The Blessings of Faithfully Planting and Reaping

"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." (Galatians 6:7-9 King James Version)

This is God's principle from the Bible. "Sowing and Reaping" applies to individual, groups, organizations and the church. It's similar to "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you" principle. Or "Do not do unto others that which you don't want others will do unto you" philosophy. This is true in our giving to the Lord as well as in our charitable works for our fellow men. The church that sows the seeds of the Word of God will reap the abundance of the fruit thereof. The negative side- the evil deeds that we've done to others will bear the same fruit someday, it means we will reap what we sow.

The Lord will not close His eyes to those who are faithfully giving their lives, their resources, and their strenght. And He will not close His eyes either to those who practiced evil, dishonesty, unfaithfulness, to greediness and selfishness. God is a just God, He is the same yesterday, today, and for eternity. (Hebrews 13:8 KJV) Jesus said; "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets."
