Harvest a Bumper Crop of Prosperity

You reap what you sow.
What goes around comes around.
You'll get it in the end.

I'm sure you heard one or more of these comments or something to their effect. Each culture or language has many parables or sayings that are similar in meaning.

Let's just think for a moment...If there is truth in these statements. Now if there is truth in them, what are you sowing/doing on a constant basis?

To sow (plant things/seeds)
This can take the form of thoughts, words, deeds, actions. What are you constantly thinking? What are you saying to yourself, loved ones, and strangers? What actions are you doing on a daily basis? And what things are you doing for others (big/small)?

To reap (harvest, get the fruit of what was sown)
Whatever you do in the above action of sowing will be determined what you receive as a harvest. Just keep in mind the harvest is much larger than the amount sown. What do I mean? Have you ever seen one seed (fruit, vegetable, or plant),come up as one apple/orange, one ear of corn/one bean pod, one leaf on a stem? The answer is definitely not-- it would look strange---it would also require a person to plant an enormous amount of seeds.

***One seed produces one plant (which isn't the harvest), this plant then yields its fruit in it's season. The result of an apple/orange seed is a tree full of fruit (each season), that can be enjoyed by many people. Now that is a Harvest***

"But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully."

II Corinthians 9:6

I believe that is one reason why people often say: "why is this happening to me". They may not be doing wrong but they are not sowing the right kind of seeds.

Sow you seeds for the kind/type of harvest that you want. If you want a good harvest sow good seeds. If you want an abundant/very large harvest sow many seeds.

"7. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

9.An let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."

Galatians 6:7,9

With that being said, when you go about your day why not speak good things upon the lives of those you meet? Why not do some good deed to/for them? It doesn't have to big things. Let someone get in front of you (in traffic/in the store). Tell someone to have a nice day or better yet a blessed day. Many only feel comfortable telling someone to be blessed when they sneeze.


"...remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive."

Acts 20:35

They use to say: God bless you now most say: bless you. This was said to have started centuries ago in Germany because disease was running wild. When a person sneezed they thought it was a sign that they were catching a particular disease.

Also do it with a cheerful heart, otherwise it's not doing you a bit of good to do it.

"Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver"

II Corinthians 9:7

Many of the things I may suggest for you to do may not seem like much. They will definitely be easy and simple. Please don't let that fool you...Things don't have to be difficult or hard in order to get good results...They just need to be right (correct).

Christ never told anyone to jump through hoops. He made things simple and easy to those that truly wanted a change in their lives. To the ones that were making things difficult for others He told simple stories which seemed to confuse them. The parables really kept them occupied so that others could get blessed.

So speak blessings to people coming and going. In other words everyone you see or meet. If you're uncomfortable doing that:

• then say them in a very low voice at first.- Once you see what happens in your life and the more at ease you become just say the blessings a little louder until you are using your normal talking voice.
• don't look or wait for a response from the person. -You don't want them to give you anything in return.
• just give and go.- You're doing a quick thing. So drop your contribution (seed) and go.

It's Seedtime, you're just planting seeds in the ground (yourself and others). So plant a lot of them because farmers often place numerous seeds in one hole because some seeds may not be good(strong), enough to produce a good bumper crop (Harvest time).

So if you want an abundance (large amount) of blessings and prosperity..sow..sow..sow (and be glad or eager to do it).
