Genesis 1:28, KJV: "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
From the scripture above, we can say that one of the mind of God for mankind is to have dominion, over all other creatures. Likewise, John 1: 12- says 'But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name'. Ultimately, the two scriptures are parallel in meaning- it emphasizes God's given power in life, which we also called dominion. In fact, the book of Genesis emphasized God the creator and not the creation. Dominion has to be understood in the context of kingdom, and then power. According to the English Dictionary, Dominion means power to control; sovereignty or control. Therefore, we need to know and acknowledge God Almighty as the King and without the ultimate King, there is no kingdom. Right from creation, God is and will always be the King. He’s been the King, ruling with power and His authority cannot be challenged. ' .. His dominion and the peace shall have no end' Isaiah 9:7. Also, where the word of a king is, there’s power. Ecclesiastes 8:4. As believers, we carry the power of the King; to dominate with His light and bring all men into His marvelous light. Flash words
