WHAT YOU SOW
\n<\/b><\/p>\n
In your new beginning allow the newness of God\u2019s grace to reign in your life. It is important to understand that working the works of God is not same as walking as He walked. WHAT YOU SOW YOU WILL REAP There is no procedure neither is there any mishap that can obliterate or erase for one not to reap from what was sown and this was also the case for Esau. FAITH CAPSULE: WHAT YOU SOW In your new beginning allow the newness of God\u2019s grace to reign in your life. In the past year, whatever it is that does not represent God; that which does not glorify God, disallow it from having a place in your life as you engage the journey of a new beginning.

\nIn the past year, whatever it is that does not represent God; that which does not glorify God, disallow it from having a place in your life as you engage the journey of a new beginning.
\nIt is true that what a man sows he will surely reap. God is a perfect Manager and He perfects in managing each and every of His creation by virtue of allowing His creation to reap from what they sow. In life, it is impossible to sow the seed of deception and expect to reap the fruit of perfection. If what a man sow is good, man shall reap good. Just as God will not overlook rewarding good for good so He will not overlook reward bad for bad. He is a righteous judge and man should always expect to reap from what man sows.
\nAny man who sows the seed of lie will reap the fruit of being deceived. It is worthy to live life as one who knows Him and anything short of living life as one who knows Him is living life as a liar. It is written, \u201cHe who says, \u201cI know Him,\u201d and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. \u00a0<\/sup>But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. \u00a0<\/sup>He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.\u201d(1John2:4-6) <\/i><\/b>How do you walk His walk?<\/p>\n
\nTo work the works of God is to believe in Jesus. (John 6:28-29) To walk is walk is to behave the word you believe. God invests so much in us while we extend so little to Him by the way we walk His walk. Working and not walking will not get us to where He wants for us to be.
\nOur walk is also our seed which we sow for God to reward us.<\/p>\n
\n<\/i><\/b>Esau, the first son of Isaac, knew well enough not to marry outside of his father\u2019s prescribed area but nevertheless, he still went and married without Isaac\u2019s blessing. It is written, \u201cWhen Esau was forty years old, he took as wives Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite. And they were a grief of mind to Isaac and Rebekah.\u201d(Genesis 26:34-35) <\/i><\/b>Esau could not walk before his father Isaac; he disobeyed his father and also violated God\u2019s command which states, \u201cHonor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the <\/i><\/b>Lord<\/i><\/b> your God is giving you. (Exodus 20:12).
\n<\/i><\/b>Esau\u2019s act of disobedience activated a grief of mind to his parents which can be likened to heartache, stress, disruption, anger and maybe sleepless nights.\u00a0 At a very old age when it was time for Isaac to bless his children, Esau was in line to take the best part of the blessings.
\nRegardless of Esau\u2019s act of disobedience his father still considered him to be the one receiving the best of the blessings. Isaac called on Esau and spoke to him, \u201cNow therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me. 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.\u201d(Genesis 27:3-4)
\n<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\nEsau could not reap right where he sow wrongly when his mother re-assigned His chance to reap the blessing from his father to Jacob his brother. Jacob took the position of Esau\u2019s blessing. There was no documentation of a conscious and purposeful act by Rebekah to punish Esau for his disobedience act.
\nThe point here is that nothing passes outside of God\u2019s seeing\u2026man shall reap from whatever man sows.
\nEsau sowed the seed of grief to his parents and there was no way out for him but to reap the fruit of grief.
\nAs the year progresses, watch the kind of seeds you sow because when reaping time starts, prayer will not help to deny you from the pain of what you sow.<\/p>\n
\n<\/b>It is true that what a man sows he will surely reap.
\nYour work without walking in Him is not enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
