Genesis 1:26
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth”.
The Bible again in 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”.
God’s mandate or order to man is for him to have dominion over everything on the earth.
Dominion means the power to control, or rule. Meaning that God wants man to rule in the affairs of life. God wants man to simply be in charge. Psalm 8:6 says of man that, “Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet”.
God wants you to be in charge in life. He wants you to exercise power over the circumstances of life.
It is by walking in dominion that you can make any meaningful progress in life.
Anytime you engage the force of dominion, you keep on keeping on despite the negative forces that may contend with you.
Remember that God has given you the power to be in control over affairs of life and also stay on top of issues.
Read: Psalm 8:6
Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
Prayer: Lord, I thank you for the power you have deposited in me to have dominion in life.
