The Legacy of Sustainability

 


Sub-Topic: Making a Positive Impact on Future Generations

Biblical text: Genesis 1:28

Commentary:

Genesis 1:28 tells us to "be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth." This might be read as a request to keep the earth's resources productive and bountiful for future generations.

Consider a world in which clean air and water are not luxuries, but the standard. A world in which verdant woods absorb carbon dioxide and beautiful coral reefs are brimming with life. This future is feasible, but it takes deliberate action now. 

By adopting stewardship, we leave a legacy of hope, guaranteeing a healthy and sustainable earth for future generations. Let us take up the task for the sake of our children, God's creation, and the future of our common home.

Prayer: Please help me make decisions today that will secure a healthy and sustainable future for generations to come.

Work Action: Talk to your family or friends about the significance of environmental stewardship. Discuss how you can all make adjustments in your everyday life to decrease your influence on the environment.

Scriptural Reference: Proverbs 22:28-29  "Do not move the old border stone that your predecessors have erected. Have you not encountered a guy who is good at his job? He will stand before monarchs, but not before ordinary people."

  Bible Reading : Exodus 2:23-25 Text : "He remembers his covenant forever, the word He commended, for a thousand generation" (Ps. 105:8). NIV COMMENTARY : The Israelites spent 430 years in Egypt.

But the later part was in agony; when the Pharaoh that knew not Joseph reigned, their suffering was so unbearable that they cried unto God, and the Bible says; "God heard their groaning and remembered and remembered his covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Exo. 2:24, 25). God heard their groaning but what moved him was the covenant. Listen! Your name, tears, knowledge, experience or wealth may not move God but covenant does. You can maintain your covenant with God by walking blamelessly and constantly putting Him in remembrance of the covenant which is the scripture.. As you are about to sleep tonight, I prophesy to you that this year's covenant is moving God for your...

EQUIPPED FOR SPIRITUAL ARMOR

Bible Reading : Ephesians 6:10-13 Text : Eph. 6:12 "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places". (NKJV) COMMENTARY Every Christian is in a combat field. The conflict is spiritual. When you succeed spiritually, the physical is a work over. The spiritual governs the physical. We are grateful that God provided for our combat weapons rather than abandoning us helplessly. Read More...

GIVE GENEROUSLY

Image
Bible Reading : 11 Corinthians 9:6-12 Text : 2 Corinthians 9:6 "But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully".(NKJV) COMMENTARY Simply put, sparingly implies giving very little compared to what you already have. Giving must be done sacrificially to produce results. That is a generous donation. Giving that doesn't affect you isn't a plentiful seed; a bountiful seed hurts the giver but moves God. When you give to God's work or someone who is unable to repay you, miracles happen.. Read More
