DON'T BE DECEIVED 2


 *Text ;* Galatians  6:7  


 *Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.* 


Yesterday, we looked at deception from the angle of self-deception  in relations to the kind of association we keep. 

Today, we shall be looking at deception as it relates to sowing and reaping.


Isn't it amazing how man expects to reap something different from what he sows. In agriculture, you don't expect to reap mango from orange tree. The same law applies in life generally. 


Jesus said in Luke 6:44 that every tree is known by its own fruit. People don’t gather figs from thorny plants or pick grapes from a thorn bush. Trees produce after its kind. That is, your harvest is precipitated on the kind of seed you have sown.


 *Each day is an opportunity to sow a good seed that will count for you in eternity.* 


Now, when people hear about sowing and reaping, the first thing that comes to mind is money. Yes, money could be sown but it's just one item out of many things that could and should be sown.


If you want to reap love, sow love. If you want kindness, sow same. Whatever you desire to harvest, start to sow it now.


If you want your daughter or son in law to treat you well, see to it that you treat your mother or father in law well. Some things only answer to principles and not prayers. The principle of sowing and reaping is one that even God cannot ignore.


 *Don't be deceived,  you will reap what you sow, so pay attention to your seed.* 


 *For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.* Gal 6:8.



 *BIBLE READING* : 


Gal  6:7-8.


 *PRAYER FOCUS* 


1. Father, please give me the grace to consciously sow seed of good works that I might reap bountiful harvest of goodness.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
