Lord of Our Harvest
How awe inspiring is the harvest season. The crisp cool smell of the leaves rustling in the breeze of the Autumn season. What have we sown, planted toiled over and broke the ground to get that seed in the ground, is now time to reap the harvest. And He promises us that; While the earth remaineth, seed, time, and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease in Genesis 8:22. Faithfulness of the death, burial, and growth of a seed put in the ground watered in a constant rhythm to produce a harvest. A harvest of purpose in ever way if we are eager to change the atmosphere we live in for purpose.
The seed may be the word of God that impacted us and spoke to us and the ground, being our heart. The heart has to be broken and toiled for the word seed to fall and grow in our spirit to produce later encouragement and a testament of a person who overcame victorious, through prayer and being in the word of God and searching for His presence daily. The more word, the more harvest; the more harvest, the more others can come and partake of its fruit that God be glorified, He is the Lord of the harvest.
When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands. ~Deuteronomy 24:19
At one time or another perhaps we have been in one of those four corners of the Stranger, the Fatherless, the Widow, and the Poor; perhaps in the natural or even spiritual. It's those times the Lord asks His people to help those in need that we can understand and see that He takes care of us and that His people hear from Him and obey to take care of those who are in those corners of, the Stranger, the Fatherless, The Widow, and the Poor.
And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I am the Lord your God.~Leviticus 23:22
As we gather the goodness of the abundance He's given us from the sweat and toil of our labor, let us be reminded that He is the "Lord of our harvest". And when we gather and bring in the sheaves, may we give to those in the four corners in hopes that one day they will come out and gather also a harvest.
Lord bless me and bless through me because its all about you Lord and your Kingdom, you are Jehovah Jirah our provider.
