Sowing Continually

Day 24

“Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.”

– Galatians 6:7

One day, as I was having my devotion time, I read that the word “sows” in this verse is not a one-time deal. Instead, it is in the plural tense, meaning a constant, steady, perpetual sowing of seed. Sometimes we think we have done enough, we have sowed enough, we read our Bible enough, we prayed enough, so we get distracted and stop moving forward. But we cannot slow down when it comes to the things of God and when it comes to taking the necessary steps forward in our lives.

The other side of this coin is that when we sow, we must reap, there is no way around it. When we are doing as this verse says – continually sowing – we will continually reap. The Greek translation of reap here actually translates to, “You will reap, reap, reap, and reap – and keep on reaping”. I want that kind of sowing and reaping in my life. How about you?

And don’t let condemnation get you down.

“…There is no distinction, since all have sinned and continually fall short of the glory of God.”

– Romans 3:22-23 (AMP)

Naturally, we will make mistakes and, in fact, the Bible warns us that we will! So get back up, dust yourself off, and start sowing fresh seeds!

Where do you need to sow more seeds in your life? Where have you sown seeds before but stopped because you got discouraged?

Believing with you,
