“This people has a defiant and rebellious heart; they have revolted and departed. They do not say in their heart, ‘Let us now fear the LORD our God, Who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season. He reserves for us the appointed weeks of the harvest.’”Jeremiah 5:23-24
God was disappointed. He was ready to meet the needs of His people, but they were defiant and rebellious. If only they had been faithful to fear and trust Him, He would have blessed them. He even promised that He had reserved an appointed time for their Harvests—a time when all their needs would be met!
God’s principles have not changed. His promises remain as true today as they were in Jeremiah’s time. In fact, the Lord is ready to pour out His blessings on each of us! But we have choices to make that will determine whether or not we will receive these blessings.
Some defiantly refuse to believe God’s Word. Others become impatient and then conform to the ways of the world. Some simply conclude that they never will Reap a Harvest, and they stop Sowing Seeds into the Kingdom.
Yet God promises that He has reserved a Harvest for us if we will continue to trust in Him, look to Him, and Sow into His Kingdom with our time, talent, and treasure. And He has told us that we will Reap whatever we Sow (Galatians 6:7).
Have you been Sowing into God’s Kingdom? Have you been planting Seeds with your gifts and resources, your love and prayers, your talents and abilities? God is faithful and He has promised that He has reserved an appointed time for your Harvest.
Brothers & Sisters,stay faithful. Keep Sowing Seeds and believing. Have faith in God. Be patient, because Paul wrote, “in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart” (Galatians 6:9). As you are faithful, God will reward you with an abundant Harvest.
