We should desire to be like Jesus in our values, beliefs, character, and behavior. The only way we can be imitators of God is that we would follow him. We must come to know Him. We must learn from Him, and it’s only then that we will know what to imitate.

Main Points:

1. In some ways, we cannot be like God. You and I will never be all-knowing or all-powerful. We will never be omnipresent. We cannot be unchangeable like God. But there are characteristics of God that we can emulate.
2. We can imitate His characteristics like love, kindness, forgiveness, generosity, patience, grace, and mercy. We can be like God by living in purity, righteousness, and holiness.
3. To imitate God means that we follow his example, and we should follow it closely. When we were born again we entered into his family. We belong to God and we bear his name.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Ephesians 5:1 - “Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.”

Romans 12:2 NLT - "Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
Ephesians 4:13 - "...“become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ”
