SEEDS OF DESTINY BY PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE, FRIDAY 31st MAY 2019.
TOPIC: AUTHORITY, THE ULTIMATE OF BLESSING.
BIBLE TEXT: Genesis 1:28
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.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The ultimate of the blessing of God is authority
SEEDS OF DESTINY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
The Bible makes it clear that God created mankind to exist in the authority or dominion realm. He created us and blessed us for authority. So, the ultimate of the blessing of God is authority. The instruction from God to man at creation is to be fruitful, multiply, replenish the earth, subdue it and then have dominion or authority (Genesis 1:28).
Throughout Scriptures, we see that the outcome of the blessing on the blessed is authority. God blessed Abraham and Abraham became the most authoritative figure in his generation.
The Blessing of God was on Job and that blessing positioned Job as an authoritative figure in his generation.

Now, what does authority refer to?
1. Excelling or Existing at the Top in Life (Deut. 28:13, Matt. 5:14b)
A person in authority is one who has ascended into prominence by excellence and is standing out at the top of his/her calling or career in life.
2. Existence in Dominion (Gen. 1:28)
A person in authority dominates in his field. If he is a lawyer, for instance, he is someone who has dominated or conquered the legal profession. Once the profession is mentioned, his name comes to mind.
Today, I prophesy the blessing of authority upon your life and destiny. The top is your place; you are leaving the ground level today in Jesus’ Name.
