OPEN HEAVEN 15 APRIL 2025 TUESDAY: THE LAW OF HARVEST
OPEN HEAVEN 15 APRIL 2025 MEMORISE: Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7
OPEN HEAVEN 15 APRIL 2025 READ: 2 Corinthians 9:6-11
6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.
10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)
11 Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.
OPEN HEAVEN 15 APRIL 2025 MESSAGE
One of my sons was in a church service, and the Lord told him to give an offering of N1,000, which was a lot of money in those days.
He said, “Get behind me, satan,” and God replied, “It is not satan, it is Me, and I am not going anywhere.”
He kept trying to silence the voice that spoke to him, but the voice persisted. At last, he decided to give N500, just in case it was God.
The next week, a woman came to his office and gave him N50,000. He was excited because it was a lot of money.
As the woman was leaving, she turned back and said, “Sir, I’m sorry,but I have to confess this.
I was actually supposed to give you N100,000, but something came up, and I had to spend N50,000 out of it.”
Immediately he heard that, his excitement vanished. He realised that God wanted him to reap a harvest of N100,000, but he only sowed half of the seed that was required.
When we sow something little, we will reap something little in return (2 Corinthians 9:6, Luke 6:38).
The harvest of a farmer who sows on hectares of land cannot be compared to that of a farmer who sows on a small piece of land in his backyard.
Wise farmers reserve their best crops for sowing because they know that the quality of the seed is a major determinant of the quality of the harvest.
Only foolish fellows eat the best of their seeds. Whenever God blesses you, He puts the seed for the next season and the bread for the present season in that blessing. Always recognise your seed and sow it.
Seeds can be in the form of actions, service, or words. In 2 Kings 4:8-10, the great woman of Shunem sowed the seed of kindness to Elisha, and she reaped a bountiful harvest.
Her decision to set aside a space for the man of God to rest whenever he passed by her town was a seed that yielded multiple harvests.
First, she reaped a harvest of fruitfulness after a long period of barrenness; then, she reaped a harvest of resurrection when her son suddenly died and was resurrected.
Lastly, she reaped a harvest of miraculous restoration after returning to her city following a seven-year famine to find that her land and house had been taken over (2 Kings 4:8-8:1-6).
I decree that all your good seeds will yield bountiful harvests, in Jesus’ name.
Plant a seed of kindness in somebody’s life today.
