Farmers have no problem taking something that is dead and planting it in the ground then expecting it to grow. Somehow the farmer knows it will grow, and he doesn’t know how. The farmer doesn’t care how he just expects it to do what dead seeds do after they are planted - grow. That’s what we call faith. After all, how can a dead seed grow? We knoweth not how.
This is our subject for the week. The power of the Kingdom of God is like a seed when planted in a persons life it grows. However like a seed has to be in the right place under the right conditions so does the word of God. You and I are to take every opportunity to speak (sow) into a people but it doesn't stop there. We need to do all that we can do get the person into the right enviroment (church) where the word is preached (sunshine and water). Then we pray and we don't understand how it happens but God causes that seed to grow.
The same process goes to work in other areas. We plant peaches we harvest peaches. We plant tomatoes we get tomatoes. We plant love we get love. We plant helps we get helps. We plant money we get money. We plant discord we reap discord. Therefore it is very important what we go around sowing. Plant what you want to grow in your life. Ask God to give you mercy and a bummer crop in the areas that you have sown what you do not want to harvest.
The Kingdom of heaven is that simply. If we want eternal life we take hold of the seed that was planted over 2000 years ago and confess with our mouths that it was planted for you and I. Then by faith we reap eternal life.
Now start planting today what you want to harvest in both your life and in the lives of others.
