“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
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!
