Greetings,
God firmly believes in the law of sowing and reaping. After all, He established it as an irrevocable law of the universe. This principle is most often associated with giving, but it involves much more. It’s actually true about EVERYTHING we do!
Psalm 126:5-6 (NKJV) – “Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. [6] He who continually goes forth weeping, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.”
Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. When you go forth, bearing precious seed, you will doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing your sheaves (harvest) with you!
What does that mean? It means whatever you sow—effort, time, sacrifice, or resources—will be rewarded. The only requirement is to plant the seed in good soil. So, if you do your best and are careful to invest, God will see that you reap a harvest!
Sow into your marriage… sow into your children’s future … sow into soul-winning…sow by showing kindness and giving mercy…sow into the Kingdom of God. All of this is good soil. You will definitely reap a much greater harvest if your seed is planted in productive soil. Think about this one … if you sow with tears, you’ll reap with laughter!
Father, I believe the principles found in Your Word. Your Word is Truth. Help me be a sower. I want to sow into the fertile soil of vital relationships, by being kind and merciful to everyone. I want to forgive others as You have forgiven me. My desire is to sow my time where it counts, to give myself to what truly matters and yes, to sow even financially. You are the Lord of the Harvest.
Today, I’m worshiping with Donald Lawrence and “Seasons.”
We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
Pastor
