How To Plant Your Seed (Part 2)

Happy weekend again everyone,

Yesterday, I looked into how God has given every one of us skills whether in form of talent or gift, from the day we were born, and how these skills are seeds in which we have to plant. I also explained how many have planted these skills in the wrong place and have been frustrated by not seeing anything in return. What I then explained was that the very first thing to do the moment you recognise your skill is to ask the very person who put the skill in you in the first place. Ask Him what He designed the skills for and how we are to accomplish His perfect will for us in fulfilling this. The process of walking with God is to know how to plant your seed. Today, I intend to go a little deeper and continue from where I stopped.

I’m sure many of us have heard of sowing seeds, like money in the life of a man of God or a ministry in order to receive a hundredfold in return, that is, the money you invested. Well, I’m here to tell you that you are limiting yourself if in the long run, it is the money that intends to see an increase in your life as the big thing. Do you really know what planting of a seed really means spiritually?

You must have heard of the prophet’s reward or the righteous man’s reward as Jesus said in Matthew 10:40-42, what did He really mean by that? Let’s look verse 41, “He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.”  There was no mention of money here both in the giving and in the receiving, but what is this reward? Let’s look at the verse before 41 which verse 40, “He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Him who sent Me.” Everything Jesus said while He was here on earth was just about His mission here on earth which was to restore mankind back to God. Verse 40 talks about the carriers of the message of Jesus, those who receive the person are also receiving Jesus into their life, this is the same with the prophet and the righteous man. The reward of the prophet is the ability to receive the anointing the prophet has on himself which would also flow into you. Which means you could also start prophesying.

To receive Christ as Lord, you receive everything in Him, so as the prophet or the righteous man are also in Christ, your actions which is a sign of giving is being invested in their lives and given back to you as the blessing. So, their anointing help opens up that area in your life that is untapped according to the blessing they hold. So, if you think to give to them has to do with finance alone, think again because as you received Christ as Lord into your life, you also received His life of superabundance. The superabundance is an act of believing. Now as you go about doing that which God has called you to do, the superabundance starts manifesting here and there, this is because God doesn’t call someone without taking care of their needs. So, you need to be careful to follow the Holy Spirit so as not to miss out on the strategic locations He has positioned your blessings.

Our aim in giving out in love through sowing seed to a man of God, for example, is appreciating the God in the man, in return you receive the blessing of God through the man, but do not limit yourself to how much God’s blessing would manifest to finance alone because the authority over earth was yours from the moment you received Christ and scarcity ceased in your lives. So, take care of those that God brings your way even little children. Look into others and not yourself because God has already taken care of you, so follow the Holy Spirit and you’ll find out making other lives better make yours better especially when directed and led by the Holy Spirit. This is how you see your seed grow.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
