Topic: More Than Just Sowing And Reaping
Luke 6:38 says, “Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. With the same measure that ye mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.”
Text: Luke 6:17-49
This verse reveals one of God’s cardinal laws that will work in the spiritual realm and the physical world. Just as we “give” seed into the ground to receive back multiple seeds, it is with everything we give. Whether it’s money, possessions, an emotion such as love or hate, prayers, or our time, we will reap a harvest of whatever we give. We reap exactly what we sow and proportional to the same measure we offer (Gal. 6:7-8).
“He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully” (2 Cor. 9:6). This law works on positive or negative things that we sow.
Although this is an unchangeable law of God, it can be overcome by a more significant law in much the same way that we can escape the law of gravity by using the more important rules of thrust and lift. The negative things we have given don’t have to come back to us if we apply the more excellent law of forgiveness (1 Jn. 1:9). Likewise, the good things we have sown can be voided if we don’t continue in well-doing (Gal. 6:9).
God is our source, but God uses people. If we pray for finances, God will not make counterfeit currency and put it into our wallets. He will use people to get the money to you. So, it is not always as simple as praying for money and receiving it the next minute. We need to believe the Lord hears and answers our prayers and then pray for the people He will use to deliver the answer. This could mean any number of people, such as our employer and those who buy our goods. Ultimately God is your source, trust Him.
