Increase:

To make greater. See Genesis 26:12-14 KJV

God is a God of Increase.
God wants you to experience an increase. The increase was in God’s plan from the very beginning. Genesis 1:26-28; 2 Samuel 12:7-8; 2 Chronicles 25:6-9; Act’s 2:47; John 10:10

God wants to Increase you.
It is God’s desire to increase His children by making them more fruitful and increasing their productivity. John 10:10; Psalm 115:12-15; 3 John 2; Genesis 28:1-4

Believe the Word of Increase:
Faith is the foundation for all increases in the kingdom of God. Mark 9:23; Matthew 17:20; 21:21-22; Psalm 35:27; Deuteronomy 1:10-11; Isaiah 60:22; Joshua 23:10

Expect Increase.
In life, you get what you expect. Train yourself to become conscious of the increase. Become increased conscious. Become a pathological optimist. See Numbers 14:6-9; Joshua 14:6-12; Proverbs 24:13-14; Philippians 1:19

Have a Vision for Increase.
The measure of your vision is what determines the boundaries of your possession. Your inner vision decides your lot in life. See Genesis 13:14-17; Jeremiah 1:11-12. See yourself increasing. Imagine yourself successful.

Create a Nurturing Environment for the Manifestation of Your Vision:
I. See your vision every day. See Proverbs 4:21
II. Read your vision every day. See Proverbs 4:21; Habakkuk 2:2
III. Meditate on your vision every day. See Joshua 1:8; 1 Timothy 4:15
IV. Speak it every day. See Romans 4:17
V. Associate with people who reinforce your vision. See Acts 16:9-10
VI. Avoid strife and people who encourage strife. See James 3:16; 1 John 2:9-11

Confess Increase.
Don’t talk about lack and want. What you confess, you will eventually possess. If you speak it, you will see it. See Mark 11:23; Matthew 21:21; Isaiah 57:19; Matthew 12:33-37.

Prioritize for Increase.
Your priorities determine your prosperity. What you do first, decides what God does next. See 1 Kings 17:8-16; Matthew 6:33; Isaiah 1:19; 2 Chronicles 26:5; 30:20-21; Psalm 34:9-10; 84:11; 1 Chronicles 16:29; 1 Samuel 2:30; Ephesians 6:2-3; Exodus 20:12; Deuteronomy 5:16; Malachi 1:6-2:2; Proverbs 3:9-10; Romans 11:16. Obedience leads to supernatural increase and harvest. See Job 36:11; Isaiah 1:19; 2 Kings 4:1-7; 42-44

Partner for Increase.
Two are better than one. Intelligently connect with people who will facilitate your progress. See Ecclesiastes 4:9; Matthew 18:19-20; Deuteronomy 32:30; Leviticus 26:8; Proverbs 13:20; 19:17; 22:9; Philippians 1:5-7; 4:14-19; Mark 10:29-30; 2 Kings 4:8-17;

Pray for an increase.
Prayer opens the door to the realm of more. God expects us to demand what we want from him. See Jeremiah 33:3; John 16:23-24; Ephesians 3:20; Philippians 4:19

Praise for Increase.
Praise is an increase facilitator. Those who praise God experience unhindered progress. See Psalm 67:5-7; 2 Chronicles 20:20-28

Sow for Increase:
Sowing or Giving is one of the ways to facilitate an increase in every area of our lives. See Luke 6:38; Proverbs 11:24-25; Malachi 3:10-12; Acts 20:35

Grow For Increase:
When you enlarge your capacity through personal growth and development, you facilitate the speed of your increase. See Galatians 4:1-2 KJV; Luke 1:80; 2:52; 1 Corinthians 13:11; 14:20 NLT

Serve For Increase:
God blesses us when we serve. There are tremendous benefits in service. See Exodus 23:25-26; Job 36:11; John 12:26

Cooperate with the Spirit of Increase:
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Increase. Without the Holy Spirit, there can be no increase. See Isaiah 32:15; Zechariah 10:1; Acts 9:31; Isaiah 48:15-19. Those who fellowship with the Holy Spirit enjoy fruitfulness.

Pruned for Increase:
Seasons of fruitfulness are preceded by times of pruning. The more we are pruned, the more fruitful we become. See John 15:1-8; 12:24; Romans 12:1; 2 Timothy 2:19-21. We have to yield to consistent pruning again and again to enjoy unending seasons of fruitfulness.
