Topic: Activating The Blessing
Wherever you find the Blessing; fruitfulness, multiplication, replenishment, subjugation and dominion must follow. If the overflow is your destination, then, the Blessing is your pathway.
SCRIPTURE: And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:28
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God only blesses you according to your capacity to bless others. If you desire the Blessing of God, then, be a blessing to both God and man.
The Blessing of God is a non-contestable secret of the overflow. In Genesis 1:28, God blessed Adam and said to him, “…because of this Blessing that is on you, be fruitful, multiply, saturate the earth, bring it under control and subdue it” (paraphrased).
This means, wherever you find the Blessing; fruitfulness, multiplication, replenishment, subjugation and dominion must follow. If the overflow is your destination, then, the Blessing is your pathway.
Apart from Adam, God blessed Abraham also. Abraham was so blessed that he became a blessing to his generation; the Blessing landed upon Abraham, upon Isaac and then on Jacob (Gen. 24:1, 35, Gen. 25:5, Gen. 27: 21-29). Abraham, Isaac and Jacob did not end empty-handed in life.
Beloved, it is an abomination to be empty-handed with the Blessing. It is an abomination to have a dry account, a dry ministry or a dry business with the Blessing. The Blessing is superior to money, properties or human connections (Genesis 26:1-14).
Now, how is the Blessing activated?
Let me give you two ways of activating the Blessing:
1. Hearing and doing the Word (Revelation 1:3)
There is blessedness in reading the Word of God. Every time you read the Word of God, ask Him what He wants you to see and do out of Scriptures, and ensure you do it (James 1:25, Deuteronomy 28:1-4). Disobedience to the Word disconnects a person from the Blessing.
2. Being a blessing (Genesis 12:2)
To become a blessed person, you must be a blessing to other people. God only blesses you according to your capacity to bless others. If you desire the Blessing of God, then, be a blessing to both God and man.
Today, as you make up your mind to obey the Word of God and be a blessing to your generation, I decree that you are blessed in Jesus’ Name.
REMEMBER THIS: God only blesses you according to your capacity to bless others. If you desire the Blessing of God, then, be a blessing to both God and man.
