Harvest

Galatians 6: 7 & 9

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap. And let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we shall reap if we do not grow weary.

Some of you have sown good seed into the Kingdom of God but you have not seen a harvest. Do not give up. God said you will reap if you don’t give up.

When Daniel prayed to the Lord he was heard by God. And God sent an angel to Daniel, but it took the angel of God twenty-one days to reach Daniel. The Bible tells us that the forces of Satan hindered the angel of the Lord so that God actually sent Michael, one of his archangels to help (Daniel 10).

The devil is trying to hinder your blessing in just the same way, but God has told us that as long as we don’t give up, we win. The forces of God will always overcome the forces of Satan. Additionally, we have something important that Daniel didn’t have. We have Jesus, the overcomer. Jesus has already defeated Satan and all of the forces of this world.

Satan does not have any real power anymore. He must trick you into defeating yourself. If he can get you to give up, he wins even though the answer had already been sent from heaven. Another trick he has is that he will try to get you to speak something negative out of your mouth. By the words of your mouth, you can pull your own seed out of the ground and stomp on it. Or you can speak good words and water that seed. It is your choice, but the devil will try to trick you into defeating your own crop. If you will hang in there and keep confessing God’s blessing in your life, you are going to have whatsoever you pray for. Don’t give up! Don’t give in! You win.
