IN DUE SEASON-3

TEXT: Galatians 6:9

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.* 

Due season is your harvest season. It is your time of manifestation: Keep sowing, keep watering and your due season for harvest will certainly come.

There is a parable of the Chinese bamboo tree, a true story that teaches lessons about patience, faith, perseverance, growth, development and, most importantly, human potential.

The Chinese bamboo tree requires nurturing – water, fertile soil, sunshine- to flourish. In the first year, there are no visible signs of activity or development. In the second year, no growth above the soil. And the third and fourth, still no signs. 

Finally in the fifth year, there is growth.  The Chinese bamboo tree grows 80-90 feet tall (nearly 30 m) in just six weeks! 

This story goes to say that if a farmer gives up on the Chinese bamboo tree, and stops nurturing and watering in the first, second, third or fourth year ; such farmer will never enter into his due season. He would have simply aborted the process before the due time.

Many people have given up on their dreams and purpose simply because they gave up too soon. 

Don't give up, it's not over yet. As long as you've got breath in you, then there is hope. 

Keep hoping, keep giving, keep reaching out, keep loving, keep  endeavouring, keep praying, your season is right on the way!


Your hope will never be dashed as long as its anchor is Jesus. 


Bible Reading: Ecclesiastes 11:1-6


Prayer Focus

1.) Father God,  I receive the grace never to give up in Jesus name.

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 ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
