Dominion lifestyle is God’s original plan for mankind; and our identity, God-ordained Bethel as a mountain of encounter in order to enforce the fulfilment of His purpose for our lives.
“In His days the righteous shall flourish, And abundance of peace, Until the moon, is no more. He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, And from the River to the ends of the earth”.
Psalms 72:7-8
Bethel is also an altar to experience God in fulfilling our glorious destiny; until Jacob encountered God at Bethel, his life was a shadow of his destiny. God ordained Bethel for the turnaround of everyone living in the shadow of God’s purpose for their lives. Whatever makes you live in the shadow of your original self shall not escape your encounter with God at Bethel in Jesus name.
For this is the word of promise:
“At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son.” [10] And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac [11] (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), [12] it was said to her, “The older shall serve the younger.” [13] As it is written, “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.”
Romans 9:9-13
That was the written blueprint of Jacob’s life.
Jacob was not born to suffer or struggle. He was the favored one.
But by satanic manipulation through his mother’s deceitfulness, he ended up in family slavery.
“So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob.” [42] And the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, Surely your brother Esau comforts himself concerning you by intending to kill you”.
Genesis 27:41-42
Jacob was on a journey of no return. A journey without a mission or definite destination. His destiny was in crisis, but an encounter with the God of Bethel rescued his destiny.
“I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and where you made a vow to Me. Now arise, get out of this land, and return to the land of your family.”
Genesis 31:13
In the precious name of Jesus, your experience at Bethel shall be a turning point in your life.
