Grow Your Flock

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

To grow anything implies that you already have a specimen of what you want to grow. Please read Genesis Chapter 1. With that specimen, whether singular or double, you grow whatever it is that you want to grow and expand to the North, South, East and West by the grace of God. Growth may not be automatic. Most times, growth is progressive, sometimes painstakingly challenging and fraught with what may bring in discouragement. But beloved, growth which leads to expansion does not always fall on people like a bag of cherries. It is work, real smart, creative and hard work.

Jacob lacked the resources he urgently required to grow his much needed flock so he could have his own business to manage; as well as take care of his family. His uncle Laban, with whom he had discussed and to whom he looked up to make available the resources he required had once again disappointed him by removing the requisite  flock with which he would have grown his flock. Rather than commence a pity party of tears and complaints, Jacob embarked on a creativity party (Joel Chapter 2 verses 28 to 32, Acts Chapter 2 verses 38 to 39, Genesis Chapters 30 verses 25 to 43, 31 verses 4 to 13) with which he grew his flock, an extremely large flock.

Beloved, it is possible to grow your flock; whatever it is; irrespective of the challenges that appear to be making it difficult for you to grow your flock. Perhaps what you require is a creativity party, with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. That party will produce what you require, the divine ideas as well as other resources that you require to grow your flock because whether you like it or not, God demands increase from you in the work of your hands, His divine plans and purposes for your life. Therefore, request what you require to grow your flock from God the Father and He will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Jacob was not emotional about growing his flock out of what Laban gave to him. After all, Laban was the one who reneged on the agreement they had. So Jacob had to use what was available; deploying some creativity to create speckled flock from which he grew his large flock.

Sometimes, you have to let go of emotions to grow your flock, to walk in divine purpose. For when eventually, Jacob had to leave Laban’s house, he left without considering that they were family and that he was not being emotional about it. Rather, he focused on divine purpose and left for Canaan with his family.
