see the same principle in the new creation with man. Through the glory of God we were recreated in the image of God for the glory of God. This creation can only take place when we receive the Spirit and divine nature of God in us.

Hosea 2:21
"It shall come to pass in that day that I will answer," says the LORD; "I will answer the heavens, and they shall answer the earth. (NKJ)

Gen 1:11
And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. (KJV)

The wells of Isaac
Gen 26:12-25
12 Then Isaac (sowed - HIT) in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.
13 And the man (waxed great-HE EXCELLED), and went (forward-HE PROSPERED),

and grew
1431 gadal (gaw-dal');
a primitive root; properly, to twist (in various senses, as in body, mind, estate or honor, also in pride): increase, lift up, magnify (-ifical), be much set by, nourish (up), pass, promote, proudly [spoken], tower.
until he became very great: SAME AS GREW

14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines

envied him
7065 qana' (kaw-naw');
a primitive root; to be (move to, provoke to) jealousy

15 For all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.
17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.

The wells of Abraham

19 And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
20 And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac's herdmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.
21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.
22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
23 And he went up from thence to Beersheba.
24 And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.
25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac's servants digged a well. (KJV)
