A New Kind Of Dominion
When God made man, He gave man dominion over everything on earth (Genesis 1:26). Man had so much authority over the earth that he could tell the animals what to do. This was tainted by man’s fall but the death of Christ has ushered a new kind of dominion which super-exceeds that of Adam. To understand the kind of dominion I am referring to here, let us look at the perfect Man, Jesus Christ.
When Jesus wanted to pay the temple tax, He didn’t have to toil from sun up to sun down but only needed to command a fish to bring the money to Him (Matthew 17:24–27). There was no record of Adam feeding the animals with food that has been multiplied but when Jesus wanted to feed a multitude, He only needed to multiply five loaves and two fish in His hands (Mark 6:34–44). He also had authority over nature when a storm threatened the lives of His disciples, He only had to speak to the storm and there was perfect calm (Mark 4:35–41). And every sick person who was brought to Him went away healed and transformed (Matthew 8:16). He even brought the dead back to life because He had dominion over death (Matthew 9:24-25)!
Today, a new kind of dominion, the same dominion that Jesus exercised has been given to you because Christ is in you (Colossians 1:27). You now have dominion over sickness, poverty, lack and failure. Yours is health, prosperity and success always. Don’t let people talk you into ups and downs. Yours is forward and upwards only. You need to understand that since God’s greater purpose is for man to have dominion on earth, it would include blessings such as health and provision.
The reason why many have been weakened beggarly is because of the lack of knowledge of who we really are and what we have. The devil thrives in your area of darkness and this area of darkness can be ignorance. Now you know what you have, so don’t let this present world and its problems cripple you.
My beloved, you have been born again of the Spirit, born to rule and have dominion over everything on earth so walk in it!
