Have A Word Harvest
JOSHUA 1:8 NIV
8 Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
When God first gave anyone instructions for success, the first thing He said was to always keep His Word on their lips.
Jesus taught that God's Word was a seed (Luke 8:11). Seed produces a harvest — if used properly.
The harvest that God's Word produces in your life is freedom (John 8:31-32). Here are three steps to seeing a harvest of freedom in your life: 1. Plant the seed of the Word by reading it, saying it, and hearing it. 2. Water the seed by reading, speaking, and hearing the Word some more. 3. Gather the harvest by speaking the Word (when you believe it and know it inwardly).
Most people try to skip the first two steps. No wonder they have not had better results! You cannot reap the harvest without planting the seed and watering it.
Feed your faith, in every area you desire to be strong in, by speaking God's Word that covers those subjects.
Remember — if you want to harvest a continuous crop of freedom — you must plant the seed of God's Word continuously.
SAY THIS: I will read, speak, and listen to God's Word.
