TOPIC: God Wants You To Succeed (TREM Devotional 23 January 2022)
“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 1:28 (KJV)
Now I want you to know that right from creation it has always been the intention of God that we will live a successful life. God wants you to live a life that is filled with achievements and a life that is filled with success. God wants His children to succeed.
By the law of the first mention, the book of Genesis 1:26 reveals that it has always been God’s intention that you succeed. “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and overall the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” (Genesis 1:26 KJV), “And God blessed them…” The word “blessed” in this scripture simply means God empowered them to flourish and thrive in all their endeavors. Child of God, you have been empowered by God to succeed in life. You have been empowered to succeed in whatever you are involved in.
Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”
(Genesis 1:28 NLT). So, success has always been God’s agenda. The moment man was created, God opened His mouth and the first declaration was: “You are blessed! You are empowered! And this empowerment is meant to make you successful and prosperous in whatever you are involved in. This has always been God’s agenda.
The scripture tells us in the book of Jeremiah 29:11: “I alone know the plans I have for you, plans to bring you prosperity and not disaster, plans to bring about the future you hope for” (GNT)
