Maximum Fruitfulness is God’s perfect will for every child
of His, and it represents maximum productivity. According to the Law of first
mention in Bible interpretation; fruitfulness was first mentioned in Gen 1:28 and
it was Gods first command to man after He completed His work of creation. Regardless
of your sex, age or race; fruitfulness in life is a must, and it is possible as
long as you remain in God, by seeking Him with all your heart and obeying Him (John 15:5-7).
It is the will of God that His children walk in multi-dimensional fruitfulness.
That is fruitfulness mentally, spiritually and in character.
Maximum Fruitfulness means maximizing one’s potential and it's achieved as one grows in their vertical relationship (with God) and horizontal relationship (with men). The word potential can be defined as non-utilized or underutilized abilities or skills. For example there was a lot of hidden potential in the Garden of Eden; there were hidden airplanes, iPads, computers etc. It took work for all those potentials in the garden to be realized. It is important to note that Maximum fruitfulness can only be attained through maximum growth.

In Matt 3:1-23 Jesus uses the parable of the sower to
illustrate maximum fruitfulness. He talks about a sower who went to scatter seed,
and the four different places the seeds fell; Path, Rocky ground, Thorns and Good
Soil. Jesus further explains the meaning of the parable as follows. Path: That the seed that fell by the Path or wayside refers to, “when
anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the
evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in their heart.” Rocky ground: “The seed falling on
rocky ground refers to someone who hears the word and at once receives it with
joy. But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When
trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away (20-21).
Thorns: “The seed falling among the
thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the
deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, making it unfruitful. Good Soil: “But the seed falling on
good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the
one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was
sown.” Where do you find yourself? Today can your heart be likened to Path,
Rocky ground, Thorns or Good Soil? The key is understanding, and understanding
spiritual truths takes place in one's heart or spirit, as they hunger for God
and His Word (Proverbs 2:2, Proverbs 4:7) How hungry are you for God’s word today? That
will determine what your heart can be likened to.
Understanding and obedience to the Word of God is the master
key to maximum fruitfulness or a hundred fold increase. You can't realize the maximum potential of any product without the manufacturer's manual. There is no alternative
to obedience to God’s word in the Kingdom of God. God has already spoken and
still speaks through His Word now. In times past He spoke through the prophets but
now through His son Jesus Christ (the Word of God), the exact representation of
His Image (Hebrews 1). Most importantly, now in this dispensation of the Holy Spirit a Christian
is empowered not only to speak the word of God but more importantly live it.
The ultimate power in God’s word comes through our obedience to it. Righteousness
elevates, in the kingdom of God we rule through righteousness. Simply put obedience
to God’s word daily is the key to maximum Fruitfulness.
God has placed gifts in you in the form of seeds, may your gifts
make a way and take you before great men as you obey God’s word. Don’t despise
your gifts, today may you realize your uniqueness and use your gifts to the
best of your abilities. There are places that your gift will take you that a nothing
else will. There is no alternative for obedience and righteousness, go and work
towards a hundred fold increase, don’t settle for a thirty fold increase, maximize
your potential in Jesus name, the world is waiting for your manifestation.
