SEEDS FOR THE JOURNEY

Matthew 13:1-9
Numbers 33:1,2

A journey is a destination you embark on by moving in the direction of your destination.
Life can be likened to a journey.
On the journey of life all sorts of activities take place and adventures happen. We face good times, tough times, happy times, and sometimes frustrating times.
On life's journey there are transactions and business constantly taking place both in the physical and the spiritual dimesions
Genesis 28:12- Spiritual transaction
Matthew 25:14-30
One of the laws that governs life's transaction is the law of seed time and harvest. Genesis 8:22
In life's journey you are never without seed!

The law of seed time and harvest is a very powerful law which God put in place and it and it never fails. Genesis 26:12-14
So, to make the most of life you have to sow your seeds to reap harvests as you journey through life. Galatians 6:7
We can reap ANY kind of harvest we want if we know the right seed to sow. Matthew 5:7
If you want knidness sow kindness.
If you want to succeed, help others succeed.
If you want money, invest in people, especially the poor, and God's ministries. Sow your hard work as a seed to God.
You want to succeed in business? How many people have you helped to succeed in business?
If you want your children to do well in life, pray for other people'schildren and wish them well.If possible, invest in other people's children.
A minister or preacher who wants God to raise partners for His work/ministry should have been or still be a partner to other ministries

What is a seed?
Your seed is anything Godhas given you that can create what you want when you sow it.
Your seeds are important because they determine your harvest.
Your seeds come back to you, multiplied in your future. They never come back the same.
Matthew 13:8
Your harvest is your result or reward for the seeds you've sown.
You have seeds.
Everyday of your life you are sowing seeds, either good seeds or bad seeds. Either knowingly or unknowingly.
Your time, your money, your energy, your patience, your praise,your words, your attitude, your kindness are seeds.
Joseph didn't have much in terms of material possessions ormoney to sowafter he had been sold into slavery by his brothers. But he still had the seed of service. He used his God given abilities and talents well. He sowed service to reap the harvest of promotion and leadership.

A great man or woman is an individual who has sown great seeds over time.
Your seed can be a picture of your future.
Your seed may seem insignificant, but within that seed there is great potential.
That prayer you just made, the thanksgiving you rendered, the kindness you showed, the generousity you displayed may not look like much but God sees it.
Give or sow your seed for God to see it, not necessarily people. Luke 21:1-14
The aim of the seeds we sow and the good we do is for our reward to come from God, not to impress man.Matthew 6:4
May God respect the seeds you sow just like He had respect unto Abel's sacrifice.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
