THEME: DOMINION FUNCTIONS THROUGH REVELATION
Isaiah 11:1-9
Dominion is a function of revelation, not education. The seat of man’s dominion is in his inward man. The software for functioning in dominion is revelation knowledge.
Education exists in three different levels. There is education at the highest level which is the education of the spirit man. It gives man access to the deep things of God which are beyond the scope of man's natural capabilities. The privilege to see, hear and know the secret things of God is the highest education a man can have. Access to this privilege is opened through worship, prayer and the study of God’s word.
The next level of education is the education of the mind. This is what happens when people go to school and acquire knowledge; some, unto becoming experts in their chosen fields of pursuit. Some grow to become professors and intellectual giants but are grossly limited in the area of knowing God and accessing spiritual education and guidance from Him.
Education of the body is known as physical education. This is the education given to the body through training to acquire various skills and competences that are valuable in life. Some have developed their bodies to become competent in some sports to the extent that the dexterity and skills the body has acquired has become a major income earner.
To excel in life, you have to grow constantly in wisdom and knowledge and understanding. Let the various dimensions of the Spirit of God listed in our passage today illuminate your heart. Jesus died for you to make you the best you can be.
Pray that the Spirit of wisdom, knowledge and understanding will rest upon you.
Pray that you abide in righteousness and faithfulness.
CONFESSION: The earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord’s glory; I am a willing vessel wholly available for use.
