SOWING RIGHT

Text: Galatians 6:7

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

 *Whether you know it or not, you are always sowing. The question  is; are you sowing right?* 

Your whole life is a seed that is being sown on this side of eternity, and you will reap it either in corruption or life everlasting. May the Lord continually grant you grace to keep sowing to yourself in righteousness in Jesus name. (Hosea 10:12). 

You need to know that every of your word, action and inaction are seeds. Hence, you must be very careful how you sow and what you sow. For instance, Apostle Peter in 1Peter 3:10-11 is instructing us on how we can sow aright in order to reap good days. 

"...He who would love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it.

From the above scripture, you can identify certain  seeds you need to sow in order to reap good life and good days. 

Do you truly love life?
Do you like to see good days? - Then start sowing the following seeds:

1. Refrain your tongue from evil:
Do not speak evil against yourself or others, not even against evil people. Let no evil words proceed from your mouth henceforth.(Proverbs 15:4).

2. Refrain your lips from speaking deceit: Let no deceit or guile be found on your lips. In order words, you must always speak honestly and faithfully. You must put away lies and dishonesty. (Proverbs  12:19).

3. Turn away from evil: While you must  desist from speaking evil, you must also turn away from doing evil. Evil is anything that is void of God and Good, but full of devil and bad. To turn away from evil is to do good and be a follower of that which is good. 

4. Seek Peace and Pursue it: In sowing right seed, you must be a fervent seeker of Peace. You must seek peace with God, and your fellow humans.

Your time here on earth is extremely short as compared to  eternity God has prepared for you, so you must learn to always sow Peace that you may enter into the peace of your God at the end of your sojourn here on earth. (Romans 14:19, Hebrew 12:14).

Bible reading:

James 3:1-13.

PRAYER POINT.

1. Father Lord, give me the grace to daily sow to the Spirit and not to flesh 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 ...

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...
