HOW TO BE UTRA-PRODUCTIVE

11 THINGS ULTRA-PRODUCTIVE PEOPLE DO DIFFERENTLY
When it comes to productivity, we all face the same challenge—there are only 24 hours in a day.

Yet some people seem to have twice the time; they have an uncanny ability to get things done. Even when juggling multiple projects, they reach their goals without fail.

Time is really the only capital that any human being has, and the only thing he can’t afford to lose. —Thomas Edison
We all want to get more out of life. There's arguably no better way to accomplish this than by finding ways to do more with the precious time you've been given.

It feels incredible when you leave the office after an ultra-productive day. It's a workplace high that's hard to beat.

With the right approach, you can make this happen every day.

You don’t need to work longer or push yourself harder—you just need to work smarter.

Ultra-productive people know this. As they move through their days they rely on productivity hacks that make them far more efficient. They squeeze every drop out of every hour without expending any extra effort.

The best thing about these hacks is they're easy to implement. So easy that you can begin using them today.

Give them a read, give them a whirl, and watch your productivity soar.

1. They Never Touch Things Twice

Productive people never put anything in a holding pattern, because touching things twice is a huge time-waster. Don’t save an email or a phone call to deal with later. As soon as something gets your attention you should act on it, delegate it or delete it.

2. They Get Ready for Tomorrow Before They Leave the Office

Productive people end each day by preparing for the next. This practice accomplishes two things: it helps you solidify what you’ve accomplished today, and it ensures you’ll have a productive tomorrow. It only takes a few minutes and it’s a great way to end your workday.

For every minute spent organizing, an hour is earned. —Benjamin Franklin

3. They have procrastination as enemy to success "They Eat Frogs"

“Eating a frog” is the best antidote for procrastination, and ultra-productive people start each morning with this tasty treat. In other words, they do the least appetizing, most dreaded item on their to-do list before they do anything else. After that, they’re freed up to tackle the stuff that excites and inspires them.

4.  They Fight The Tyranny Of The Urgent

The tyranny of the urgent refers to the tendency of little things that have to be done right now to get in the way of what really matters. This creates a huge problem as urgent actions often have little impact.

If you succumb to the tyranny of the urgent, you can find yourself going days, or even weeks, without touching the important stuff. Productive people are good at spotting when putting out fires is getting in the way of their performance, and they’re willing to ignore or delegate the things that get in the way of real forward momentum.

Time is what we want most, but what we use worst. —William Penn
5. They Stick to the Schedule During Meetings

Meetings are the biggest time waster there is. Ultra-productive people know that a meeting will drag on forever if they let it, so they inform everyone at the onset that they’ll stick to the intended schedule. This sets a limit that motivates everyone to be more focused and efficient.

The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot. —Michael Altshuler
6. They Say No

No is a powerful word that ultra-productive people are not afraid to wield. When it’s time to say no, they avoid phrases such as I don’t think I can or I’m not certain. Saying no to a new commitment honors your existing commitments and gives you the opportunity to successfully fulfill them.

Research conducted at the University of California in San Francisco shows that the more difficulty that you have saying no, the more likely you are to experience stress, burnout, and even depression. Learn to use no, and it will lift your mood, as well as your productivity.

7. They Only Check E-mail At Designated Times

Ultra-productive people don’t allow e-mail to be a constant interruption. In addition to checking e-mail on a schedule, they take advantage of features that prioritize messages by sender. They set alerts for their most important vendors and their best customers, and they save the rest until they reach a stopping point. Some people even set up an autoresponder that lets senders know when they’ll be checking their e-mail again.

8. They Don’t Multitask

Ultra-productive people know that multitasking is a real productivity killer. Research conducted at Stanford University confirms that multitasking is less productive than doing a single thing at a time. The researchers found that people who are regularly bombarded with several streams of electronic information cannot pay attention, recall information or switch from one job to another as well as those who complete one task at a time.

But what if some people have a special gift for multitasking? The Stanford researchers compared groups of people based on their tendency to multitask and their belief that it helps their performance. They found that heavy multitaskers—those who multitask a lot and feel that it boosts their performance—were actually worse at multitasking than those who like to do a single thing at a time. The frequent multitaskers performed worse because they had more trouble organizing their thoughts and filtering out irrelevant information, and they were slower at switching from one task to another. Ouch.

Multitasking reduces your efficiency and performance because your brain can only focus on one thing at a time. When you try to do two things at once, your brain lacks the capacity to perform both tasks successfully.

9. They Go off The Grid

Don’t be afraid to go off grid when you need to. Give one trusted person a number to call in case of emergency, and let that person be your filter. Everything has to go through them, and anything they don’t clear has to wait. This strategy is a bulletproof way to complete high-priority projects.

One man gets only a week’s value out of a year while another man gets a full year’s value out of a week. —Charles Richards

10. They Delegate

Ultra-productive people accept the fact that they’re not the only smart, talented person in their organization. They trust people to do their jobs so that they can focus on their own.

11. They Put Technology to Work for Them

Technology catches a lot of flak for being a distraction, but it can also help you focus. Ultra-productive people put technology to work for them. Beyond setting up filters in their e-mail accounts so that messages are sorted and prioritized as they come in, they use apps like IFTTT, which sets up contingencies on your smart phone and alerts you when something important happens. This way, when your stock hits a certain price or you have an email from your best customer, you’ll know it. There’s no need to be constantly checking your phone for status updates.

Bringing It All Together

We’re all searching for ways to be more efficient and productive. I hope these strategies help you to find that extra edge.

What productivity hacks do you rely on? Please share your thoughts in the comments section below as I learn just as much from you as you do from me.

CREATIVE WEALTH [PART 2]

CREATIVE WEALTH [PART 2]

CHARACTERISTICS OF CREATIVE PEOPLE.

Some of the characteristics that creative people will display are a willingness to challenge assumptions, keep searching after they have their first idea, take risks, are not afraid to make mistakes, are naturally inquisitive, have a strong imagination, think visually, take the initiative, are adaptable, see patterns of events.

THE GAME CHANGERS

A survey by the UK consultancy eg.1, identifies a group of business people as game changers. They display qualities such as strategic thinking, ambition and risk taking and can change organisations. They say it doesn’t matter where in the business game changers work, it is their ability to “envision a different game” and “imagine a totally different future “.

 They say these people are important not only for the differences they make directly in the business, but because their attitude will attract other talented people to work at the company, a benefit in the “war for talent “.
They suggest leaders have to keep these people by “giving them oxygen for their ideas “. “They love an environment that allows them to explore their talent and to create things” according to Professor Cary Cooper, an organisational psychologist.

It is hard to spot this type of person at interview, and they are more likely to be noticed once employed. Professor Cooper says that if 5 or 10 % of a company’s employees are game changers, that would be fantastic. The role of the company leader is to identify these people and give them the space to explore their ideas without fear of failure.

CAN YOU LEARN TO THINK CREATIVELY?

Yes, you can be coached to be more creative. There are now Creative Studies courses available at universities. Gerard Puccio is Chair of Creativity at Buffalo State College in New York.

Puccio teaches that there are four stages in the creative process, clarifying, ideating, developing and implementing.

a. Clarifying. Make sure you ask the right question

b. Ideating. Explore as many solutions as possible

c. Developing and implementing. Checking the idea is practical and convincing.

d. Another theory is that these are the four creative thinking skills;-

e. Fluency. Suggesting lots of ideas

f. Flexibility. Having a variety of different ideas

g. Elaboration. Adding detail, viewpoints and perspectives

h. Originality. The novelty of the ideas

Research has shown that people in a relaxed, mellow mood are more creative, and that people lying down are more creative than standing up. Creative thinking requires a relaxed, open approach.

CREATIVE TECHNIQUES

Almost all of the tools used in business work best if the participants are able to adopt a relaxed approach, suspend judgement, are not afraid to suggest ideas which are not thought through and may be a little “eccentric “. They should feel able to make suggestions they would not normally make in a work environment, as they may be unworkable. In short they can think the unthinkable, and say the unsayable.

For people who are used to being expected to behave responsibly and logically, this takes a certain attitude and self-confidence. They have to let their minds be less ordered and structured.

TECHNIQUES TO BEING MORE CREATIVE

1. Brainstorming, doodling and mind mapping on a large piece of paper without evaluating. Just write, draw or doodle. It is thought that engaging the right side of the brain helps creative thinking.

2. Deliberately change your routine, change your route to work ,do things in a different order watch or listen to new programmes, different music
Walk, and let your mind wander, thinking loosely, not critically.

3. List as many answers to the problem as you can
Once you have a list, go through them to see if they would work

4. Jot down ideas as they come to you. Keep paper and pencil by your bed as ideas often occur during the night.

CREATIVE WEALTH [OUT OF THE BOX EXPERIENCE]

        CREATIVE WEALTH
                                            Creative Thinking in Business
Humans automatically relate new things that happen with something within our experience. We are biologically primed to learn from past events .This is usually helpful to us as it lets us draw on our background and experience, and build on what we have previously learned.

We are naturally lazy thinkers and so we tend to think in clichés or established patterns. But this restricts our ability to think creatively and we have to actually force ourselves to think “outside the box“
Creative thinking then, is looking at things from a different perspective from the obvious one, developing new ideas, asking different questions, restating the question, broadening the issues. It is truly a state of mind.

What is creative thinking?

Creative thinking is the ability to come up with a new and different perspective –breaking down the topic and restructuring it to gain new insights, by organising our thoughts differently. There are many definitions of creativity, ranging from a process of identifying gaps in knowledge, searching for solutions and formulating hypotheses, the personal discovery process, problem solving, to escape from assumptions.

It can be seen as the ability to think beyond the obvious and avoid the pitfalls of making assumptions, thinking new and different thoughts, producing new ideas. Perhaps a good definition is seeing the same thing everyone else sees, but interpreting opportunities differently, putting a different spin on things, thinking “outside the box.”

Creative thinking can lead to the invention of a new product or service, or process. Or it may lead to the combination of existing things in a new, different way. In business this can lead to new products or new processes that can perhaps reduce costs. It can help a business stand out from the crowd by doing something different from its competitors, and allow them to gain a competitive edge.

An accelerating pace of technological change means that many business problems we encounter now have no precedent. Doing things the way we have always done them is no longer going to be effective. Creative thinking is now accepted as important to business success, and to anyone in a leadership role.

What business tools are there?

There are some business tools that can help. Brainstorming is probably the best known and there is also lateral thinking. Blue sky thinking is also commonly used in business as is the 6 Thinking Hats.

Great ideas do not usually arise by chance, you need to create the “head space “for them, think about the problem, allow your brain to do its work. To do this creatively you need to release yourself from the normal constraints your brain has to work under, the “rules”, mind-sets, and preconceptions we have set for ourselves.

You need to forget conformity. Don’t check that your ideas conform to your experience of what works. Explore different approaches, avoid rigid thinking. Logical thoughts, existing ideas, accepted mores, can all limit your creativity. Let your imagination loose!

Our instinct when faced with a problem is to consider solutions that have worked for similar problems, and adapt them. But creative thinking works best when people look at the problem from a new perspective, several or even many perspectives, consider unconventional ideas, and search for new and different ways to address the problem.

Restructure the problem by viewing it from different perspectives and you gain a different view of the problem. Generating associations between unrelated things, and making unexpected connections can make you think differently.

OUT OF THE BOX

                               WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Hello friend, I am most delighted to welcome you to 2017. It's another year; of 365days, 525600hrs. ,31536000sec., there is no reason on earth to why you should fail, posterity will not forgive you if you do! Do you know why? It's because you have so much of time at your disposal to make and create anything you want, oh yes! I mean anything. What then should you do to ensure your flight to success and greatness?
                           MATERIALS FOR SUCCESS
DECISION 
The right of a man to life, is his ability to make choice. I call it the; "HUMAN RIGHT LAW" once this is taken from a man, he or she seizes to be him or herself  only to become someone else particularly the one in controll at that moment. Therefore your choices are spiritual to your purpose and destiny, this implies that every time you make a choice, you create a future! The consequences of your choices are the results of what happens to you. Largely! This defines what you receive and practically what you become. Making a bad choice is creating a bad future; whatever your choices are you become. Your choices are your decisions. Don't trade your future!

PERCEPTION
This defines and redefines what you see and believe. Micheal Angelo once said "I see an angel in the stone" it does not matter what people see and choose to believe, it makes no impute to your creation, but what matters is what you see and believe. If you choose to see things differently, you will have them differently. However! your perception is your conception. One thing you've got to understand is the model called LIFE. Things will only respond to you on the bases of what you see.

FOCUSE
This is capacity building; to become what you have in your mind, you must as a matter of fact develop into it! You are EMPOWERED as well as MOTIVATED to pursuing your desired goals and targets consequently of your sight in focuse. Your entire system is built to function in the capacity of you development per your focuse. What's power by the way? The ability to do work, right? If power is the ability, focuse is the generator of that ability. How do you aquire the momentum for focuse?
This question simply underscores one fact and it's that the momentum for focuse can either be increased or degreased. Whatever affects your mind positively or negatively can either increase or degrease the momentum of your focuse. So watch it! SUCCESS AND FAILURE IS A CHOICE.

CREATION AND PURPOSE

THE CONCEPT OF CREATION 

Genesis 1:1 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The beginning began with God, meaning the beginning did not begin until God began, it also mean that the beginning had no structure as well as order of its own, everything the beginning had was from its source,God! God gave substance and meaning to the beginning, everything God wanted in the beginning was what the beginning began with,the beginning  began when God had finished, the beginning though was the beginning, was not actually the  beginning, because God did not start with the beginning, He had finished before what began,began, so the beginning was not a mark of what started but a mark of what had finished. Until God finished,the beginning, was not permitted to begin, so if the beginning had finished before it began, what then is the beginning? Jesus speaking,he said I am the beginning and the end"  this implies that the beginning is a person, and what ever that person is, was what the beginning was, so the beginning is both the CREATOR and the  CREATURE , this is because everything the beginning began with was created by the creator.

John 1:1-3 (KJV)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

two things are behind the WORD"  the VOICE and the MAN; but we understand the formation of words, every word started out as a THOUGHT,a WORD and then it becomes an ACTION. Whatever the THOUGHT was, was the WORD and whatever the WORD was,was the ACTION. These are the dimension of everything created, it's like the spirit, the soul and the body, it's called LIFE'S TRINITY. Jesus speaking again said my sheep hears my voice and the voice of another they will not follow" this underscores familiarity born out of the relationship the Shepherd has with the sheep, this statement by Jesus separates the VOICE from the WORD, what it means is that you might know his word but might not know his voice. His word may have created the world but His voice is for LEADERSHIP.

Romans 8:14 (KJV)
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

How do you separate the word of God from the word of the devil?  It's by His voice, and that's the place of the HOLY SPIRIT.
There are four kind of voices;

(1) the voice of God.

(2) the voice of man.

(3) the voice of the devil.

(4) your voice.

We all hear the four voices one time or the other or sometimes, together, but to attain greatness in God, We should be able to distinguish the voice of God from the others.

Luke 4:1-4 (KJV)
And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, [2] Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. [3] And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. [4] And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Jesus used the word of God as an array to distinguish between the voice of God and the voice of the devil by the Holy Ghost.

The first introduction we have about God is that He created.

Genesis 1:1 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

this means that God was kin at how He was introduced, He would rather want to be perceived well, as being responsible, your action introduce the integrity of your person, the word introduction, is a social term, that implies courtesy, it means you are formal or being formal, its an attribute that thrives success in business, so the "hallmark of responsibility is creativity" responsibility cannot be recognize by any other means, except by creativity, God could create because He is creative, that also means skillful, God was very skillful and His skillfulness earned Him, the Creator,everything He made, He was/is.

John 1:1-3 (KJV)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Genesis 1:1-2 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [2] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Between verses 1and 2, a lot of things happened that led to the distruction  of  the first world God created, which was why verse two was chaotic, in a state of abysmal, at this stage we are introduced to another aspect of God. " ...and the Spirit of God moved"  this implies that God(Spirit of God) is a moving God, not static,not old fashion, developing,willing to increase and build His capacity, how does one move? (by his leg,car,plane,ship,train etc) this also mean that God is willing to adapt to changes. What was He doing? Inspection, survey,research, after the problem that challenged His integrity, He took up an assignment as to why what happened,happened! He took back the responsibility of His world, He decided to recreate what was destroyed, stating emphatically that He is in control, it was a challenge to His person,authority and position, and the only way to be quit Himself of His Might, He recreated! His world was taken but not His skills, and that was the material for His recreation.
"...and God said" the third introduction about God is that He spoke!  "...let there be light" God wanted a world, He created it! everything God wanted He created,creativity is a faculty of the mind,empowered by the heart and demonstrated by the hands. Everything God spoke happened the way the word said it, the moment God said let there be light, the light happiered that same instance,

Genesis 1:1-2 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [2] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Potentials of the word of God;

(1) quick
(2) powerful
(3) sharper

The word is quick;

meaning the word's got speed. What this implies is that once in the word it quickens you by tremendous speed towards your goals and targets, before long you see your self in great achievement of purpose and destiny.

Hab. 2:2 " And the Lord answered me, and said, write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it"

Can you see how Gods word injects speed into the life of a man? You cant be committed to Gods word and not be quick to achievement, it's like what happened when the prophet of God overtook the king who supposedly was on horses, it's amazing what God can do through his word,get in the word today and you will see the miracles and wonders of the word, oh i love the word quicken, it means , back to life, refreshed and vitalised

Romans 8:11 (KJV)
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Your greatest connection to life's success is Gods word.

The word is powerful;

meaning it equips and empowers,it also means fortification. So the word of God is an armoury of defence, it puts you on edge above mediocrity, its stunning to discover the dynamics of God's word, its simply a revolution against mediocrity, a slap against poverty,nothing equals the word in its creativity. Amazingly the infinity God has for and to his word is simply impeccable, God is committed to his word for eternity, to see the acts of God you must know the words of God, God does nothing without his word, if He has not said it He has not done it, the truth is that God cannot go beyond is word, anything that gets God by his word has gotten God by his might " for my word will not return to me void for it MUST accomplish the purpose for why it's sent"  God holds is person to his word.

Gal. 6:7
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked..."

can you hear the tune of that? The word of God is God's suvrinty.

The word is sharper;

this implies that the word is descernning, descisive and for judgement, it also means the wisdom of God, every thing bows to its verdict, thats because of its power.

Rom.1:16.
"For  i am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth..."

how does God make known his salvation? Its by its word. there are three qualities of Gods word;

(1) Capacity
(2) Character
(3) Destination

The Capacity of Gods word is Its consistency called GRACE, grace is a product of Gods word, everywhere you find grace you see FAVOR, favor is the proof of grace,it announces grace. The word produce grace,grace produce favor,favor is attractive because of grace.

The Character of Gods word is (the spirit of) Excellence and Faith; this duo are both characters of the Spirit, you are distinguish by excellence and faith.

Romans 10:17 (KJV)
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

notice the voice of God is the criteria for faith, you fall in love consciously, i.e, you make deliberate attempt to build your faith and grow in excellence, under the old covenant we are employed to Fear God, and it's stated in The scriptures that

"the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom"

well! Thats under the old covenant, under the new covenant we are rather employed to LOVE God, and I can state empirically that, the Love of God is the end of and to wisdom, so when you fall in love with Gods word, it produces Faith and  Excellence in you for exploit.

" they that do know their God shall be strong and do exploit"

The destination of Gods word is the glory of God, Gods word takes you to Gods glory which is the purpose of the word, to glorify God. We are made for Gods glory, when we begin to function in our place of assignment and do the things we are called to doing by design, what we do is give glory to God, this is entertainment for God,that's how He is pleasured, that's why purpose is glory to God because it's designed to answer to destiny, when we give glory to God we magnify Him for who and what He is .
The word of God is Gods power, the muscles of a man speaks a lot about his strength.

Romans 1:16 (KJV)
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

How do we know that God is strong? It's by his muscles, God cannot go beyond His word, if God has not said it He has not done it, He his obliged to his word, the Spirit of God goes everywhere the word is

"...not one word will lack her mate"

"...though the grass fades and the
plants withereds not one word will fall to the ground"

"the heavens and earth will pass away but my word abideth forever"

the word of God is Gods sovereignty as well as His integrity, you cannot see the acts of God if you don't know the words of God, if God cannot say it, He cannot do it, the word of God preceed the acts of God, the way God took back the responsibility of His world after inspection was His word, don't just rush up to doing things, business, carrier, marriage etc. first carry out inspection,survey,  Be trained. Your word is synanimouse with your world. God knew exactly what He wanted,He had a mental Picture of it, which was why after creating (calling what He wanted to be) He would approve,

Genesis 1:4 (KJV)
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

As if to mean that, He would go and look at what He had created to know if it looks like what He had in mind, if not, am sure God would destroy,like the vision He showed to Jeremiah about the potter and the clay where the clay went out of design, what the potter did was to destroy it and build another, so like God, we are,if God created His world by His word, it means we owe our world our word, again notice that it was everything that God wanted, He created, He wanted a house for Himself called Heaven, He created it, so like God whatever you want you should Create,

"...the just shall leave by his faith"

what is your faith?

"... Work out your salvation with fear and trembling"

as a matter of fact, there are two types of salvation in the scriptures;

(1) Salvation for new birth. The sacrifices for this salvation is Jesus's death on the cross.

(2) Salvation for wealth and prosperity. The sacrifices for this is paid by you.

3 John 1:2 (KJV)
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

This is only a wish, " faith without works is death" this means that faith is useless without works,faith belong to the spirit realm while works to the realm of matter(natural realm) putting both together connects the heavens and the earth, it's your responsibility to leave and stay wealthy and prosperous,God is not responsible for you, He is only committed to you and the you He is committed to, is His word in you, God does not do anything until He is committed to and the only way to get Gods committed is by His word. God does not reveal His secretes until He can trust you, the reason is because secretes are not told to strangers but to friends, and trust is built per time. Can God trust you with His word? I don't believe God is still working, I strongly believe that God is in His rest.

Genesis 2:2 (KJV)
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

Everything that God needed to do He has done and finished. Jesus, scripture says was slain before the foundation of the world, so what this implies is that Jesus didn't die 2000+ years ago, He actually died before the world began, now if Gods word must be believed, it goes to mean that everything about life and creature was finished before it began, bring this into perspective, and you will see the awesome truth of God word and it will buckle your faith, so everything I want I have, its is not about to be giving its given already, it will change you paradyme.

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

the  child of God leaves in a realm where the future is more real than the passed, "... By His strips we were healed" listen carefully to the revelation of Peter, were, pass terns, meaning it's been settled for you in the passed, listen, what you are in pursuit of is in the passed, it has been yours all the while, the problem is that you did't know, but now, you have known, what do you do? Go and get it, it's all yours for keeps! The cars, money, house etc.

THE FORMS OF GOD

There two categories to this;
(1) The Image.
(2) The Likeness.

Genesis 1:26 (KJV)
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

THE IMAGE.
Man was born out of a discision,  God did not make man until He had finished every other thing he needed to do. Look at the time, energy and experty. Invested in creating the world, everything God created He spoke into being, but when it got to man, He used His hands, i mean, all of himself, you would notice that the creation of man was the last thing He did before He took in to rest,hmmmm!  What is God saying? This simply sets an oder for life, but unfutunately, that Oder is not given precedence by man, what I need you to see here is that man is not made for the enviroment  but that the enviroment is made for man, in any situation where the reverse is the case, it unequivocally mean that something is wrong. God had a picture of what He wanted, which was why He made man as a crown to all that He had made. Man therefore is the hallmark to creation. God spent time in fixing the world because He had man in mind, man is the subject of creation, what this means is that creation in itself is a gift to man.

Matthew 6:33 (KJV)
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Man is made for the kingdom. This scripture is a reminder of the Oder of creation, that man is not made for the enviroment . Man is not made to service the enviroment but the enviroment is made to service man, what we have today is rather unfortunate, it will amazing you to know that majority of the people who go to work, go to work because of money, is that not the foundation of corruption today? The reason why people will want to compromise other people's rights for the goal of money. But if you understand the Oder of creation you will know that man is a crown to life. You are made for fellowship, your pursuit should be God and not money or things. That's why Matthews says; all this things shall be added unto you, it should come as a gift and not a reward. A gift is a gift because it's simply a gift, you don't have to work for. This does not in any way promote idleness, but understanding the primary reason behind your creation, you are made for the kingdom, and the kingdom is about God, that's where your investment should be. Once this is your focus and pursuit, the idea here is that,  you become a magnet, that's  why it says; " shall be added unto you" the picture that God had in His mind is that, you become attractive, things, in their natural courses begins to navigate to you, you become the centre or the earth, now! this is the Oder of creation.
Made in His image, simply means we image God, if one is described to image is father or mother, it means, that individual looks exactly like his father or mother, what that also imply is that, ones the individual is seen the other person is seen, it brings to mind the issue of identical twins, it can thus mean that we are twin with God, because in this light , everything that makes God, God,( makes you, you!) makes us who we are. It tells me that God wanted to make a copy of himself, and in making a copy of himself He made us, we look exactly like God! When you look at a mirror, what do you see? a reflection of yourself! It tells me that God wanted to look at Himself in the mirror to see His reflection, and in doing that, He made us. It's a two way thing, when God looks at us He sees Himself, and when we look at God we see ourselves.

THE LIKENESS.

Genesis 1:26 (KJV)
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

"...after our likeness"  you are made in His image but after His likeness! Hmmmm! The word "after" is not passive but active, its an adjective that suggest something you pursue, what this imply is that the likeness of God is your responsibility, you will need to pursue it, meaning you will have to make it your target as well as your focus. Yes you look like God, but can you take that to the bank? It's not enough to look like him! To make His likeness a target you must know what it is, His likeness talks about His capacity, things He can do,

" with God all things are possible"

That's what He can do, Possibilities!  Paul speaking he said;

" I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me"

Can that be your testimony?

" They that do know their God shall be strong and do exploit"

The dimension of the exploit you do is a variant of your revelation about God and that goes to proof your strength with God, Jesus asking His disciple who they think he is;

Matthew 16:15-18 (KJV)
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? [16] And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. [17] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. [18] And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Jacob's name was change to Isreal , because he had prevailed with God and that earned him a place with men, what's your position with God? Your stands with God translates into your position with men, if you don't have a place with God you don't have a place with men.You are made in His image, but not made in His likeness, but after his likeness, that is his likeness is you responsibility, you will have to go after it, pursue it, made in is image, once made,it create a natural pull in you to God, to want to act like him; but before you get to act like Him you have to know like Him.

CREATION AND PURPOSE

THE CONCEPT OF CREATION 

Genesis 1:1 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The beginning began with God, meaning the beginning did not begin until God began, it also mean that the beginning had no structure as well as order of its own, everything the beginning had was from its source,God! God gave substance and meaning to the beginning, everything God wanted in the beginning was what the beginning began with,the beginning  began when God had finished, the beginning though was the beginning, was not actually the  beginning, because God did not start with the beginning, He had finished before what began,began, so the beginning was not a mark of what started but a mark of what had finished. Until God finished,the beginning, was not permitted to begin, so if the beginning had finished before it began, what then is the beginning? Jesus speaking,he said I am the beginning and the end"  this implies that the beginning is a person, and what ever that person is, was what the beginning was, so the beginning is both the CREATOR and the  CREATURE , this is because everything the beginning began with was created by the creator. 

John 1:1-3 (KJV)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

two things are behind the WORD"  the VOICE and the MAN; but we understand the formation of words, every word started out as a THOUGHT,a WORD and then it becomes an ACTION. Whatever the THOUGHT was, was the WORD and whatever the WORD was,was the ACTION. These are the dimension of everything created, it's like the spirit, the soul and the body, it's called LIFE'S TRINITY. Jesus speaking again said my sheep hears my voice and the voice of another they will not follow" this underscores familiarity born out of the relationship the Shepherd has with the sheep, this statement by Jesus separates the VOICE from the WORD, what it means is that you might know his word but might not know his voice. His word may have created the world but His voice is for LEADERSHIP. 

Romans 8:14 (KJV)
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

How do you separate the word of God from the word of the devil?  It's by His voice, and that's the place of the HOLY SPIRIT.
There are four kind of voices;

(1) the voice of God.

(2) the voice of man.

(3) the voice of the devil.

(4) your voice.

We all hear the four voices one time or the other or sometimes, together, but to attain greatness in God, We should be able to distinguish the voice of God from the others.

Luke 4:1-4 (KJV)
And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, [2] Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. [3] And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. [4] And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Jesus used the word of God as an array to distinguish between the voice of God and the voice of the devil by the Holy Ghost.

The first introduction we have about God is that He created.

Genesis 1:1 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

this means that God was kin at how He was introduced, He would rather want to be perceived well, as being responsible, your action introduce the integrity of your person, the word introduction, is a social term, that implies courtesy, it means you are formal or being formal, its an attribute that thrives success in business, so the "hallmark of responsibility is creativity" responsibility cannot be recognize by any other means, except by creativity, God could create because He is creative, that also means skillful, God was very skillful and His skillfulness earned Him, the Creator,everything He made, He was/is. 

John 1:1-3 (KJV)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Genesis 1:1-2 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [2] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Between verses 1and 2, a lot of things happened that led to the distruction  of  the first world God created, which was why verse two was chaotic, in a state of abysmal, at this stage we are introduced to another aspect of God. " ...and the Spirit of God moved"  this implies that God(Spirit of God) is a moving God, not static,not old fashion, developing,willing to increase and build His capacity, how does one move? (by his leg,car,plane,ship,train etc) this also mean that God is willing to adapt to changes. What was He doing? Inspection, survey,research, after the problem that challenged His integrity, He took up an assignment as to why what happened,happened! He took back the responsibility of His world, He decided to recreate what was destroyed, stating emphatically that He is in control, it was a challenge to His person,authority and position, and the only way to be quit Himself of His Might, He recreated! His world was taken but not His skills, and that was the material for His recreation. 
"...and God said" the third introduction about God is that He spoke!  "...let there be light" God wanted a world, He created it! everything God wanted He created,creativity is a faculty of the mind,empowered by the heart and demonstrated by the hands. Everything God spoke happened the way the word said it, the moment God said let there be light, the light happiered that same instance, 

Genesis 1:1-2 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [2] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Potentials of the word of God; 

(1) quick 
(2) powerful 
(3) sharper

The word is quick; 

meaning the word's got speed. What this implies is that once in the word it quickens you by tremendous speed towards your goals and targets, before long you see your self in great achievement of purpose and destiny. 

Hab. 2:2 " And the Lord answered me, and said, write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it"

Can you see how Gods word injects speed into the life of a man? You cant be committed to Gods word and not be quick to achievement, it's like what happened when the prophet of God overtook the king who supposedly was on horses, it's amazing what God can do through his word,get in the word today and you will see the miracles and wonders of the word, oh i love the word quicken, it means , back to life, refreshed and vitalised 

Romans 8:11 (KJV)
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Your greatest connection to life's success is Gods word.

The word is powerful;

meaning it equips and empowers,it also means fortification. So the word of God is an armoury of defence, it puts you on edge above mediocrity, its stunning to discover the dynamics of God's word, its simply a revolution against mediocrity, a slap against poverty,nothing equals the word in its creativity. Amazingly the infinity God has for and to his word is simply impeccable, God is committed to his word for eternity, to see the acts of God you must know the words of God, God does nothing without his word, if He has not said it He has not done it, the truth is that God cannot go beyond is word, anything that gets God by his word has gotten God by his might " for my word will not return to me void for it MUST accomplish the purpose for why it's sent"  God holds is person to his word. 

Gal. 6:7 
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked..." 

can you hear the tune of that? The word of God is God's suvrinty.

The word is sharper;

this implies that the word is descernning, descisive and for judgement, it also means the wisdom of God, every thing bows to its verdict, thats because of its power. 

Rom.1:16. 
"For  i am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth..." 

how does God make known his salvation? Its by its word. there are three qualities of Gods word;

(1) Capacity
(2) Character
(3) Destination 

The Capacity of Gods word is Its consistency called GRACE, grace is a product of Gods word, everywhere you find grace you see FAVOR, favor is the proof of grace,it announces grace. The word produce grace,grace produce favor,favor is attractive because of grace.

The Character of Gods word is (the spirit of) Excellence and Faith; this duo are both characters of the Spirit, you are distinguish by excellence and faith. 

Romans 10:17 (KJV)
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

notice the voice of God is the criteria for faith, you fall in love consciously, i.e, you make deliberate attempt to build your faith and grow in excellence, under the old covenant we are employed to Fear God, and it's stated in The scriptures that 

"the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom" 

well! Thats under the old covenant, under the new covenant we are rather employed to LOVE God, and I can state empirically that, the Love of God is the end of and to wisdom, so when you fall in love with Gods word, it produces Faith and  Excellence in you for exploit. 

" they that do know their God shall be strong and do exploit"

The destination of Gods word is the glory of God, Gods word takes you to Gods glory which is the purpose of the word, to glorify God. We are made for Gods glory, when we begin to function in our place of assignment and do the things we are called to doing by design, what we do is give glory to God, this is entertainment for God,that's how He is pleasured, that's why purpose is glory to God because it's designed to answer to destiny, when we give glory to God we magnify Him for who and what He is .
The word of God is Gods power, the muscles of a man speaks a lot about his strength. 

Romans 1:16 (KJV)
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

How do we know that God is strong? It's by his muscles, God cannot go beyond His word, if God has not said it He has not done it, He his obliged to his word, the Spirit of God goes everywhere the word is 

"...not one word will lack her mate" 

"...though the grass fades and the 
plants withereds not one word will fall to the ground" 

"the heavens and earth will pass away but my word abideth forever"  

the word of God is Gods sovereignty as well as His integrity, you cannot see the acts of God if you don't know the words of God, if God cannot say it, He cannot do it, the word of God preceed the acts of God, the way God took back the responsibility of His world after inspection was His word, don't just rush up to doing things, business, carrier, marriage etc. first carry out inspection,survey,  Be trained. Your word is synanimouse with your world. God knew exactly what He wanted,He had a mental Picture of it, which was why after creating (calling what He wanted to be) He would approve, 

Genesis 1:4 (KJV)
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

As if to mean that, He would go and look at what He had created to know if it looks like what He had in mind, if not, am sure God would destroy,like the vision He showed to Jeremiah about the potter and the clay where the clay went out of design, what the potter did was to destroy it and build another, so like God, we are,if God created His world by His word, it means we owe our world our word, again notice that it was everything that God wanted, He created, He wanted a house for Himself called Heaven, He created it, so like God whatever you want you should Create, 

"...the just shall leave by his faith" 

what is your faith? 

"... Work out your salvation with fear and trembling"  

as a matter of fact, there are two types of salvation in the scriptures;

(1) Salvation for new birth. The sacrifices for this salvation is Jesus's death on the cross.

(2) Salvation for wealth and prosperity. The sacrifices for this is paid by you.

3 John 1:2 (KJV)
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

This is only a wish, " faith without works is death" this means that faith is useless without works,faith belong to the spirit realm while works to the realm of matter(natural realm) putting both together connects the heavens and the earth, it's your responsibility to leave and stay wealthy and prosperous,God is not responsible for you, He is only committed to you and the you He is committed to, is His word in you, God does not do anything until He is committed to and the only way to get Gods committed is by His word. God does not reveal His secretes until He can trust you, the reason is because secretes are not told to strangers but to friends, and trust is built per time. Can God trust you with His word? I don't believe God is still working, I strongly believe that God is in His rest.

Genesis 2:2 (KJV)
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

Everything that God needed to do He has done and finished. Jesus, scripture says was slain before the foundation of the world, so what this implies is that Jesus didn't die 2000+ years ago, He actually died before the world began, now if Gods word must be believed, it goes to mean that everything about life and creature was finished before it began, bring this into perspective, and you will see the awesome truth of God word and it will buckle your faith, so everything I want I have, its is not about to be giving its given already, it will change you paradyme. 

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

the  child of God leaves in a realm where the future is more real than the passed, "... By His strips we were healed" listen carefully to the revelation of Peter, were, pass terns, meaning it's been settled for you in the passed, listen, what you are in pursuit of is in the passed, it has been yours all the while, the problem is that you did't know, but now, you have known, what do you do? Go and get it, it's all yours for keeps! The cars, money, house etc.

THE FORMS OF GOD

There two categories to this;
(1) The Image.
(2) The Likeness.

Genesis 1:26 (KJV)
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

THE IMAGE. 
Man was born out of a discision,  God did not make man until He had finished every other thing he needed to do. Look at the time, energy and experty. Invested in creating the world, everything God created He spoke into being, but when it got to man, He used His hands, i mean, all of himself, you would notice that the creation of man was the last thing He did before He took in to rest,hmmmm!  What is God saying?

Once this is your focus and pursuit, the idea here is that,  you become a magnet, that's  why it says; " shall be added unto you" the picture that God had in His mind is that, you become attractive, things, in their natural courses begins to navigate to you, you become the centre or the earth, now! this is the Oder of creation.
