« And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” »
20 Then God commanded, “Let the water be filled with many kinds of living beings, and let the air be filled with birds.”
21 So God created the great sea monsters, all kinds of creatures that live in the water, and all kinds of birds. And God was pleased with what he saw.
22 He blessed them all and told the creatures that live in the water to reproduce and to fill the sea, and he told the birds to increase in number.
23 Evening passed and morning came—that was the fifth day.
Our God is not just the God of creation, He is also the God of abundance.
When God creates, He does not do so sparingly.
He is still in the business of creation, according to John 5:17 CEV which says:
« ……”My Father has never stopped working, and this is why I keep on working.”…..»
This is why the provision He made in the universe has not been exhausted.
An end has come to every form of fruitlessness and lack in your life today, in Jesus’ name.
Our God is also the God of variety- He created both great and small in different forms.
This knowledge must have informed Apostle Paul’s assurance to the Philippians that the Almighty God would supply all their need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).
Another lesson we could learn from today’s reading is that God blessed His handwork to be fruitful and to multiply.
We can thus see how foolish anyone would be if he or she agrees with the devil that God hates him or her.
Our God is interested in the prosperity of His people.
The Psalmist understood this and wrote:
«……let them say continually, “Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.” »
Psalm 35:27 NKJV
Nobody cares about us more than God.
His care, mercy and love are incomparable.
Jesus said in John 15:13 NLT
« There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. »
Romans 8:32 ISV also says
« The one who did not spare his own Son, but offered him as a sacrifice for all of us, surely will give us all things, along with his Son, won’t he? »
This is why He said in Luke 12:31NLT
« Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and He will give you everything you need »
In light of the above therefore, trust God for all you need in life because His name is Jehovah-Jireh (The Lord our Provider).
Do not cut corners to be rich; if you do, this would have grave consequences.
May the God of abundance meet all your needs this season, in Jesus’ name.
Prayer focus: Father, please meet me at the point of my needs today, according to Your riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
