Growth is the gate way to dominion
— The first commandment and order from God is to grow. Gen 1:28
— Dominion is God’s mandate for us. You cannot gate-crash into dominion. You grow into it.
You can’t grow into dominion when you are not multiplying
— Focus on the activity that drives growth. It is not an accident, it is intentional. It is a choice.
The Bible illustrates growth as a Palm Tree. It’s attributes are as follows:
It is distinct. Going the extra mile. Psalm 1:1-32
–The palm tree is productive. If you are not productive, you will continue to go in circles. A productive man can never be poor. As a productive person, you have a product, not necessarily a material. It might be a value or a gift that you have.
— Non stop growth. Don’t stop growing. Keep feeding yourself with the important contents to move you forward. Genesis 26:13
• It has deep and firm root. Take time in a solid development. Don’t rush so you don’t get blown away. Take time on the word. Meditate deeply. Psalm 11:3
• Longevity. It takes time
flourish. Growth and maturity comes with time. Proverb 3:2.
Who will flourish?
The righteous Psalm 92:7-12. This is a gift of God through Jesus Christ.
