Harvest Time Na!

The Book of Ecclesiastes tells us, “There is time for everything; a time to plant and a time to harvest.” This month of July is the time to HARVEST; the time for the suddenly blessings to come. God is always there, never too late and comes at the right time and at the right place, ready to bless us.  Thus, if you are involved in the man of God in winning souls, it’s time for you to claim and get your harvest. God promised in Genesis 22:17-18, “blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies.  In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”

This promise was fulfilled in the life of Abraham, all because he obeyed God. Abraham underwent a very arduous test of God. God asked Abraham’s only son, Isaac, to be offered to Him. He did just as God had instructed him. Still, God did not allow Isaac to be offered then since Abraham did not withhold his son. Through this, the faith of Abraham was confirmed.

Abraham’s obedience to God covers 4 truths in attaining the suddenly blessings. These are derive from the word OBEY. First, you must O-vercome your doubts and unbelief. Sarah even laughed when she had known she will bear a son but the Lord responded there’s nothing too hard for Him (Genesis 18:11-15). He who doubts is like the waves of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind (James 1:6-8). Also in Mark 11:23, “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” Next is, B-elieve in the Promise. Abraham was fully convinced that what God had promised, He was also able to perform (Romans 4:18-21). Remember Mark 9:23, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” Therefore, whatever things we ask when we pray, believe that we receive them and we will have them (Mark 11:24). After that, you have to E-ndure it. Hebrews 6:15 says, “And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.” We have to patiently endure every trial to obtain the promise but the good news is God will hasten it in its time (Isaiah 60:22). Last is Y-ield on the Will of God. “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2). If you yield to the perfect will of God and not to this world, blessings will come! “…so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise” Hebrews 10:35-36. God’s Will for us is blessing and multiplication.
