The Law Of Sowing And Reaping Pt. 2

Let’s go back and starting with vs. 7 in the New English Bible. God loves a cheerful giver. And it is in God’s power to provide you richly with every good gift; thus you will have ample means in yourself to meet each and every situation, with enough to spare for every good cause. Glory to God, what a way to live, to be in a constant state of being a blessing and being blessed in the process. I don’t know about you but that is the way I want to live, to always have enough to help out my brothers and sisters in Christ and to sow wherever God would direct me and to have plenty left over. I can honestly say I haven’t gotten to the level I want to be, but I am working on it. This is not a get rich scheme but a way of life that God has ordained in His Word. I believe many of us have never looked at this message in this light, but it’s time to see the light of God’s Word and begin to walk in it. There is always balance in the things of God, we must keep first things first.

Matthew 6:33 "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

There is truly a great harvest out there and it is going to take dedicated children of God who know their purpose and know God’s Word in order to fulfill God’s plan in these last days.

We have freely been given all things… (1Cor:2:12) (Rom:8:32).

Because of this we can in turn, turn around and give to others. We are blessed to be a blessing. This is an act of faith in God and His Word. We can give knowing that with what we have purposed to give, it will be given back to us. Some sow and others may do the reaping but you always sow for the harvest. You always harvest for a purpose. What would be the purpose of a great harvest if you could not use it to feed the multitudes. It would be nothing but a waste.

This is something that you have to prepare for. Let’s go back to our example of the 1000 acres of soybeans. After all this work the farmer harvests his crop, he must have a place to store the crop until it is sent to the market or wherever it goes for processing. Since soybeans are used for many food applications, there would be several places for the harvest to be sent. In the meantime you have to have a place to store what you have harvested. If you know the approximate total volume of soybeans you are going to harvest then you would have to have at least that much storage space, weather it be in silo’s or barns. You wouldn’t harvest 1000 acres of soybeans then only have enough space to store 100 acres worth of soybeans would you, not if you were a good steward of your farm. That would be a tremendous waste wouldn’t it? Not only of time and energy but of the whole purpose of sowing in the first place, and that being the harvest. God wants us to be good stewards of the seed He has given us. He wants us to have a great harvest so that we can build up his kingdom.

Deuteronomy 8:18 You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth; that he may confirm his covenant which he swore to your fathers, as at this day.
