OVERWHELMING DOMINION

Post date: May 11, 2012 7:24:19 AM

“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

What dominates you controls you and what you dominate, you will control. What your heart focuses on always attracts the eyes and that directs your hands to act accordingly. In exercising complete dominion in every situation, you have to know what rightly belongs to you; one of the first and most important place of interest is your heart. The heart was given to you for a purpose. To conceive and to bring to birth great things that will glorify God, bless you and the entire humanity. You can be what you want to be by the kind of things you constantly allow into your heart and thoughts. The selection is absolute yours. Junk in and junk out, or intelligence in and intelligence out, newspapers in newspapers out, godly thoughts in and godly thoughts out, whichever are your desire, the choice is absolutely yours. I will give you an advice, always let your desires in life determined what your heart concentrates on. You cannot be a medical doctor by giving yourself constantly to feeding your minds and thoughts with engineering materials.  

Did you know that before God gave you the power to have dominion He first blessed you and in that blessing He empowers you? You are what comes out of you, and that depends on what goes inside of you. God rightly knows all our desires and is willing and able to meet them all but you have to constantly have to apply your heart, thoughts and actions towards actualizing your desires. The devil also knows all our desires and fights’ using whatever is available to him to stop us from achieving them. If you know this, which you should, then it is paramount that you do all within our power to stop the devil from stopping you. It is required that when God comes to give you your desires, He finds you faithfully glued to those desires in thoughts and actions. Christ Jesus expects us to be unrelenting in our desires; He gave us an example of an unrelenting woman in Luke 18:1-8

It is unfortunate to say that many of us are only at the pick of our demands and desires at prayer time. The rest of the time is given to something else that will not produce the manifestation of the desires. Your dominant thought predicts your actions and your action predicts your expectation. Don’t allow anything that is not of God to dominate you and your thoughts.

Solomon was so engrossed in his desires that he did not miss any opportunity even in a sudden dream at night. That is what a focus heart will produce. That is what a heart that is dominated by desires will produce. It is one thing to be anointed by God through His vessel; it is another thing entirely to fulfill that purpose for which you were anointed. It is one thing to acquire a good education and to have a prestigious hand-on-talent and trade; it is also another thing to make good use of these acquisitions.

“In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, ask what I shall give thee. And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like”. 2 Chronicles 1:7, 11, 12

When your desires have dominion in your thoughts and actions, you will never miss any opportunity even in the wildest dream of the night. As you think in your heart, so are you. Proverbs 23:7.  You will only produce what you allow to grow and take root in your heart.
