The Principle of Increase

Part I

 

God is the God of INCREASE!

The principle of the Kingdom of God is: Increase and Multiplication.

God wants to bring "Increase" and "Multiplication" into your life.

He wants you and me to life and walk in "Divine Increase".

That needs to be settled in our hearts and minds.

  • For far too long we have allowed the Devil to keep us from walking in this "core principle" of the Kingdom of God.
  • We have been content to live below the level of what God has intended for us. That has to change!

 

READ: II Corinthians 9:6-11,

  • Key Verses: 10 &11
  • Psalm 115:11-14 (Amplified Bible)

You who (reverently) fear the Lord, trust and lean on the Lord! He is their help and their shield.

The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron [the priesthood].

He will bless those who reverently and worshipfully fear the Lord, both small and great.

The Lord give you increase more and more, you and your children.
  • Deuteronomy 1:11

May the Lord, the God of your fathers, increase you a thousand-fold more than you are and bless you, just as He has promised you!
  • II Corinthians 1:20

For as many as are the promises of God, in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is our Amen to the glory of God through us.

Settle it in your heart:
    • God is the God of Increase!
    • And, He desires to bring "Increase" in your life.

We often settle for less an God’s best because we allow the Devil to convinces us that we don’t have the right to expect God’s Increase in our lives. (That is a "flat out Lie"!)
    • It is time to stop allowing the Devil to rob you and rip you off!

 

The "A,B,C’s" walking in Divine Increase

A: You must begin to "Agree" with God.

  • Faith: agreeing with God and then acting upon it.
  • We must live life God’s way and by His principles.
  • You can’t live like the world six (6) days a week and expect God’s blessings to flow in your life.

 

 

B: You must "Believe" at all of God’s Promises and Provisions are for you!

  • II Corinthians 1:20

 

C: You must begin to "Claim and Confess" Divine Increase in your life.

  • You will never possess God’s Divine Increase until you begin to claim it and confess it by faith.
  • Proverbs 18:21
  • Romans 10:8-10

Remember that God’s purposes are to extend His Kingdom and be "Glorified" in and through our lives.

  • If we fail (or refuse) to embrace God’s Principle of Increase in our lives (individually and corporately) that God’s purposes will not be accomplished in us or through us.
  • Divine Increase is not about us getting more "stuff". It is about us living out the Prayer of Jabez, so that we can be a greater blessing!

 

It all starts with making sure that we are "in right relationship" with Jesus Christ.

  • God’s Principle of Increase is not for "unbelievers".
  • Get your life in order……and keep it there!
