THIS IS THE SECRET TO RISING ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND WALKING IN AUTHORITY | APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN

Spiritual authority, rising above limitations and Christlike character are the focus of this teaching by Apostle Joshua Selman. Discover why spiritual growth involves both who you become and how you live. In “Greater Light, Part One: The Mysteries of Dominion,” the message begins with a challenge to receive, believe and apply God’s Word. Through the illustration of a painter developing a portrait, the teaching encourages listeners to trust God’s work of formation while taking responsibility for learning and practicing the truth. Genesis 1:26–28 provides the foundation for exploring God’s image and likeness. Apostle Joshua Selman connects the image of God with His nature as revealed in Christ, emphasizing love, compassion, patience, humility and the fruit of the Spirit. He challenges listeners to make these qualities visible in relationships, family life, business culture and leadership, including how they treat people outside the Christian faith. The second emphasis is learning to function according to Scripture. Drawing lessons from creation, the message discusses perseverance, vision, speech and the intelligent coordination of resources. It then develops three responses: speaking consistently with God’s Word, walking in obedience and embracing sacrifice. Declarations are accompanied by diligence, integrity, growing capacity and responsible action. This is a call to pursue spiritual maturity with practical application. The service includes prayer for Christlike character, an invitation to receive Jesus and closing blessings. IN THIS MESSAGE: • Understand the distinction between God’s image and likeness in this teaching. • Explore love and the fruit of the Spirit as foundations for Christian character. • Translate kindness, courtesy and mutual respect into everyday conduct. • Consider spiritual understanding alongside knowledge of life and your profession. • Join scriptural declarations with obedience, diligence and service. • Reflect on sacrifice through prayer, study, praise and commitment to God. Listen prayerfully, study the passages discussed and choose a specific lesson to practice this week. Revisit the sections on character and obedience with your family or study group.
