The Genesis Perspective: God's Plan for Mankind

By Lilene K Caldwell

Does it seem you have lost your passion as a believer in Christ? Do you desire to grow and mature but don't know where to begin. Are there some things about God's plan for mankind which you just don't understand? Or perhaps you've been with a local body of believers whom you love, but it seems that you have stopped growing in your faith.The Genesis Perspective is the first in a series of resources designed to encourage maturity in the body of Christ. It provides an in-depth look at the gospel message and God's plan for mankind while allowing you to consider what God would have you to do in light of His desires. It was conceived as a way to celebrate the "40 Days of Christ," a commemoration of the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior. Following the resurrection, Jesus Christ remained on earth another 40 days and he talked to them about the Kingdom of God (Acts 1:3 NLT). Those who complete the 40 days devotional journal should begin to close gaps in their understanding, have a deeper appreciation for the plight of man and experience a deeper love for God."The Genesis Perspective" 40 Day devotional shares a comprehensive review of the gospel message by outlining God's original plan for mankind and focusing on how Jesus Christ fulfills this plan. It is an opportunity for believers to take their time and consider the foundational principles of the gospel message and the implications it has in daily living. The daily devotional is best used in conjunction with other believers as they come together and discuss life in view of God's desires. Believers commit to setting aside time each day for 40 days to consider their lives and how it relates to God's plan. Then once a week, the group comes together to help one another as they discuss how to renew the image of God in each of their respective lives. Through this series each believer will be challenged to develop a close personal relationship with God. This relationship will be characterized by ongoing devotion to prayer, meditation, the study of God's Word, and a diligent commitment to living a life that is pleasing to God. The believer will be challenged to believe God rather than the lies of Satan. Each person will be challenged to rely upon the goodness of Christ instead of trying to become good themselves. They will be challenged to rely upon the power of the Holy Spirit to overcome and endure problems. They will count on the faithfulness of God to sanctify them as they submit their will to God.
