Topic: Live Right And Well (Part 4)
READ: Isaiah 42:5-9 (MSG); Genesis 1:27- 28 (KJV)
“God’s Message,
the God who created the cosmos, stretched out the skies,
laid out the earth and all that grows from it, Who breathes life into earth’s people,
makes them alive with his own life: “I am God. I have called you to live right and well.”
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 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.”
MESSAGE
Beloved, the opening Scripture says, “God . . . Who breathes life into earth’s people, makes them alive with his own life.” You’re to be “alive” with God’s own life (having Jesus Christ in you) to have understanding; to know and do the right thing at all times which will result in fruitfulness, multiplication, replenishment, and dominion.
1 Chronicles 12:32a says, “And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do. . .” God’s blessing upon you is to enable you to have understanding in your studies and work. You need to diligently study to know all that is righteously required of you to be successful (fruitful) in all endeavours of your life. As you discover the truth of success, and work accordingly, you’ll not only be successful but will be like the sons of Issachar that “all their brethren were at their commandment” (1 Chronicles 12:32b).
Arise!! Pray, study, and work for God’s blessing in you to manifest in every facet of your life. God will be pleased when you work and manifest His blessing for everyone to see: “Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion . . . over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.”
Child of God, don’t be lazy and remain a beggar. Let the prophecy in Isaiah 60:1 be fulfilled in you, “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.” Arise and be fruitful.
PRAYER
My God and Father, thank you for your blessing upon me. I repent from all forms of laziness, procrastination, shifting of blame, etc. I pray You give me understanding of my times like the sons of Issachar and guide me to pray, study, and work correctly so I can be fruitful, multiply, replenish, and have dominion, to live right and well always in Jesus’ name. Amen!
