The Law Of The Harvest

Dia 2 de 6

Your harvest depends on what you sow. 

This is the simple principle of farming that if you plant apple seeds, you won’t get a pear tree. What you plant has to be predicated on what you want to harvest. That’s why Jesus said in Luke 6:38, “Give, and it will be given to you.” Your need will tell you the kind of seed to plant so that your seed will reproduce after its own kind. The Bible cautions us: “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap” (Galatians 6:7). 

The problem is a lot of people want to sow evil and reap good. So if your sowing is bad, expect to reap bad unless you resow. To access God’s grace in the law of the harvest, you sow what you want to reap. 

The apostle Paul made a great promise in Philippians 4:19, which says: “And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in Christ Jesus.” The phrase “according to” means “in keeping with;” in other words, a supply that is in character with the God who owns it all. That’s exciting, but the preceding 18 verses of Philippians 4 show that this promise of a bountiful harvest on God’s part is set in the context of faithful giving to His work as the Philippians supported Paul.

If the Lord were to give you the necessities of life - food, clothing, shelter - “according to” your giving to His work, would you have plenty?

The Law Of The Harvest

In 2 Corinthians 9 Paul says that what we give we will receive in abundance. So instead of asking God to keep increasing our gain, we are to give bountifully and cheerfully. In this plan, Tony Evans teaches the six Laws of the Harvest, and how we are to implement them into our lives.
