The law of multiplication

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
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

  • Worthy Goal for Life

    Every person has a goal, whether he talks about it or not. He is driven to do something. But if we talk about goals, it is important to determinewhether it is WORTHY or UNWORTHY. Paul had a worthy goal and talked about it all the time:«…according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you.

  • Ignorance is a matter of personal choice

    If a person does not fulfil this duty, he won’t have enough light to see evil and hide from it. Besides, this verse tells us that such a person (he or she is called „simple”) goes ahead and is punished – not by God, but by his own ignorance. Ignorance separates a person from the life of God, because he knows nothing about God’s provision. «..having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart» (Ephesians, 4:18).Because of ignorance human mind is darkened, heart is hardened and he himself is alienated from the life of God.

    «..being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ» (Philippians, 1:6).Why was Paul so confident that the Lord will complete the good work He has begun in the lives of believers? If you pay careful attention to the context, you will see that his confidence is based upon the attitude of these people towards the work of God.In the beginning of his letter Paul said that these people had been preaching the Gospel from the very beginning of their walk with God.

God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth» (John, 4:23-24).
