The Breath Of Life



In The Beginning, God Created the Heavens and the Earth.

Then God said, “Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the Earth across The Face of The Firmament of The Heavens.”  So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind.  And God saw that it was Good.  And God Blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the Earth.”  Then God said, “Let the Earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the Earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so.  And God made the beast of the Earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the Earth according to its kind.  And God saw that it was Good.

Then God Almighty said, “Let Us make Man (Mankind), in Our Image, according to Our Likeness; let Them (Mankind) have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the Earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the Earth.”  So God Almighty Created Man (Mankind), in His Own Image; in The Image of God Almighty, He Created Him (Mankind); Male and Female He Created Them (Mankind). Then God Blessed Them (Mankind), and God said to Them (Mankind), “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the Earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the Earth.”

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 Being.

Now, YOU may have noticed that God Almighty already existed before The Creation of the Heavens and the Earth.  Also, YOU may have noticed, that God Almighty ONLY Breathed, The Breath of Life, into Man (Mankind).  The Breath of Life is Our Soul/Spirit, every human being has a Soul/Spirit, in other words, ONLY Mankind! 

So, what does having a Soul/Spirit, mean to each of Us?  Well, Our Soul/Spirit lives Forever, for Eternity, meaning yes, it has a beginning, Our Birth, but has no actual end.  Our Mortal Bodies however, have a finite amount of time, and during this brief time, We each have a choice to make, where do We each wish to spend Our time (Eternity), after Our Mortal Bodies cease to function?  Do We wish to spend it, in God’s Immediate Presence, with Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, God’s Holy Angels, and The Children of God Almighty OR AWAY from God’s Immediate Presence?  AWAY from God’s Immediate Presence, meaning in a place created for Satan and his followers (NOT Man), where there shall be endless weeping and gnashing of teeth, The Lake of Fire and Brimstone.

The way The Holy Spirit has revealed this to me, God Almighty created Us, in His Image, with the pure intent and purpose, of Us being in His Presence, to walk with Us, and Us to walk with Him. However, sin got in between Us and God Almighty, denying Our True Purpose.  God Almighty being ever so Loving and Merciful, knew He would have to create a possibility, for Us to be able to return, to fulfill Our True Purpose, to walk with Him.  So, The Word took human form, and at His Birth, was given The Name Above All names, Jesus!  Jesus Christ was born, to give His Life, upon The Cross, paying Our sin debt, then God Almighty Raised Jesus Christ, from the grave, Alive, defeating death itself.  So, We could once again have the opportunity, to walk with God Almighty, for Eternity!  By God’s Love and Mercy, by God’s Amazing Saving Grace, God gave Us, His Free Gift of Salvation.  This is a gift of God Almighty, NOT by any works (meaning, it’s nothing We can earn or purchase), We must receive this gift.  In order to receive this gift, We must acknowledge God’s Amazing Saving Grace (i.e. who Jesus Christ is, how He lived, what He taught, why He had to die, that God Almighty raised Him from the grave, Alive, what the totality of this means), and We must accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation.  By accepting God’s Free Gift of Salvation, We welcome Our Lord Jesus Christ, to take control of Our lives, but also to come and abide within Us, through The Holy Spirit.

So, YOU were created by God Almighty, in God Almighty’s Image, and God Almighty Breathed The Breath of Life, into YOUR NOSTRILS, and YOU became a Living Being, that’s profound, don’t YOU think?  Now, why would God Almighty go through all this, if He did NOT care about YOU?  Why would Our Lord Jesus Christ, take upon Himself, all the sin YOU will ever commit (during your entire Lifetime), if He did NOT care about YOU?  And Jesus would willingly do it all over again, if need be!  This is how much, God Almighty, Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit, care about YOU, how much They LOVE YOU, how much They want YOU, to walk with Them, for Eternity!

God Almighty created YOU, so He could have a personal relationship with YOU, right now, Today!  Our Lord Jesus Christ died for YOU, so He could also have a personal relationship with YOU, through The Holy Spirit, right now, Today!

The question for YOU is, what are YOU going to do with this knowledge?  Are YOU going to acknowledge God Almighty, Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit?  Are YOU willing to acknowledge God’s Amazing Saving Grace and willingly accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation?  Are YOU willing to give control of Your Life, over to Jesus Christ, and serve God Almighty, for Eternity?  In other words, are YOU willing to thank God Almighty, for The Breath of Life, He Breathed into YOUR NOSTRILS, by giving control of Your Life, to Jesus Christ, right now, Today?
