Who Will You Partner With?


God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”

Genesis 1:28

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

Genesis 3:1

Cross references:


Suppose you had never read any scriptures before and knew nothing of

God or the devil until you read the two verses above.

Now further suppose that you were told you could partner with God or the devil to accomplish things in the earth.

Who would you choose to partner with?

Well, your distant (in the past) relative made just such a choice.

Adam and Eve were blessed by God and given dominion over the earth.

God desired to partner with them but when they were faced with a test Adam and Eve made their choice and the rest – as they say – is history!

Imagine surrendering what was theirs in the Garden.

Imagine surrendering fellowship with God – face to face in Eden.

Imagine surrendering the plans God had for them.

God is prepared to do great things in your life.

He desires to partner with you to accomplish His purposes in the earth.

But just as Adam and Eve did, you too will face a test.

The plans of God always bring the testings of God before the manifestation.

You will always have to make a choice.

Just as Adam and Eve had that choice to make in the Garden; just as Abraham did on the mountain; just as Jesus did – yes even Jesus – in the Garden of Gethsemane.

Shortcuts may work on a computer or they may work on a road trip but they will not work with Gods’ established purposes in the earth.

He desires to partner with you but His power is released in those who have been tested and have passed the test.

Do you want to partner with God?

Be prepared for the testings that will come!  :6 : Ps 1:4; Jer 4:12
