BE FRUITFUL: GET YOUR SKILLS DEVELOPED ENOUGH TO ADD VALUE TO YOUR LIFE


#pastorbiodunsoretire

God made man to have dominion. Yet, the first instruction He gave him is "Be Fruitful!"

You won't have dominion until first of all the seed in you comes to fruition. That seed in you must first bear fruits. Then we can start thinking of dominion. And there is no one in life without seed of potentials. 

We are so loaded with abilities and skills, both inborn and learned ones. A man of God said that each of us has at least 500 abilities. The pity is that majority of them we so overlook till they became wasted and unproductive seeds. I have often said that the cooking skill you overlook is what is making someone to be an employer of labour controlling and influencing lives all around her. 

The first instruction towards man's dominion is "be fruitful". What seed of ability is in you up to a commercial value, what ability in you do you know that if you can develop it and deploy it, it will key you into your path to ascending your throne of dominion? It is time to arise and work on it.

And when I say work on it, you and I know that no sowing comes easy. Even the Bible says that they that bear precious seed weepeth as they go to sow it - Psa. 126:6. You must sow in sweat and tears to reap in refreshment and joy. It will cost you your resources. You will have to spend your money and time to get proficient enough in that ability because if you don't develop it, you will not be able to drink from it. 

You may have to let go of fun and moment of pleasure. You may have to reduce your gisting time, your facebook and whatsApp browsing time, your sleeping time, your eating expenses. All for the sake of making this your seed of talent, gift, ability or anointing to come up to the level of being able to bear fruit towards ascending your throne of dominion.

Why are you so complacent? Why sit down there till you die. Apostle John says in John 12:24 that except that seed falls to the ground, it will abide alone. You must get that seed to the good ground where stones of laziness and carefreeness have been removed, where thorns of cares of life have been burnt, and where a fence against roadside steps of negative public opinions has been errected. You must arise and get that your skill and ability developed enough to add value to your life.

A youth leader said recently that with N6000 as his salary, being an NCE holder, he saw himself through a 5-year degree programme in which he was paying sixty-something thousand naira per session. This made his salary to increase to N12,000. He did not stop there. With that he got married and got himself through a masters programme in which he paid N150,000 as school fees. He moved forward because he was determined to make his teaching skill get developed to the point it can add value towards his fulfilling destiny.

Oh, brother, your excuse is too much. Don't allow excusitis, inflammation and proliferation of excuses, to excuse you from taking your place in destiny. Rouse yourself as a man, roll up your sleeves and get your hands to work on making your abilities fruitful. 

God has made you loaded, you will not die wretched in Jesus' name. Your potential will speak for you in high places in Jesus' name.
