Time to Exercise Dominion

Kim Clement:
"Now is the Time to Exercise Dominion Over the Earth and Discover Its Secrets"

Kim ClementProphets. They are the villains of today and the heroes of tomorrow. They do predict the future, but even more importantly, they deal with the present as it pertains to the future, not the future as it pertains to the present. Prophets prophesy. Prophecy is the voice that God has lent to the silent agony, a voice to the plundered poor, to the profane riches of the world. He sustains us not by bread alone but by the words that proceed out of His mouth.

Over the past few years, I have been driven by the Spirit of the Holy God to look into God's "other door," if you wish. I found myself seeing all kinds of miracles, not divine or supernatural, but rather miracles in the Earth, the soil, and the creatures of the sea. I gazed into this treasure-filled room and realized that my prophetic gift was not necessarily to predict the future only, but to save the future. After prophesying a number of times over the past several years about various cures coming from the Earth, fish, dolphins, etc., I found that my discourse was not in vain, and actually quite Scriptural, to my relief.

Poison in the Pot

"And Elisha returned to Gilgal, and there was a famine in the land. Now the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said to his servant, 'Put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets.' So one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered from it a lapful of wild gourds, and came and sliced them into the pot of stew, though they did not know what they were.

"Then they served it to the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating the stew, that they cried out and said, 'Man of God, there is death in the pot!' And they could not eat it. So he said, 'Then bring some flour.' And he put it into the pot, and said, 'Serve it to the people, that they may eat.' And there was nothing harmful in the pot." 2 Kings 4:38-41

Elisha is with the sons of the prophets and had instructed his servant to "put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets." They gathered herbs and found a wild vine and gathered from it a lapful of wild gourds. (A gourd is a typically large fleshy fruit with a hard skin.) They sliced them into the pot of stew and as they began to eat, they suddenly realized that there was death in the pot. Instead of being nourished, they were eating poison, and instead of Elisha calling 911, he confronted the circumstance with a solution. He never prayed for divine healing, but instead he said, "Bring some flour" and he put it into the pot and there was nothing harmful left in the pot. God showed Elisha where to combat or negate the poison in the pot.

I got excited as I read this and realized that he had created a formula to combat the death and poison, and I believe that this is part and parcel of the prophetic mantle. I believe we have entered into this era again and this aspect of prophetic insight is about to be restored to the world.

Subdue the Earth

Earth. We live on it, feed off it, are nurtured by it and basically, we are alive because of this big round ball, and yet some people have no expectations from it other than disasters and judgment. I speak of a large percentage of Charismatic Christians, or those with extreme religious persuasions. If we show the slightest interest in the preservation, upkeep or nurturing of the Earth, we are labeled as "new age believers," whatever that's supposed to mean. The Earth is home to millions of species, including humans, and is the only place in the universe where life is known to exist.

Since the very moment that life appeared on its surface, Earth's biosphere has significantly altered the atmosphere and other abiotic conditions on the planet, enabling the proliferation of aerobic organisms, as well as the formation of the ozone layer, which together with the Earth's magnetic field, blocks harmful radiation, permitting life on land. Most importantly is the fact that the Earth is the third planet from the Sun and is the largest of the terrestrial planets in the Solar System, in diameter, mass and density.

"Then God blessed them, and God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.'" Genesis 1:28

I love Earth. I have great expectations from it and according to my Gospel, I am expected to fill the Earth, have dominion over ALL of it, subdue it, have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and every living thing that moves on the Earth. How do you have dominion over fish? To take a net and catch fish or to take a gun and shoot a bird is NOT having dominion over them. If I follow Christ and how He dealt with the Earth and all it's moving parts, I realize that the dominion God was speaking about was for our betterment and to use in combat. Most people can't even imagine that mankind would have this power but it's the truth.

From the Fishes Mouth

Can a fish bring healing? Apparently, it can. Fish oil is derived from the tissues of oily fish. Fish oil is now recommended for a healthy diet because it contains the omega-3 fatty acids and various acids that reduce inflammation throughout the body. Oddly enough, fish do not actually produce omega-3 acids, but instead they accumulate them by consuming micro-algae that produce these fatty acids. Even these fish, that we obtain this beneficial medicine from, play their part in "subduing" other fish like mackerel, lake trout, flounder and salmon, all in God's original pronouncement of "dominion."

In September 2005, a study from the Louisiana State University found that fish oil assisted in protecting the brain from cognitive problems associated with Alzheimer's disease. A study from the Orygen Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia suggests that omega-3 fatty acids could also help prevent or delay the onset of schizophrenia.

My point is that the living creatures of the Earth have more inside of them than a delicious meal. Over the past 3 years, I have been prophesying about the fact that there would be radical cures for Alzheimer's disease, brain disorders, various forms of cancer, Aids and other crippling diseases. Coupled with these prophetic statements were puzzling things like, "look to the sea, the whales, dolphins, etc." God was sharing with me the fact that I was to reveal the deep secrets of His original plan, which is for us to TAKE dominion and subdue.

Jesus used this power to assist in the payment of taxes. Instead of the fish being a meal, it was now a completely different instrument - a mini bank. Read what happened, dear warriors. Jesus said Peter, "Go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a silver coin. Take it to the officials and give it to them for My tax and yours."

I enjoy reading this because you will notice that Peter was the one who threw his line out for the fish and it was Peter's taxes that were taken care of—no one else's. Many of my prophetic words have been about the Earth yielding its produce to us, as opposed to God dropping it from Heaven. Recently in Houston, Texas, God uttered something through my mouth regarding a fascinating healing secret. Because I went ahead and prophesied it, something that has been uncovered will now be discovered.

Healing from Berries

Prophesied on December 14, 2008, in Humble, Texas:

"And they shall say, 'Do not touch this plant, it is poisonous; it contains a deadly poison.'" And God said, "They shall say, 'You cannot eat that; you cannot consume it.' But that which once brought death by consumption will actually bring life and energy," says the Spirit of God. "For a plant - for it shall come from a soil - that a thing that would kill the human being, in a tree," God said, "so it shall bring a cure to many cancers," says the Spirit of God. Why would I tell you this?

"For it is time for the prophets to get above all of these fears and all of these commandments that they give. My prophets must begin to prophesy the cures that will come to the human bodies. My prophets must prophesy the cures that must come," for God said, "did I not tell you to go and cleanse the leper? There is leprosy out there. Alzheimer's disease is leprosy," says the Spirit of God.

"I command you to cleanse the lepers. And therefore the prophets will prophesy that from the earth shall come healings, and it shall begin to manifest. Even though some of those have already happened, the next year I will show you great things, because a revival of healing from the earth shall take place," says the Lord. "A revival of the healing from the earth shall take place!" Now berries, these are berries, berries - poisonous - shall bring healing.

Berries? Yes, berries. Could it be that simple? Think about penicillin. On September 28, 1928, Dr. Fleming was at his laboratory in the basement of St. Mary's Hospital in London, where he noticed a halo of inhibition of bacterial growth around a contaminant blue-green mold and concluded the mold was releasing a substance that was inhibiting bacterial growth. It was the Penicillium mold. Today there is family that came from Penicillin; ampicillin, flucloxacillin, diclosacillin and methicillin. So when various strains of infections emerged, other forms of penicillin were developed.

I am trying to show you that one discovery can do more than simply cure one disease; it can also develop and combat other emerging forces.

The Earth has all We Need for Healing, Energy and Prosperity

Why we find it "strange" that God would be directing me and other prophets in the Kingdom of Heaven—to speak to the Earth and the sky—is incomprehensible. Jesus spoke to the wind and the water and it obeyed. Water is for the purpose of drinking to quench thirst and has many healing agencies in it. Of all things, nobody expected Christ to turn it into wine for another purpose altogether - a wedding celebration!

Today, scientists have not only suggested, but also proven, that red wine has healing agencies. Although excessive alcohol consumption has adverse health effects, epidemiological studies have consistently demonstrated that moderate consumption of wine is statistically associated with a reduced risk of death due to cardiovascular events such as heart failure. Red wine contains polyphenols, and these are particularly protective against cardiovascular disease. A chemical in red wine called resveratrol has been shown to have both cardio-protective and chemo-protective effects. One study concluded that wine made from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape reduces the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Again, excessive consumption has adverse health and mental effects and the reason for my writing this is to make a very valid point.

The Church excessively condemns certain "sins," while blatantly excusing other "sins." Gluttony and obesity are ignored, while healthy consumption of wine is condemned. Jesus knew what He was doing when He turned the water into wine. He would never feed human beings something that was in fact sinful and harmful. The problem is not what the soil produces, but our addictions and lack of control. Is eating bread with mayonnaise wrong? NO. The wrong happens when greed takes over and instead of enjoying one slice with a small portion, you eat five thick slices. I think you understand.

Jesus Christ spoke to the tree, to the wind and water and spoke of signs in the skies. He took a few loaves of bread and multiplied them to feed thousands. My conviction is that the Earth has all that we need for healing, energy and our prosperity, but it is waiting to uncover its treasures. We, as a people, have the power of the Word and His Spirit to guide us to discover these hidden treasures. I am excited about the future of America and the many Nations who are pressing forward and demanding a demonstration of power and dominion from the Believers. Now is the time. It's time for us to exercise dominion over the Earth and discover the secrets He has placed in it from the beginning of creation.

We must begin to offer solutions rather than allowing ourselves to remain a part of the problem. As God's prophets, we must not only see the unseen, but also guide a generation to the hidden cures and solutions He has already provided for us, even within creation. It's great to pray for someone and see God miraculously heal their body, but how much greater is it when He shares a secret that leads to a scientific discovery or a medical breakthrough that completely eliminates an incurable disease so that mankind never has to be effected by it again?

These kinds of Kingdom breakthroughs are of infinite value, fulfilling God's command to take authority and dominion over the Earth, and establishing new standards of quality of life that would have been impossible otherwise. Don't let anyone rob you of these great promises He has given us.

This year we are anticipating many great marvels to come from the sea, the soil, the living creatures and the skies that will impact medical science, energy, and many other areas of the world we live in. Let us together enjoy what the spring season is soon to bring.
