When
you sow apple seeds, you get apples. When you sow seeds of friendship, you get
friends. If in the natural, you receive in the area in which you sow, how much
more will you receive in the supernatural when God blesses you!
The
Bible tells us that when Isaac sowed in the land, he reaped a hundredfold even
though there was a famine in that land (see Genesis 26:1). The reason was that
“the Lord blessed him.”
So
if you are believing God for a breakthrough in a particular area, sow in that
area. A brother wrote a note to me at a conference I was preaching at in
London. He shared with me how he was one of only two employees promoted in his
department and given a substantial increase in his salary despite the economic
downturn in England and retrenchment exercise at his workplace. The sum of his
salary was "more than 10 times" what he had sowed into God's kingdom
at the same conference the year before. It could only be the Lord blessing him.
And He “is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think”
(Ephesians 3:20).
Whatever
money or time you give to the Lord, He will multiply it back to you. For
example, you have 24 hours a day like everyone else, but the Lord can make your
day very fruitful. And even after doing all that needs to be done, you will
find that you still have time left to rest.
Even
when you have nothing to give but prayers, your prayers will not return to you
void. God can answer them exceedingly above what you have asked. When Job lost
everything that he possessed, he prayed for his friends, and the Lord not only
restored his losses, but He also “gave Job twice as much as he had before” (Job
42:10).
So start sowing seeds in the area that you are believing God for, and know that before long, you will be reaping your harvest! (Article & Picture; courtesy of Joseph Prince Ministries used with kind permission).
