The Miracle of Seed Faith
Hey, what's up, everyone! Jeromiah here, diving into a powerful principle that has completely transformed my life and my understanding of God: the miracle of seed faith.
This isn't just an abstract concept; it's a foundational truth of the Kingdom of God that, once grasped, changes everything.
My inspiration for this message came recently when I saw someone at church carrying a classic book: "The Miracle of Seed-Faith" by Oral Roberts. That book isn't just vital for its revelation; it's a timeless message that has been impacting lives for decades. Seeing it sparked a fire in me, knowing I had to share this pivotal truth with you.
Everything Starts as a Seed
The principle of seed faith is rooted deeply in the Word of God, particularly in Jesus' parable of the sower (Matthew 13, Mark 4, Luke 8). Jesus explains how the seed's outcome depends on the condition of the ground it falls on—rocky, wayside, shallow, or good, fertile soil. He even told His disciples, "If you don't get this, how will you understand anything else?" This highlights that the entire Kingdom of God operates on the principle of sowing and reaping.
Think about it: Nothing in life, truly nothing, just "bam!" appears as a full harvest. A business starts with an idea (a seed), followed by a plan and action. The same is true in our walk with God. There must be a desire for God's Word to be spread, and then the actions to carry it forth.
Beyond Money: Sowing Words and Actions
When we talk about seed faith, it's easy to jump straight to finances. And yes, it absolutely works with money! But as Oral Roberts so powerfully taught, seed faith goes far beyond just financial giving.
Your words are seeds. Your actions are seeds.
God can only multiply what has been sown. If you sow nothing, you'll reap nothing. This revelation profoundly impacted me: how I respond to people, how I handle issues—these are all seeds I'm sowing. And the harvest? It will come back to me in greater measure, whether good or bad.
The Bible promises a 30, 60, or 100-fold return on what you sow. This isn't just about financial prosperity; it's about every area of your life:
Sow kindness: Expect kindness to return to you.
Sow problem-solving: Expect solutions to appear in your own life.
Sow a good attitude: Expect positivity and favor in your interactions.
Conversely, if you sow negativity, rudeness, or indifference, you can expect a bitter harvest. What you make happen for others, God makes happen for you. And sadly, what you do to others can also be done to you. It's the unchanging law of seedtime and harvest (Genesis 8:22).
Your Health, Your Choices, Your Harvest
This principle applies even to your health. If you desire good health, you must sow good seeds: intentional choices about what you eat, how much you move, and how you care for your body. You can't expect a harvest of health if you're consistently sowing seeds of unhealthy habits.
Just like you won't find an apple tree without first planting an apple seed, you won't experience a harvest of good things if you haven't sown the corresponding good seeds.
What Are You Sowing Today?
So, let me ask you: What are you in need of? What do you want to see suddenly emerge in your life?
God is no respecter of persons. What He did for me, He will do for you. Just as He can cause new skin or body parts to emerge (as we've seen in our "Breakthrough" message), He can bring forth whatever you need.
It's time to be intentional. Sow good seeds. Speak good words. Be a good person. Find solutions instead of causing problems. Make healthy choices. These small seeds, cultivated with faith, will return to you as a giant harvest.
If you've been sowing bad seeds, I encourage you to stop. Quit the attitude. Step away from arguments. Start sowing seeds that align with the life you truly desire.
I believe that just like my life changed in an instant, yours can too when you start sowing with intention and asking the God of the Breakthrough to work in your life.
Have the Best Day,
Jeromiah
