Topic :Making The Right Investments.
Memory Verse: Galatians 6:10. Take advantage of every opportunity to be a blessing to others, especially to our brothers and sisters in the family of faith!.
Bible Reading :Galatians 6:7-9 TPT. Key Verse : v9.
Make no mistake about it, God will never be mocked! For what you plant will always be the very thing you harvest. The harvest you reap reveals the seed that was planted. If you plant the corrupt seeds of self – life into this natural realm, you can expect to experience a harvest of corruption. If you plant the good seeds of Spirit-life you will reap the beautiful fruits that grow from the everlasting life of the Spirit. And don’t allow yourselves to be weary or disheartened in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you’ve planted is coming!
Paul was teaching us at the beginning of this chapter to live a family and community life as believers, watching the back of each other. That is a situation where we live to encourage and support each other as brothers and sisters in the family of God. This can only be possible where we have a kingdom mentality out of a genuine love for God and his people. This happens when we discover that we have a common heritage and goal in Christ. Men who work with such mindset understands that we are all here to make Jesus known to the world. Our primary motivation then becomes the gain of Christ and his kingdom. That’s when we labour in any given situation for kingdom instead of our personal gains. “And now I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. If you have love for one another, then everyone will know that you are my disciples.”” John 13:34-35.
For this to be possible we have to live to support each other with our every grace giftings invested in our lives by heaven. This becomes possible when we see it as our duty to build up ourselves in the things of the Spirit. Many are not growing or making any significant impact kingdom-wise because they have chosen to keep sowing into their flesh. They see things of the Spirit as not important because they think that it doesn’t add any immediate value they can see with their eyes to their lives. Such people will avoid a prayer meeting to attend a love feast. They will prefer to pay money to receive spiritual help than building up themselves in their faith and walk with the master as to become solutions.
“Those who are motivated by the flesh only pursue what benefits themselves. But those who live by the impulses of the Holy Spirit are motivated to pursue spiritual realities. For the mind-set of the flesh is death, but the mind-set controlled by the Spirit finds life and peace. In fact, the mind-set focused on the flesh fights God’s plan and refuses to submit to his direction, because it cannot! For no matter how hard they try, God finds no pleasure with those who are controlled by the flesh. But when the Spirit of Christ empowers your life, you are not dominated by the flesh but by the Spirit. And if you are not joined to the Spirit of the Anointed One, you are not of him.” Romans 8:5-9. The time we invest in spiritual exercises that build up our spiritual muscles are never wasted times. At the right time, the impact will become visible, just like a harvest that justifies the labour of a farmer or the yield of every other investment that speaks for itself. We therefore have to be consistent till our harvest of results of life becomes very visible in all we do.
Prayer :Thank you Father God for raising me to be an encourager to many in my generation. Help me to be consistent in sowing seeds that enhance my growth and ability in kingdom endeavours. Thank you for making me a blessing and solution in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Exodus 1:8-2:10.
