Sowing and Reaping in God’s Economy

Have you heard of the saying: “you reap what you sow”?

Are you still waiting for your financial breakthrough?

Do you think God even cares about your finances?

In the world, we either work hard for our money or invest in businesses, unless you’re fortunate enough to inherit vast amounts of money. We want to make money, buy the things we want and be happy. Sadly, it doesn’t always work out that way.

In God’s economy, He operates under the Law of Sowing and Reaping – like how a farmer sows his seeds to get his harvest. You reap the harvest based on the seed that you sow, and it takes time from sowing to reaping.

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. (Galatians 6:7).

Sowing in Faith Activates God’s Economy

I used to worry excessively about money. Then God convicted me to tithe. God doesn’t need my money, but tithing was an exercise of my faith to trust God to provide for me – especially when I was going through some financial crisis. He showed me that holding back out of fear leads to lack, but generosity leads to abundance.

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. (Luke 6:38)

The Hidden Key to Living Your Dreams

What excited me when watching several of Terri Saville Foy’s videos was her message on sowing your seed whenever or wherever you have a need. She said, you must sow your seed for each of your dreams and name the seed so that you will recognise the harvest when it comes. When you donate to God’s Kingdom, you are opening wide the door for God to give in return. When you invest in someone else’s dream, you are helping them as much as helping yourself. Sowing your seed according to your dream is how you get God’s attention to bring forth His blessings for your dreams.

One person gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed. (Proverbs 11:24-25)

My Invitation

This is my invitation to you today: sow your seed and give generously as you trust in God’s protection, provision and abundance.

Dig Deeper by Asking WHY 5x

I completed Andy Stanley and Lane Jones’ book, Communicating For A Change, within 3 days. I have been listening to Andy Stanley’s podcasts for many years. I love the way he is able to clearly convey the message simply and to the point. And he loves to make the words rhyme or have fancy acronyms.

This got me reflecting on the reasons I am writing my blog. These past years, I have chosen random topics from books I read, videos I watched, or insights I have gained. Things that interests me, things that could help and inspire others, things that I felt the Holy Spirit prompting me to share.

Today, I want to dig deeper into the WHYs I write my blog weekly:

  1. WHY? I want to help people get out of the cycle of daily grind and mundane living, to living an Intentional Life of Greatness and Abundance
  2. WHY? Because I truly believe that I have been created for MORE. It’s just that I have been comfortable for too long, and I dread getting out of my comfort zone
  3. WHY? Because when I do things out of my comfort zone, I garner the courage to explore new things and have an opportunity to elevate to a higher level, even if it might be strewn with failures along the way
  4. WHY? Because failures can teach me new life lessons, strengthen my character and build my resilience
  5. WHY? Because I am truly grateful for the many blessings in my life, and I am honoured for having this platform to share my insights which I hope can help and inspire others

This is my journey from daily grind to Blessed Abundance, more importantly, From Ordinary To Extraordinary. And my invitation to you to join me on this amazing journey to become Extraordinary!

Each of us can achieve extraordinary in our own terms, when we overcome our own struggles and challenges, and elevate to become the best version of ourselves. If you believe that you are created for more, then have this pursuit of an extraordinary life. Don’t settle for ordinary. Go for extraordinary! Imagine what our families, communities and corporations could be, if all of us elevate from ordinary to be extraordinary!!! And what a legacy we will leave for our future generations.

Let’s march on: From Ordinary To Extraordinary!
