There is not one of us, born anew by faith in Jesus, on earth, who is here on vacation or as a tourist. Many of us have not really come to believe that the destiny of the earth is inextricably tied to us. Your destiny is to have dominion over the entire earth. This is God’s eternal purpose for your life. You must arise and walk in the spirit of dominion. The all-conquering spirit of the resurrected Christ is your spiritual nature as a child of God.
Determine to engage the spirit of dominion and conquer the earth and its challenges just so you can become a global blessing for generations.
I would want to share with you something from ‘The Millennium Development Goals Report 2014’, to help you appreciate why God wants you to succeed and do extremely well. There is an earth to bless and vulnerable lives to preserve. God is expecting you to do something about the state of the earth and its people. God has done His part in sending Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to the earth. What becomes of the earth is up to the church and the body of the Lord Jesus Christ.
A total of 842 million people, or about one in eight people in the world, were estimated to be suffering from chronic hunger in 2011–2013. The vast majority of those people (827 million) resided in developing regions.
Remember the Poor
Galatians 2:10
Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
Paul and Barnabas and the entire gentile church were charged by the apostles, in Jerusalem, to remember the poor. Does that suggest that the church was expected to be poor? Were they asking Paul and Barnabas to become poverty compliant? How are they supposed to remember the poor when they are thinking about their own poverty? You have no business being poor. You cannot be relevant to the world if you become part of the problem in the earth and not the solution.
You are the light of the world, please shine.
Rule and Subdue the Earth!
