THE BEST TIME TO SOW IS NOW! YES YOU!

SOWING AND REAPING!
Here is a word for you from the Word.
Galatians 6:7
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.”

There’s a warning against deceiving ourselves, imagining that we can sow one thing in life and reap something different, imagining that we can get away with things that God won’t see, that we won’t be caught up with the consequences of our actions. The Bible warns us this isn’t so. God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

We know this is true in the natural realm. We know that if we plant an orange seed an apple will never grow. We know that if we sow maize, barley will never grow. What we sow is what’s going to come up out of it. So many, however, that see this in the natural don’t realize it’s equally true in the spiritual.

God has made the whole universe with the same principle - that what we sow we reap. If we sow unkindness, we’ll reap unkindness. If we sow selfishness, we’ll reap selfishness. If we sow bitter words, we’ll reap bitter words. But if we sow peace, we’ll reap peace. If we sow love, we’ll reap love. If we sow un-forgiveness, we’ll reap it this time, even from God.
Matthew 6:14-16
14For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

However, If we sow joy, we’ll reap joy. If we sow appreciations, we’ll reap appreciations. If we sow prayers, we’ll reap prayers. If we sow love, we’ll reap love. Loving is giving. Give and you shall receive. When you give, give unto the Lord and give in Love. Many of us have been taught to give. And we give like a debt we owe. But the Scriptures want us to give as a seed we sow with the expectation of a bumper harvest from the Lord.
Luke 6:38Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
Proverbs 19:17He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will He pay him again.
Are you dissatisfied with your life? Are you dissatisfied with the way things are? Remember that what you are reaping is the result of what you have sown. If you want to reap differently, you’ll have to begin to sow differently. God is not mocked. A man reaps what he sows. In this New Year of New Things, start sowing new things towards your New Harvests!
HAPPY NEW YEAR OF SPECTACULAR NEW THINGS
You are special,
