Preacher: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Date: 31/01/2025

WHAT IS DOMINION?

• Dominion comes from the Hebrew word Radah.

• Radah means to rule, reign, govern, tread down, or exercise authority.

• Dominion is the reason for the creation of man.

• Dominion is over the works of creation, not to lord over men.

• Dominion means to be in control and influence your world.

• It means ruling over death, poverty, and economic hardship — they are meant to be subject to you.

• Dominion is choosing to be a prevailing force wherever you are.

• In simple terms, dominion means influencing your world.

📖 Exodus 9:1 — Israel exercised dominion. 📖 Genesis 31:1 — Dominion is supernatural increase and takeover by God’s power.

GOD’S INTENTION FOR DOMINION

• God desires that His people dominate and expand their sphere in every area.

• Dominion means increase in influence, authority, and impact.

• The presence of God must never be taken for granted — dominion flows from His presence.
