You Will Reap!

 Scripture:

“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”  ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Observation:

Paul tells us here that we should not give up on doing well because WE WILL REAP, if we don’t give up. He was writing to the Galatians because they were being drawn back into Judaism and keeping the Law.  He was telling them to love each other, do good to each other, and to help each other.  In telling them this, he tells them they will reap if they just keep on going and doing these things.

Application:

We can’t give up on doing the right thing.  When we haven’t seen an answer to our prayers or God is not doing what we think He should do, we cannot give up.  We must continue to seek Him and do the right thing, knowing that reaping day will come.  A farmer doesn’t see fruit from his work for a long time, but he does it knowing that if he just does the right thing, he will reap at the proper time.  In God, we can’t give up when things don’t go our way, we must continue to serve and help, knowing our day is coming.

Prayer:

Father, help me to never give up before You do.  Help me to understand that doing the right thing for a long time always bring results.  You have called me and assigned me.  Help me to never give up too fast before You do Your work and demonstrate Your goodness.  

Yours Forever,

Jeff
