Let’s go Back to the Garden!
It all began in a garden (Genesis) and will end in a garden city (Revelation)
Let’s become gardeners in this next season (2010+beyond), cultivating the soil that God has placed us in. Planting and nurturing the ground with the culture of the Kingdom.
Let’s see the desert places become fertile gardens, wherever our feet tread! Whether your sphere is family, social, economic, political, arts+cultural, educational or media-related? Wherever you are, you are the salt of the earth and the light of the world, a city on a hill. You have been planted in your field as citizens of heaven on earth!
You represent a different realm, the Kingdom of Heaven, you spread the aroma of Christ wherever you go, let Christ dwell richly in you by faith as you permeate the area’s you inhabit.
Be intentional! Plough the ground in prayer, plant seeds, water them, reap the harvest. Let the Kingdom spread through your garden like yeast through dough. Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, uproot the weeds of the enemy and sow righteousness, peace and kindness, be transformed by the renewing of your mind!
Let’s become Kingdom Gardeners along with our King who is the Master Gardener.
This Nation has become a desert, a waste place, filled with jackals.
It’s time to call out the horticulturalists, the organic farmers, the environmentalists…the nomads…the wanderers, those who have the courage to take possession of the land
‘He blessed them and commanded them to be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, subdue it’ (Gen 1:28)
‘Going back to the garden will be significant this season too. A rediscovery of what it means to know God as the Gardener. The garden is a place of creativity. It is a place of origins and firsts. It is a place of rediscovering our true image and identity. It is a place of dominion. It is a place of fruitfulness and creativity. It is a place of filling the earth. It is a place of good food. It is where man becomes a living being. It is a place of relationship and communion with God and one another. It is a place of wild wandering in the cool of the day. It is time for the garden to be revisited.’ (Prophetic Word)
