........CAREFUL REAPING......

Peacemakers 

who sow 

in peace 

raise a harvest 

of righteousness.

James 3:18 

Sow righteousness 

for yourselves

reap

the fruit of

unfailing love

and break up 

your unplowed (fallow) ground

for it is time

to seek

the Lord. 

Hosea 10:12 

**

Be careful what you SOW.  Be so careful!  Scripture says that you WILL 

reap what you sow.

If you sow trouble, plowing evil, you will reap it.  (Job 4:8)

If you sow the wind, you will reap the whirlwind! (Hosea 8:7)

Scripture behooves us to reap “well” and not slothful.

If we reap Goodness, guess what will be our fruitful harvest?

What about Righteousness?  God is a good God, who rewards the righteous with His FAVOR! So, SOW RIGHTEOUSNESS!  We are clothed in righteousness, so wear it well!  And reap what you sow, today: Righteous Favor!!!

GOD rains on the just and unjust, for now!  But there will come a day when the God of Justice will separate the wheat from the chaff. (good from evil)

The sheep from the goats. (His godly children from the children of a different Father- wickedness and evil are their demise and consequence)

He will gather unto Himself who belongs to Him (the gatherers and not the scatterers) and we will reap a reward fit for the King’s kids!  This is who we are.  We belong to the King of Kings, we are called by His name!

One day, we will have a face to face with God.  We are all accountable unto God. No one is exempt.  The words I want my Father to tell me are these: “Well done, good job, “well done, my good and faithful servant.”  

But to the sowers who sowed evil and wickedness (the rebellious unbeliever, the one who had sown unbelief, the “scatterers”) they will reap their reward, and it is not good.  They will reap the whirlwind- an eternity of regret for passing up LOVE, the Father’s LOVE.  The Father will look upon them and say: “depart from me, I don’t know you.”

The ones the Father “knows” who are His chosen ones, the ones who allowed Truth to guide them.  The ones who trusted Him with their all and followed His ways.

Yes, the Believer, the one who gave God their heart and LOVED & TRUSTED God we will benefit and reap ALL the goodness of God!  Heaven!  With Jesus! Forever!

Jesus, thank you for this lesson.  I know for some it is a wake up call, and for some it is our reminder to SOW WISELY.  Help us, dear Lord, to take care of what we sow.  Help and bless our seed, Abba.  Thank you for fertile ground.  Water us, and bless us.  Thank you for pulling out all the weeds that try to rob the life from us.  You are our good, good, Father! Thank you, for the angels that encamp all around us. Thank you for Your blood, Jesus, which cleanses and purges EVERY dead work.  And, O, thank you, for your name which is HIGHER than any other name, which holds power as we call out to You.

Help us Lord, not to allow our flesh to rule us, because we will plant bad seed if we allow this, Abba.  Please Lord, protect us and our seed and what we sow by the Power of Your name, Jesus.  

Thank you, again and again for Your many, many blessings, today, tomorrow as we seek YOU, my Lord. Forever, and all eternity, we are Yours.

Sincerely and thankful,

Amen Jesus, Amen!
