9/7/2010 - II Cor. 9:6 The Value of Planting Generously

Posted in Unspecified

SCRIPTURE: II Cor. 9:6 Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop.

OBSERVATION: My part, as one of God's farmers, is to plant many seeds. The harvest is in relationship to how many seeds I plant not what I do to make the seed sprout and grow--that is God's job. My job is to merely plant--lots of seed.

APPLICATION: I must always remember, it is not my job to bring about results, it is my job to plant many good seeds, in people (both Christian and non), in leaders (including staff members), in my family, in my wife. If I "seed" them generously, I will get a result.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to remember this truth. Show me when and how to plant into others lives. Help me to be generous with the seed.
