Genesis‬ ‭1:28

“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and MULTIPLY...”

Walking in God’s command equips you for rulership and ownership here on earth. Therefore the detail of God’s command to man seeks to unearth the person of man; Man is fruitful! and A multiplier!

God has never and will never give a command to man that is beyond man. He places in him the ability “to be” what He instructs.

So the command to multiply does not stand in isolation; you have been graced to multiply what you have.

To multiply is to increase in number especially greatly or in multiples. It involves obtaining another number from a number which contains the first number a specified number of times. So if I have a 4 and I double it to get an 8, I have obtained another number which contains the first number I had twice.

multiplication doubles what you have. God requires that you double Whatever you have. In simple terms you need to Increase what you have.

We must understand that to multiply, we must have something upon which we can increase. If I have two cups of a concentrated drink and I am asked to multiply it, all I need to do is to add a quantity of water to increase its volume.

What we have is the fruits we bear and this is what we must multiply.

The conjunction “and” connects the words “fruitful” and “multiply” together which means you cannot bear fruits without increasing in number greatly or in multiples the fruits you bear.

In other words, You can’t be fruitful without multiplying. The two are not disjointed. Your increase is linked to your fruitfulness.

The fruits you bear out of abiding in Christ must be increased for the world to glorify our father in Heaven.

Whatever you find doing; either in the house of God or at work or anywhere, your service to God must reveal to others that you’re abiding in Christ to bear fruits of increase.

So in all you do;

1. Abide in Christ; stay connected to Him

2. Bear fruits; that exhibits His image and likeness as you abide in Him and

3. Multiply; increase your fruits upon earth.

Is it a business venture, there’s grace to multiply in that field

Or you’re starting a ministry? You have the grace to multiply your fruits.

Maybe you’re a student...you have been imbibed with the ability to multiply.

Multiply that which you bear as fruits.

Increase greatly that which you have in you.

Clone your fruit, multiply its seeds and let the world be represented by your fruits.
