Teaching on Genesis 1:28
“Be Fruitful” — פְּרוּ (Peru)
God didn’t say, “Try.”
He commanded fruit.
Fruit means:
  • Character
  • Mindset
  • Ideas
  • Creativity
  • Purpose
  • Vision
  • Results
God built fruit inside you.
You’re not trying to become fruitful — you’re already wired for it.
“Multiply” — רְבוּ (Rebu)
God never intended you to remain the same.
Increase is not a blessing — it’s a command.
You’re supposed to grow in:
  • influence
  • responsibility
  • faith
  • maturity
  • resources
  • wisdom
  • impact
When you feel the stretching, that’s multiplication beginning.
“Fill the Earth” — מִלְאוּ (Mil’u)
God wants you to complete what He started in you.
Fill the earth with:
  • His presence
  • His wisdom
  • His character
  • His image
  • Your assignment
  • Your gifts
  • Your testimony
Everywhere you go, emptiness should disappear.
Every room you walk in should be different because you’re there.
“Subdue It” — וְכִבְשֻׁהָ (Kibshuhah)
You are not weak.
You are not meant to be pushed around mentally, spiritually, or emotionally.
Subdue means:
  • Take control
  • Set order
  • Set boundaries
  • Push back darkness
  • Conquer chaos
  • Refuse defeat
Anything that fights your destiny must be subdued.
“Have Dominion” — רְדוּ (Redu)
Dominion is identity.
You were created to rule, not react.
To govern, not drift.
To lead, not follow fear.
Dominion means:
  • You speak with authority
  • You move with confidence
  • You live with purpose
  • You understand your assignment
  • You walk like a son and daughter of God
Dominion is not arrogance — it is stewardship under God.
🔥 Full Devotional Summary
God’s first words to humanity were not suggestions.
They were identity statements.
Produce.
Grow.
Fill.
Conquer.
Rule.
Every battle you face is the enemy trying to disconnect you from this identity.
But God is restoring you back to the Genesis mandate — the reason you exist.
