The Blessing stirs fruitfulness and dominion.




“And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.” Genesis 1:21-22(KJV)

From our opening scripture, we see that whenever God creates a thing, He blesses it. The blessing puts an end to shortage. The blessing prolongs your days.

In Genesis 24:1 the Bible says, “And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.” That blessing of productivity continued to function in Abraham’s life that even after Sarah died, Abraham married Keturah. In Genesis 15:1 the Bible says, “Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.” And she bore him six sons, meaning that Abraham still had strength at old age because the blessing was still working in him. This shows us that the blessing renews your youth.   

In Genesis 1:28, the Bible says, “And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion …” This shows us that the blessing activates your dominion and empowers you for dominion.

When Adam sinned against God, God cursed the ground for Adam’s sake in Genesis 3:17. So, as a result of Adam’s sin, the curse came upon all men. But when Noah was born, his father Lamech said concerning his son in Genesis 5:29(GNB) “From the very ground on which the LORD put a curse, this child will bring us relief from all our hard work"; so he named him Noah.”  This word was fulfilled in Noah’s life in Genesis 8:20-21, “And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake…” And then in Genesis 9:1-2, God blessed Noah and his sons and restored dominion back to man. Today every curse on the ground because of Adam’s sin has been removed by the blessing. Praise God.

CONFESSION
Dear Father, I thank you because your blessing on my life has brought me to a place of abounding grace for fruitfulness and dominion. I experience productivity in my body, in my job, in my finances, and upon every area of my life. I curse every form of dryness and satanic confrontation against me and I reign over them all in Jesus Name. Amen.
