[The Glory Unveiled]
Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth and no plant had yet sprung up, for the LORD God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no one to work the ground, ( Genesis 2:5 )
Our God is a strategist. He does not act haphazardly, in disorder and chaos. Speaking about the beginnings, the Scripture says God did not allow rain to fall on the earth because there was no one to till the land. The Lord did not permit the resources that will cause an increase on the earth; namely rain, because there was no man to work the ground. The earth would have been disorganized and weedy. Before God would allow the shrubs and the plants to grow as a result of giving rain, He would have created a man to take charge of the management of the earth. Likewise God is not allowing increase in certain places because though there may be people, there is no one to manage the resources available. So you’d see that there is no “rain” for increase in such places and institutions. This comes down to individuals. There is no growth, around and in them because they will not manage the little resources entrusted to their care. God does not encourage mismanagement and misuse. Before we pray for “rains” of increase, we must be ready with a management mentality and attitude. So, don’t even pray for the rains, be a manager, and the rain and increase will come.
Prayer_Bead: Lord of the harvest, the giver of increase, thank you for showing me the secret for increase in your kingdom. I receive the spirit of management. I will manage the little entrusted to my care. So help me, Father.
