The Holy Word of the LORD is a comfort to those who know Him and hold it dear in their hearts. It is the “Book of Life” and the “Book of Love.”  It is an explanation of how we should live and how we can prosper.  It is instruction for His children.

We sow and we reap.

As we sow crops for the LORD we are hopeful that we’ll enjoy the harvest. As we prune our vineyards correctly; we’ll expect to enjoy the fruits of our labors.

The LORD blesses and multiplies the fruits of His children’s labor…if we’re pleasing to Him in that which we do.

If we’re not compliant or pleasing in His sight, although we sow the seeds, we’ll not “reap” enormous rewards, which is to say…fruits of our labor.

We can do things the Father’s way and be blessed, or not do things His way and not be blessed.  We can have a full bucket, or we can have holes in the bucket.

In other words, God wants His children to prosper and to share in His glory, and the way to do it is by His Word.  When we listen to His Word we’re going to prosper and be rewarded both on earth and in heaven.

Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; consider your ways.   Haggai 1:5     This is something all of us should do, and to meditate about.  This is a good verse to ask God in His wisdom to show you the path and the way to please Him.  It’s a good way to pray over this verse saying, “Father show me the way to please you.  Open the path of that which you wish for me to fulfill. In Jesus name. Amen.”  He will show you and He will guide you…when you ask and pray…and commune with Him.

When we accept the purpose of His will,  and do the word  we’re called to do,  while giving Him all the glory and praise, we’ll be nourished daily,   and the provisions the LORD sends our way will overflow.

Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the People; cast up cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people.  Isaiah 62:10 

Jesus Christ is to which this verse is referring. We are to live according to His principals and doctrine…and as we perform the duties in which we’re called to do…we will draw closer and closer to the LORD.  Our spiritual sight will improve, our hearing will be sharper, and our discerning ability will grow exponentially in Christ.

 

I have set watchmen upon thy walls. O’ Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night; ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence.  Isaiah 62:6 

We are children of the One and only Living God.  We are to perform according to His ways.  The LORD has set up His children to watch at all times, be prepared and ready.

As we continue to sow the seeds of truth…remember  harvesting time grows near.  So look up because “redemption draws nigh…”
