Summary: Applying the timeless idea of sowing and reaping can transform our lives and our finances.
Main Ideas:
Four lessons from the harvest:
Lesson #1 – The Harvest is Proportional to the Sowing. (Comparison)
Lesson #2 – The Harvest Comes Later than the Sowing. (Anticipation)
Lesson #3 – The Harvest is Greater than the Sowing. (Multiplication)
- What you reap will always come back greater than what you sow.
- If you never plant it, God can’t multiply it.
- God Can’t Multiply What You Haven’t Sown!
- It’s only as you put what you have in the hands of Jesus that it’s multiplied.
Lesson #4 – The Harvest is Determined by the Sowing. (Replication)
We are Harvesting Today what we Planted Yesterday.
We can’t do anything about what we are reaping today, but we can change what we may reap tomorrow!
