Morning by Morning, May 2 - Looking to “The Express Image of God” Good morning, Lord Jesus. I welcome You here in my heart and in every moment of my day. ... I look to You. I seek You. You are “the Express Image” of God: “God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory and the Express Image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they” (Hebrews 1:1-4). And as I turn to You and look to You, Your Spirit removes everything between us and changes everything within me to be more like You, “transformed into the same image:” “Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:16-18). Keep removing every veil, every sin, every distorted image of who You are and who I am in You. Keep drawing me close to You, lifting up my spirit to You, setting me free in Your liberty to seek You and see You, to behold and worship You, as You change me into Your image “from glory to glory” more and more every day. “For this is the will of God, (my) sanctification” (1 Thessalonians 4:3). This is Your plan for my life -- to make me more like You every day through every battle I face, every test I endure, and every challenge I overcome -- all by Your grace, as I’m looking to You (Romans 8:29; Hebrews 12:1-2). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
