Dominate! – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional November 5th

(Take Charge Of Your World)

TO THE BIBLE: Genesis 1:28 KJV
“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.”

LET’S TALK
God made this world and gave Adam the authority to run it. He placed all things under him and gave him dominion to be in charge of everything, living and non-living (Genesis 1:26).

When He said to man, “Replenish the earth,” the word “replenish” brings to mind some very important thoughts.

The beautiful world God created had become a chaotic mass, and He blessed man and charged him to replenish it.

To replenish means to refill, refurbish, replace, repair, or restore. That means something had gone wrong; there was a devil out there who had ruined things, and Adam was given the opportunity and responsibility to fix it.

That’s the beautiful life to which we’ve been called in Christ: a life of dominion, authority, blessings, and control over the world in which we live.

God charged us to tame this world and subdue it, not subdue one another. What He wants from us concerning one another is to walk in love.

1 John 4:7-8 says, “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love” (NIV).

As you walk in dominion and authority over the world and its elements, over the vagaries of nature, He says, “Love one another.”

Don’t exert undue dominion over others because each one of us is made in the image and likeness of our heavenly Father.

Matthew 8:26-27; Mark 11:23; Luke 10:19

Pray:
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for the beautiful life you’ve given me—a life of dominion, authority and blessings; a life of control over the forces of nature and the elements of this world. I reign over circumstances, to the glory and praise of your Name, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
