MULTIPLY

From early in life we start learning mathematics. We learn to count and add and subtract first. Later we learn to multiply and divide. From very early mankind was told to multiply: 

Then God blessed them, and God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth. Genesis 1:28

When we become born again, we have dominion and have every blessing in the Bible due to us. We read the Bible with Jesus in mind. The Holy Spirit teaches us with Jesus at the centre of everything.

From very early we are told to be fruitful and multiply. We are supposed to multiply and be a blessing to others. Our works taken forward as others carry it on. Our works taking the message of Jesus forward. All these are ways in which we can multiply in our rebirth. 

God said the same thing to Noah:

And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth…Genesis 9:1-7

It seems very important if it is repeated. You can find it at turning points in our history. The final blessing of Abraham in this passage is that all families of the earth are blessed by us.

Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Genesis 12:1-3

You might be asking, How? Let us go back to the dominion part. In Genesis 1:28, it says we are able to subdue and have dominion. But that is not over each other it for the animals. In that way you can bring about meaningful change on the earth. Be kinder to each other.

Of course there is more to this. By praising God we can change the atmosphere. By praying for others we help others. By giving counsel and speaking truth. By speaking about Jesus or saying a verse of scripture, we can give hope through Christ. 

Here is one to think about. By exercising our dominion over the spiritual things that are not of God we can set others free. I think this is incredible.  By exercising dominion over natural creatures we practise our spiritual authority. What we bind on earth is bound in heaven. What we loose on earth in loose in heaven. 

I pray that the fruit of your work is blessed. I pray the blessings of God are multiplied in you and through you in Jesus name.

If you have not accepted Jesus as your saviour you can pray this;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.
