Image & Identity Restored

Mar 1, 2026    Rev. Kevin C. Benton

This powerful message calls us back to our original design, reminding us that we were created in the image of God Himself. Genesis 1:26-27 becomes our foundation as we explore what it truly means to bear the image of our Creator. The transformation we seek isn't about becoming something new, but rather being restored to what we were always meant to be. Like a computer file corrupted by a virus, many of us have allowed the enemy to distort our true identity in Christ. The message challenges us to understand that deliverance isn't a one-time event but a daily walk, requiring our active participation. We're presented with the compelling image of a man holding a check for ten thousand dollars but refusing to cash it because he didn't believe he was worthy. How many of us are walking around with the signed check of Calvary in our pockets, yet failing to cash in on the transformation God has made available? The call is clear: we must stop living on temporary relief and allow God to perform spiritual surgery that brings complete healing. This isn't about self-help or positive thinking; it's about returning to the manufacturer's manual, the Word of God, and allowing it to reshape our identity from glory to glory.
