Enriched and Enlarged for Success 2


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Chares-Iyoha

The divine enrichment and enlargement for success comes through the planting of seeds - Psalm 126 verses 5 to 6. Seeds vary but irrespective of the diversity of seeds, they all have a common charateristic. They must be planted to produce harvests. While it is the responsibility of humans to plant seeds it is the responsibility of God to produce harvests through His myriad blessings upon seeds that are planted. That is why anyone expecting harvests should plant seeds. The Bible in Ecclesiastes Chapter 11 verses 4 to 6 admonishes believers on the need to plant seeds consistently, frequently, always, regularly. In point of fact, the planting of seeds should be a routine with an established pattern so that the seeds planted can produce the desired harvests. This is to say that giving in whatever form is not a one off activity. Significantly, God initiates and empowers us to do the giving – Ephesians Chapter 2 verse 10.

For instance, God expects your tithes to be consistent. You are to give as your inflow comes in. Your tithe obligations as well as other seeds must be consistent. Inconsistent giving is disobedience. Therefore create a personal pattern and routine or schedule for giving on the respective soils God assigned to you. Please see 1st Corinthians Chapter 16 verses 1 to 2. When you plant consistently, your harvests are consistent but inconsistent planting births inconsistent harvests. Therefore, to receive consistent harvests, consistent inflow, your giving should be consistent. Tithing is a lifestyle of obedience that should be done consistently. Planting and reaping is a circle – Genesis Chapter 8 verse 22. It is a continuous activity. You can experience the power of routine and consistent giving. If you break it, you interrupt the flow of your harvests.

God Wants You to Make Progress

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for the time to favor her, yes, the set time, has come. Psalm 102 verse 13 NKJV

It is the God’s will and agenda for you to continuously make progress that is expressed in continuous motion, advancement and progress so that you are ever increasing, expanding and yielding results and progress. Please see Proverbs Chapter 4 verse 18.

You are wired to make progress and God wants you to make progress. That explains why God does not His children to remain stagnant in one spot for too long. No child of God is permitted to remain in one spot for too long as God wants every child of His to keep moving forward, advancing and making progress. He always instructs them to turn and make forward movements. God’s will is to create turns for every believer as they embark in the journey of life.
Turns are points where you change positions and levels to make progress while progress is positive change in position that makes your today better than your yesterday. Your today becomes better than your yesterday when God moves you to where you ought to be and this happens when you take advantage of the turns God brings your way to make progress. A number of people are at a standstill because they do not recognize the turning points to make progress and even when they do, they do not take advantage of such seasons to make progress.
