The law of multiplication

I bless you, precious children of God, on this wonderful day and pray that God’s Word would be revealed to you in a special way and enrich your life. Today I want to discuss with you the law of multiplication. Let’s look into the Bible.

«And He said, „The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come»(Mark, 4:26-29).

Jesus speaks here of the power that is hidden in seed and about its potential. This passage of Scripture clearly shows that growth or multiplication is a process and not an instant event.  If we have seed and sow it in good ground, then we will definitely see a harvest. Seed will grow. Sown seed first gives blade, then head and then grain in the head. Multiplication and growth always imply process. It is unavoidable if we want to receive harvest. We just have to do our part. First, that we have to understand in order to receive harvest is that we need some seed. The truth is that we already have seed. If you want to see multiplication in some area of your life you should know that you already have seed from God. But until you sow the seed there won’t be any grown or changes. There are no short cuts to multiplication; it is a process. Until you sow you seed you won’t see any differences or changes in your life. What does that mean to sow seed? It implies the part that should be done by a person, not God. It is similar to farmer’s work: in order to receive harvest he needs to sow and to plant, then he waters, then he weeds; that is, he works hard to create the most favourable conditions for the seed he has sown. As soon as farmer does his part he can fully trust the Lord Who gives increase. «..and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself…»  We are not able to explain how seed grows; we don’t understand this process fully, but we can do our part. And when we do our part, God promises that there will be multiplication and harvest. It is God Who sends rain, sunshine and everything else necessary for the seed to produce crops. Do you desire to see changes in your life? Do you want to see harvest? What are you doing for it to happen? Remember, without sowing there is no harvest.May the Lord bless you! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye
