EVERYTHING YOU’LL BECOME SHALL BE BECAUSE OF WHO GOD IS
Genesis 35:11a (KJV, NLT, LB), Genesis 17:1a, 6 (NLT)
And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply;… * Then God said, “I am El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty.’ Be fruitful and multiply….*I am God Almighty,” the Lord said to him, “and I will cause you to be fertile and to multiply… *When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty.’…*I will make you extremely fruitful.
As he travelled back home from Laban’s house, Jacob was afraid of meeting Esau, so he sent his family ahead of him and while he was alone, he had an encounter with God. In that encounter, God introduced himself to Jacob as El-Shaddai (God Almighty). God then told Jacob to be fruitful and multiply. As we see in the Living Bible, God was saying to Jacob, “Because I am El-Shaddai, you will be fruitful and you will multiply. I will make you fruitful and I will make you multiply.” This was the exact thing God had told Abraham (Gen. 17).
God did not just tell them to be fruitful and multiply. He said I am the God of all fruitfulness and multiplication so you will be fruitful and multiply. Beloved, through Christ God is reintroducing Himself to you this year and as He reintroduces Himself to you, you will find yourself manifesting the attributes that go with God’s glorious name/identity. God will make you manifest His character, nature, power and glory. Remember that you are one with Him (1 Cor.6:17) and He is at work in you by His Spirit (Phil.2:13).
All of God’s fullness dwells in Christ and you are complete in Him, (Col.2:9-10). As you focus on Christ, God will reveal Himself to you and He will cause you to manifest His character, nature, power and glory.
Faith Declaration:
As I focus on Christ this year, I receive the revelation of who God is and my life reflects that revelation of God.
