It is absolutely and definitely certain that one cannot sow oranges and reap onions. Also, as close as the banana and plantain may look alike, one cannot sow bananas and reap plantains. It is a very common saying, \u00d2what you sow is what you will reap\u00d3. If you will start to sow well, you will reap from what is good. It is impossible to sow the seed of deception and expect to reap the fruit of reception. Where you are sowing seeds of lies, you will reap the fruit of being deceived. Esau, the first son of Isaac, knew well enough not to marry outside of his father\u00d5s prescribe area but nevertheless, he still went and married without Isaac\u00d5s prescribed area. Genesis 26:34-35, \u00d2<\/i><\/b>When Esau was forty years old, he took as wives Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite. 35 And they were a grief of mind to Isaac and Rebekah.\u00d3 <\/i><\/b>Esau\u00d5s move gave his parents grief of mind, which can be likened to heartache, stress, disruption, anger and maybe sleepless nights. At a very old age when it was time for Isaac to sleep and go back to God, it was also time to pronounce blessings upon his children. Esau, being the first child, was in line to take the best part of the blessings. Despite the grief that Esau had caused his parents by marrying outside of his father\u00d5s prescribed area, he was still considered to be the one receiving the best of the blessings. Isaac called on Esau and spoke to him, \u00d2Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me. 4 And make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me that I may eat, that my soul may bless you before I die.\u00d3(Genesis 27:3-4)<\/i><\/b> There is no formula neither is there any accident that can delete or erase for one not to reap what he has sown and this was also the case for Esau. His mother intercepted Isaac\u00d5s request and she made Jacob to overtake the blessings of Esau. Jacob went and carried out the assignment and entered into an assigned blessing of his brother. At the time Esau came back from his hunting, Jacob had already carried out Isaac\u00d5s request and went away without any way of Esau regaining the blessing. Esau sowed the seed of grief for his parents and there was no way out for him but to reap the fruit of grief. Jacob, however, did not get away from sowing the seed of deception. Jacob also reaped the fruit of being aggravatingly deceived in the hand of Laban, his father in-law. Watch the kind of seeds you are sowing because when it starts growing, prayer will not help you to escape from reaping what you sow. Ask for the grace to be a good sower; not a bad sower.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
