Blessings of Life, Leadership, Multiplication and Fruitfulness

UV 3187/10000 Blessings of Life, Leadership, Multiplication and Fruitfulness
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 v 28
From this uni-verse, we learn that the blessing of God is crucial for life, leadership, multiplication and fruitfulness. It does not say ,” be successful or prosperous” for success and prosperity are human inventions of a later day. God, the Creator purposed that the human being, sentient and created in His image, whether male or female, is to be fruitful, multiply, replenish the earth, subdue it, rule over every other creature. Man is created to walk in intimacy with God. In partnership with God, we are to live, be fruitful, multiply, lead, rule. In partnership with God we are blessed. Divorced or separated from God, we are cursed or we fail to be fruitful, fail to multiply, replenish, fail to subdue, lead and rule. Divorced or separated, we lost the vestiges of the image of God. We have knowledge like God but we do not have wisdom like God. To restore us to that image of God where we can live, be fruitful in all we think, say and do, multiply, replenish, subdue, lead and rule, Christ, the wisdom of God was sent by God, the Redeemer to dwell with us and in us.
In the absence of the wisdom of God in Christ, we cannot be blessed. We cannot be fruitful, multiply, subdue, lead or rule. We are no longer concerned with human concepts of success and failure, prosperity or poverty but with a focus on remaining blessed in Christ to live, to lead, to rule, to serve, to love, to renew, to rejoice in Christ. We build our house with Christ as the chief cornerstone or keystone. Every stone or part of our lives is built in reference to the Word or teachings of Christ, the example of Christ. We are therefore, not building in vain but for gain, not just temporal but for eternal gain.
Walking with God or making every step we take match with the step of God or what He would have us do, talking with God or submitting every step we take in prayer into His hands is the key to blessings of the Almighty Creator, the Compassionate Redeemer. Thinking the words of Jesus, speaking the words of Jesus, doing the words of Jesus is the key to being blessed, fruitful, renewed, restored, able to subdue what needs to be subdued, able to lead and co-rule with Him. We were created in the image of God but our deliberate and unintentional choices distorted that image. Now, we are redeemed and restored to the image of Christ Jesus. We are to be fruitful not just physically or intellectually or socially but be spiritually fruitful by bearing the fruit of the spirit of love, joy, peace,patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility and self control. The wisdom of Christ contained in the word along with the power or anointing of the Holy Spirit enables us to lead, subdue, rule. We are not only co-heirs with Christ of every heavenly blessing but we are co-rulers with Him on earth and in heaven.
