Formed in the workmanship of Jesus to do His works!

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10

God looked at humanity and knew a miracle was required to make people like Himself. 

Jesus, the Son of God, was perfect and formed in the image and character of God.

God decided Jesus would be a sacrifice for all mankind. God sent Jesus into the world to demonstrate the glory and power of God. 

God told Jesus he would die on a cross and be a sacrifice for all sin. 

The redeeming work of Jesus begins with a man or woman making a decision for Jesus. This creates the gift of salvation for a new believer.

The death of Jesus created a way for a human being to be forgiven for all their sins and restored to God. The blood of Jesus cleanses a believer of all sin and offers forgiveness. The believer can face Jesus blameless of any shame or condemnation.

The believer is sealed with the Holy Spirit. He is the life of Jesus and transforms the believer into the character of God. 

The workmanship creates the ability for a believer to walk in and do the works of Jesus. 

The starting point is to be a powerful light for Jesus for all those in your life.

Jesus instructs a believer to pray vigilantly, seek the will of God, and listen for the voice of Jesus.

He must read the Bible consistently and learn to live by spiritual principles.

The believer is to submit to the authority of the Holy Spirit and walk in oneness with Jesus.

The works are orchestrated by the Holy Spirit. He is like a wind and will do as He pleases. The believer cannot tell where the wind is coming from or where the wind is going. 

This is the life of a believer born of the Spirit and truth.

There is no striving or intellectual involvement in doing the works of Jesus. 

The Holy Spirit anoints and equips the believer with the gifts of the Spirit and sends him out into a ministry ordained by God.
