Changing the Harvest

Make no mistake about it, God will never be mocked! For what you plant will always be the very thing you harvest. The harvest you reap reveals the seed that was planted. If you plant the corrupt seeds of self-life into this natural realm, you can expect to experience a harvest of corruption. If you plant the good seeds of Spirit-life you will reap the beautiful fruits that grow from the everlasting life of the Spirit.
Galatians 6:7-8 The Passion Translation

I didn't write this devotion, Pastor Alan Neel did (of Life Community Church, La Porte, TX). I added the prayer at the end.

*************************
If we don’t like what we are reaping, we should change what we are planting. It’s a good quote, but entirely impossible without God’s assistance.

Our sinful nature is plagued with addiction! It doesn’t have to be drugs, alcohol, or some sexual addiction, it can be ANYTHING that satisfies our flesh. Only by continually asking God for help, and yielding to the power of the Holy Spirit can we overcome our flesh. It’s a battle where victories are won one day at a time! MAKE THAT DAY TODAY! 

CHANGE THE SEED AND CHANGE THE HARVEST!

Prayer:

Father,

           Help us to rip up the bad seed that has been sown in our lives - to weed out the tares in our fields of life. We want to sow pure seeds of Your love so that hate is choked out. We want to plant seeds of Your peace in the midst of the storms of this life. Bring Your peace, Father, In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
