Text: Psalm 126:5-6
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16. Our God is a God of sacrifice. He sacrificed His only begotten son to achieve the global salvation plan.
One major way you can provoke open doors is through sacrificial giving. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him- Psalm 126:5-6
The first seed you must sow sacrificially is the seed of your life. Surrender your life to the Lord today. Jesus Christ said, “For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.” Matthew 16:25
Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit (through obedience to God’s word), from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up- Galatians 6:7-9.
Harvest is certain because the word of God says, “While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” Genesis 8:22.
Sacrifice the seeds of your time, energy and gifts for God’s use; so also the seeds of your financial substance through bountiful offerings, vows, tithes, first fruits, alms etc 2 Corinthians 9:6-11
Prayer Nugget: Father, I ask for the heart of a sacrificial giver in Jesus name.
