Text: Psalm 126:5-6
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
A third law of harvest we will be considering today states that, ‘The harvest is always more than the seed sown.’ Hosea 8:7 says, anyone who sows the wind would reap the whirlwind. There is a popular quote which is something for us to think about:
“Sow a thought, reap an act;
Sow an act, reap a habit;
Sow a habit, reap a character;
Sow a character, reap a destiny.”
The fourth harvest law says, “They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.” Psalm 126:5-6. Sowing comes with pain. It is always sacrificial; never convenient. David understood that where there is no pain, there is no gain. You don’t give to God what costs you nothing. 2 Samuel 24:24
Our salvation cost God the life of His only begotten Son. John 3:16. It was painful, but God did it. The result is the everlasting harvest of souls into His heavenly kingdom.
Fifthly, another law of harvest says, “You reap in the proportion that you sow.” Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. 2 Corinthians 9:6. Whoever sows little will reap more than he has sown but not as much as someone who sows generously.
Therefore, be careful what you sow and how you sow.
Prophetic Nugget: Receive grace to take advantage of the harvest laws in Jesus name.
