COVENANT is an agreement between two or more parties. A COVENANT is a deal bound or sealed with some terms and conditions.
The COVENANT of FRUITFULNESS is an agreement between man and God sealed by the terms dictated by God. These terms are non-negotiable. Our major responsibility is to play our part of the deal in order to enjoy the benefits of the covenant.
Understand that God is a commander, that’s the way He operates.
Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them. [12] Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the Lord thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers: [13] And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee. [14] Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle. (Deu.7:11-14)
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE COVENANT OF FRUITFULNESS?

All these blessings have their roots in that Deu.7:11-14 that I shared earlier.
Now, How Can I Be Fruitful in All Departments of my Life?
You need to get drunk with some wines before you can experience all round fruitfulness.
What are the wines?
The wine of Love – For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.(1Jn.5:3).
OBEDIENCE is the capital proof of our love for God (See also John. 14:21).
Lions are not the greatest animals. Sheep are the greatest. According to PSM.34:10, the lions can be in hunger. But the sheep will never have to fend for themselves.
But the sad thing is that we are in a generation of arrogant people.
Many believe that they can rely on what they have in their heads and cope with the challenges of lives.
Revelation is superior to education. That does not mean that education is bad. But those who have education will also need revelation in order to live a triumphant life.
All round FRUITFULNESS is a function of delightful obedience to scriptural injunctions. Understand that God is not a Father Christmas or Santa Claus (there is no valuable thing that is for free). There is a responsibility to carry. There is a price to pay.
God is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him. Mark the word diligently.
Those who called themselves Christians today passively seek God and expect FRUITFULNESS to manifest in their lives. No wonder they are affected by the same devilish intimidations that affect the unbelievers. It’s a pity that there is no clear distinct between the believers and unbelievers.
And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: [2] And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. [3] Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. (Deu.28:1-3)
(2).The Wine of Righteousness – The journey of our FRUITFULNESS begins with Righteousness. Righteousness is the hall mark of a fruitful man. Are you interested in all round FRUITFULNESS? If yes, check the level of your fear for God(Righteousness).
“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.” (Psalm.92:12)
You can’t beat them by joining them. Or else you will remain under them. Stand to be different.
YOUR FRUITFULNESS WILL NOT STAND THE TEST OF TIME WITHOUT DEMARCATION.
CHRISTIANITY WITHOUT DEMARCATION IS A IRRESPONSIBLE OF A CHRISTIAN.
(Also see Job.1-1-3, & Psalm 1)
Daniel purposed in his heart that he will not defiled himself with the portion of the King’s meat(Dan.1:8). No wonder he became great and productive. He served 6 kingdoms. Daniel became relevant in the time of Cyrus, Darius, Nebuchadnezzar, Jehoiakim, Belshazzar of Babylon, and Nabonidus of Babylon
A genuine Godly man and woman can never be grounded in life.
Life is all about the choices we make. Choose to be different!
(3).The wine of Faith – The wine of faith won’t keep you waiting. It gets you into motion. It makes you to test your options. To see what you are really called to do in life ( but so sad that many are doing what they are not called to do).
Faith makes you lay off whatsoever is not your calling. And move on.
In Summary, Fruitfulness means:
(1). Producing good results; beneficial; profitable.
(2). Producing abundant growth, as of fruit: fruitful soil; fruitful rain. Related words: Abundance, productivity, and productiveness.
For you to be fruitful you must be intoxicated with the wines of: Love, Righteousness and Faith.
