MULTIPLY
Bible Reading: Genesis 1:20-31
Text: "Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.'' (Genesis 1:28 NKJV)
COMMENTARY
God has designed us with the capacity to be fruitful, the ability to multiply, and the potential to be highly productive. To be fruitful means to bring forth results, to produce something meaningful.
In the Bible, fruit is often used as a metaphor for the outcomes of our lives. Our fruits can be either good or bad (Matthew 7:18; Luke 6:43). The type of fruit we bear is directly influenced by who governs our life and what resides in our heart (Matthew 15:19). When we surrender our lives to Christ, we naturally produce fruit that reflects His nature and character (Galatians 5:22-23). However, when our hearts are not fully submitted to Jesus, we struggle with negative fruitfulness—things like sexual immorality, impurity, idolatry, hatred, and more (Galatians 5:19-20).
The foundation of true fruitfulness begins in a heart that is filled with the fruit of the Spirit. A life that is fully yielded to Christ and deeply connected to Him will bear lasting, meaningful results. The inner transformation we experience through Christ is reflected in our outward actions, our lifestyle, and our character. This fruitfulness extends into every area of our lives—our homes, our families, our wealth, and our marriages.
If you find that your life is lacking fruitfulness, something is missing, and it’s time to address it. Allow the Holy Spirit to take full control of your life and guide you.
Before you sleep tonight, take a moment to pray and surrender yourself completely to God.
