Seed = Harvest
Galatians 6:7 “Make no mistake: God can’t be mocked. What you give is what you get. What you sow, you harvest.“ (The Voice)
The Word of God cannot be broken. The scriptures cannot be broken. It is not too late with God. Someone said to me, “With all I have done, can God forgive me, Pastor? Is it possible?” I said to him, “The question is not can God forgive you, the question is can you repent?” He said, “Yes, I am ready to repent.” I said, “Then God can forgive you because God’s mercies are everlasting.” Read the rest of this entry
Land Matters
Deuteronomy 28:12 “The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.” (KJV, emphasis added).
The purpose of the rain, primarily, is the land. However, the land requires work. The land does not require argument, speculation, or infinite analysis. Read the rest of this entry
The Handshake
Philippians 3:1 “…To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.” (KJV).
God wants us to understand interconnected systems, and we would again go back to the gear system to explain this concept. Read the rest of this entry
Synergy
Job 36:26-28 “Look, God is greater than we can understand. His years cannot be counted. He draws up the water vapor and then distils it into rain. The rain pours down from the clouds, and everyone benefits.” (KJV).
Our anchor scripture describes the water cycle, and it is a system that God has put in place. Water from the Sea evaporates, then condenses, and returns to the earth as precipitation (rain). Read the rest of this entry
In Season
Deuteronomy 28:12 “The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.” (KJV)
Joel 2:23-25 “Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil. And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” (KJV, emphasis added).

Deep Dive
Philippians 3:1 “Further, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you.” (NIV, emphasis added).
Over the next few days, we are going to, by the grace of God, distil things further and trust that God will give us understanding in the Name of Jesus. Read the rest of this entry
Even You
Deuteronomy 11:14 “then he will send the rains in their proper seasons—the early and late rains—so you can bring in your harvests of grain, new wine, and olive oil.”
The nation of Israel had experienced a lot of droughts because of their sin. Usually, the latter rain comes in Spring, about four to six months after the fertilizing rain (former rain). But God is kind. Read the rest of this entry
The Rain = Former + Latter
Joel 2:23 “People of Zion, shout with joy and happiness in the Eternal, your God; The drought is over; He has sent the early autumn rain as a sign of His faithfulness. He has poured down heavy rain, autumn and spring, as before.” (The Voice)
Matthew 13:24-25 “Here is another story Jesus told: “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a farmer who planted good seed in his field. But that night as the workers slept, his enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat, then slipped away.” Read the rest of this entry
Hold On!
Revelation 3:11 “I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Do not let anybody steal your crown. Acts 3:6 “But Peter said, “I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!” You can only give what you have. Read the rest of this entry
Separation
Isaiah 55:10 “Rain and snow fall from the sky and don’t return until they have watered the ground. Then the ground causes the plants to sprout and grow, and they produce seeds for the farmer and food for people to eat.” (ERV).
What is going on here? If the land is good, tilled, and you have ploughed yourself in righteousness, when it rains on the land, what sprouts is dependent on what is in the land. If what is in the land is weeds, what will sprout? Read the rest of this entry
