THE PROCESS OF PROSPERITY

MARK 4:26-29


“And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.” (Mark 4:27)

You go where you sow because where you sow is where you put your emphasis. We must target our seed! There is a process to reaping a harvest from seed we’ve sown. It’s a process of time. It’s a process of planting your seed faithfully and consistently – planting in faith believing. We sow seeds in our tithes and offerings. but we also sow seeds by our lives. We sow seeds of kindness and mercy. You need to sow mercy whenever and wherever you can, because you’ll never know when you need to reap mercy.

One of the greatest deceptions of people is this: Have it all and have it now. There is a process of time. We’ve seen people with tremendous anointings, people doing great things for God, and we desire the same. The devil tries to tempt young ministers to take shortcuts – shortcuts in character or shortcuts in the way they receive offerings by using manipulation. Some yield to the temptation to take a little shortcut to get to where someone else is or to have what someone else has. Let’s not succumb to that. It’s a process of time. Just keep sowing seed, and let God bring the harvest. Keep doing what’s right because it is right.

Oftentime our gifts can take us to where our character can’t keep us. What you compromise to obtain, you’ll ultimately lose. We may not understand how, we may not understand when, but God is responsible. If you’ll sow seed in faith, He’ll take you to the place you need to be. There is a a process to prosperity! (BN)
