Let us sow in the Savior and succeed
“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.”
Malachi 3:10 NIV
I giggled this morning as I REad the devotional by Joel Osteen. In our cultural, people will say “don’t try me”, but that’s exactly what our Father wants us to do. As written in today’s accompanying verse from Malachi 3:10, He says, “Put me to the test!” Osteen says, “God wants you to overflow with His goodness”. The Father wants to BE used by me and you to see us not just T.H.R.O.U.G.H. (Trials, Hurt, Regrets, Obstacles, Uncertainty, Guilt, Heartbreak) but to what He has for us, which is exceeding abundantly above all we can ask or think. Let us commit today not to just settle and survive but set new standards in Christ for you and I.
Isaiah 22
Hold onto what is written in Isaiah 22:22, REmembering along life’s JOurneY, what He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open.
REflection from Promises for Your Everyday Life
The message from Joyce Meyer today called “From Seedtime to Harvest” is truly right on time for me. We all need gentle REminders about life, and this one just made me REmember the time of year it is for me. She says, “Ecclesiastes 3:1 tells us that there is a season for everything. We don't all live in the same season at the same time. You should never be jealous of someone who is enjoying harvest while you're still in the planting season. Remember, they had to go through a season of planting just as you are.” She goes further to say, “Seedtime represents learning the will of God…. Between seedtime and harvest comes a time of waiting.” Let us not get discouraged in the waiting BEcause that is when God is working. Focus on the fact that you are planted, rooted and grounded in Him, and in His perfect timing our harvest will appear.
Matthew 9:37-38
The blessings He has for us are plenteous, but we have to work, even T.H.R.O.U.G.H. (Trials, Hurt, Regrets, Obstacles, Uncertainty, Guilt, Heartbreak) the weeds as distraction to REap the harvest He has available for you and me.🙏🏽💚🦋🌈
Let us sow in the Savior and succeed, my friend.
