“Reaping a Harvest”
Let us not
become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we
do not give up. Galatians 6:9
The Apostle
Paul was encouraging the Galatian churches to not lose heart, and become WEARY
in doing good to all people, and especially to those who were a part of the
family of God, the TRUE BELIEVERS. Paul
wanted the people to know that no matter how long it took to see the results of
sowing the seeds of goodness, it would be worth the TIME and EFFORT, because
they would REAP a HARVEST. He urged them
to NOT GIVE UP!
This HARVEST
would come at the PROPER TIME, which would be God’s time. When a farmer plants seeds, he spends a lot
of TIME and EFFORT to ensure a GOOD HARVEST.
So it is with SPIRITUAL PLANTING, it can take a long time to see the
HARVEST. So you should NOT become weary
in doing good.
One very
important thing to REMEMBER, is when a person sows to please the Spirit, from
the Spirit they will reap ETERNAL LIFE. (v 8)
Whenever, we witness to others, we are PLANTING seeds of the Spirit, and
sometimes it is someone else who will provide the WATER, the Word of God, and
maybe even another person that will do the REAPING, or bringing the lost one to
SALVATION and ETERNAL LIFE in Heaven.
Nevertheless, we ALL NEED to be PLANTING, and NOT become weary in doing
good, in order to REAP a HARVEST of souls.
Are you
planting seeds that would PLEASE your FLESH or seeds that will PLEASE the
SPIRIT? If you are planting seeds to PLEASE
your FLESH, you will REAP DESTRUCTION.
However, if you will TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and TURN TO
God, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, He will FORGIVE your sins. But you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART
that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you,
before God. Then you MUST ACCEPT God’s
gift of SALVATION and start PLANTING seeds to PLEASE the SPIRIT, and REAP a
HARVEST of souls for an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN.
Do this NOW, while you still can. He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
