    About this ebook

    With the upmost intimacy, the Spirit of the Lord unveiled many hidden secrets of Gods image throughout our bones. It was because of this Teachers insight and guidance through the study of the musculoskeletal system, I was privileged to enjoy this eye-opening journey.

    While on our path of study, this amazing Teacher highlighted descriptive words along with biblical number values that were as golden nuggets or stepping stones through the temple of my own body. Those same golden nuggets proved to reveal hidden secrets of Gods handiwork as from a carpenters blueprint.

    The Spirit of the Lord revealed Gods image in one group of our bones, to represent Jesus birth; His life and ministry; thorns that relate to the Kingdom of God, and the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Revelation 4:2-4 has a powerful image of God that surrounds the Sword of the Spirit; and a breathtaking image of Gods love through the Cross. Each and every one of Gods images relate to Genesis 1:26. God said, Let Us make man in our image, according to Our likeness I was constantly reminded that these images of God, and more, were first framed within Adams bones, and they exceed far above all the animals that God Created.

    This book holds a gift of love and encouragement for the entire body of Christ as well as those who are searching for unshakeable identity. Gods image, cleverly designed within our bones will build greater confidence to allow Gods power to flow more freely.

      Discover Hidden Secrets of God’s Image

      As you walk through the temple of your own body; you will discover hidden secrets of God’s image designed throughout your bone structure. You will also experience just how fearfully and wonderfully made you really are!

      God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. (Genesis 1:26-27) NKJ

      I believe Our Heavenly Father has given us this gift of encouragement; that we will allow His power to flow through us more freely.

      And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said, I will dwell in them, and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be my people. (II Corinthians 6:16)

      Dedication

      First and foremost, I dedicate this book to bring Glory and Honor to my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ as Lord. To my husband Darrell for his love and encouragement to complete what the Lord had laid upon my heart. To our two daughters and their families who have given me there unwavering support: And a special dedication to all our grandchildren.

      Preface and Introduction

      This amazing journey through the temple of our body started with a simple human anatomy lesson. The study of the human anatomy was a vital part of a two-year program in order to begin my home-based business.

      The first part of the program was a welcomed challenge for this accomplished homemaker; but something about the musculoskeletal system part of my human anatomy lesson caused me to be more than just a little anxious. I can still recall how cold chills traveled up and down my spine as I flipped through the pages where the diagrams of our skeletal bones were systematically illustrated. It seemed as if the very bones in the pictures actually rose up from off the pages to greet me and then to taunt me at the same time. Before I knew it, something inside me had awakened into a full rebellion that threw me into what I will describe as a frozen state of panic! Now as a rational person I knew that the whole eerie episode was certainly uncalled for and it didn’t take long for me to take the grueling matter to God in prayer.

      When I prayed, I sensed God’s loving presence in the most peaceful fashion, at the same time was made aware that what I had experienced was a spirit of fear. This presence of God’s Holy Spirit brought calmness around me like a warm blanket of comfort to where I had truly come to know the peace that passes all understanding. Within those same precious moments, it was made clear to me that the Holy Spirit was going to walk me through the human bone structure. From that moment on, that spirit of fear had vanished.

      During our walk through the skeletal structure, this amazing Teacher graciously unveiled many hidden secrets of God’s image with the upmost intimacy. Because of the Holy Spirit’s insight and guidance His light had shown into all the reference materials that I had on hand. Certain words and numerical values were as golden nuggets highlighted along our path of study, and each one was expounded upon as being founded upon God’s word.

      Those same golden nuggets led up to reveal God’s hidden images. God’s very own clever handiwork was discovered as if from a carpenter’s blueprint within my own body as well as every man, woman and child. Our Heavenly Father’s very own patterned designs of His images have been locked securely within man since He made Adam. And Oh yes they exceed far above all the animals that God Created.

      I was introduced to God’s images that include designed patterns to be symbolic of Jesus’ birth, life and ministry, the crucifixion and the fruits/ gifts of the Holy Spirit. Revelation 4:2-4 has a powerful God image of its own that is truly incredible. Each and every Image of God relates to Genesis 1:26. I was constantly reminded that these images of God, and more, were first framed within Adam’s own bone structure.

      God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him (Adam); male and female He created them. (Genesis 1:26-27) (emphasis added).

      And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them, and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be my people. (II Corinthians 6:16) (emphasis added)."

      By the conclusion of our first walk together I was left with yet another great surprise! The bonus was that of
