Title: The act or process of gathering in a crop    
  
  
  
  

   

  
  
  
  


Harvest is what results from seed planting, tilling, watering and weeding.   It may or may not be Reaped.   God planted His Son in the earth.   The harvest comes from His provision.   The Word speaks to that provision.   The holy Spirit empowers us to receive that provision.   
While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
This verse speaks to the fact that Climate Change is outside the purview of mankind.     It is not part of the dominion that the Creator handed to man in .     

And they of Bethshemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.

He that gathers in summer is a wise son: but he that sleeps in harvest is a son that causes shame.

Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray you therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
Every person should hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ so there is work to do.

And herein is that saying true, One sows, and another reaps.

Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teaches in all good things.
We ought to edify others as others have edified us.

Be not deceived; The Lord is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.
The Law of Sowing And Reaping is immutable.     It will play out in every situation.     

To Sow evil seed (sin) is foolish resulting in destruction and death .     

Use the Law of of Sowing And Reaping to your advantage by sowing good seed bountifully .     

Sin has consequences - even though they are forgiven.     This is a hard concept for many believers to grasp.     

The Lord is not angry but when we violate His Word, there are negative consequences.     

Thankfully, when we keep His Word we experience the blessing.

For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Holy Spirit shall of the Holy Spirit reap life everlasting.
The Spiritual Law of Sowing And Reaping is immutable as are all the Lord's laws.     

On the one hand they effect the Lord's love and Grace while on the other hand they effect the Lord's wrath and judgment.     

The fruit of the flesh is corruption.     The fruit of the Spirit is Eternal Life and Abundant Life.

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
We can get discouraged when we don't see the results we want, but it is the Lord that gives the increase and He will in due time.

As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
Be a blessing to all men in all situations.

And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in your sickle, and reap: for the time is come for you to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
The order comes from the Lord through His messenger to reap the earth.

Barry Bennett: Where is your harvest?   

When we speak of sowing and reaping some take a very narrow view and expect a mathematical equation to be activated on their behalf in their finances.   When the ‘100 fold return’ doesn’t materialize in their bank account, many get discouraged and even bitter.   The problem has nothing to do with sowing and reaping but rather in the lack of understanding of how to recognize a harvest.   

All Believers have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places ().    However, it is obvious that not all believers are enjoying the abundance of God’s blessings.   There is a disconnect between what is available and what is experienced.   

Sowing and reaping is simply God’s way of getting His blessings into your life.   It would be like the electricity in your house.   It is there waiting to be used, but unless you plug in an appliance or turn on a switch, the electricity won’t manifest its benefit to you.   

In the kingdom, it is the life of Christ, righteousness, love and faith that represent our sowing.   Sowing can be seen through our kindness, service, forgiving, loving, blessing and giving.   Sowing involves using our gifts to bless others and solve problems.   

Sowing is using everything God has given us to bless those around us.   It is a lifestyle that manifests God’s love to us, through us and toward others.   

Your Harvest is every good thing God brings into your life.   Your harvest is new relationships, open doors of opportunity, favor, health, protection, wisdom, revelation, the gifts of the Spirit flowing through you, resources and blessings.   Your harvest is a multiplication of God’s goodness to you as it flows through you to others.   

We often don’t recognize our harvests or take them for granted.   A harvest can be a phone call that opens the door to an opportunity that will change your life.   

Your Harvest can be a divine encounter with someone who may later be part of an incredible blessing to your family.   Your harvest may be an escape from tragedy or death that you might not even be aware of.   Your harvest may be an idea that comes to you in the night that solves a problem.   

All of these opportunities and blessings are available to all of God’s children, but they are multiplied to the sower.   Jesus taught that when we are faithful in what we have been given, we will be given more.   When we bless others, we create an environment of blessing for ourselves.   

As we sow God’s Grace to others, we should expect increase in our lives in every area.   Everything in God’s kingdom is designed for increase.   Every thought seed, Word seed, action seed and giving seed carries the Grace within for increase.   

The more we give, the more we see increase.   

Give thanks for your harvests!   Jesus had a need to feed thousands.   A small lunch was given (loaves and fishes).   It was a boy’s harvest that was turned into a seed.   

Jesus gave thanks and blessed the apparent lack, and it turned into a blessing for thousands.   This is how the kingdom works.   

Don’t despise what you have.   Give thanks for everything God has given you and put it to work, wrapped in faith and love.   

The Harvest is coming!
