FAITH CAPSULE: In life, giving is sowing, sowing is serving God. 

John 10

In life, giving is sowing. 
What is it that you are giving back to God?
What have you done for Jesus lately? 
All owe God, but God does not owe anyone.
The main reason the Lord God gave Jesus was for all to inherit eternal life. 
Every step taken to inherit eternal life is for all to live life for God.
The acclaimed believer should walk in His righteousness, positioning receiving from God.
In life, giving is sowing, sowing is serving God. 
What are you giving?
Are you serving Him diligently?
When there is no understanding in place to give, there will be no understanding to receive from God.
It is true that what one sows, such will not reap. 
God is a perfect Manager, and He perfects in managing every one of His creations by allowing His creation to reap from what they sow. 
Living life as one that sows the seed of deception and expecting to reap the fruit of perfection is an error. 
Any man who sows the seed of a lie will reap the fruit of being deceived. 
It is to live life as one who knows God, and anything short of living life as one who knows Him is living life as a liar, a life of waste. 
1 John 2:4- 6 records, “He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this, we know that we are in Him. He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.”
God invests so much in all while all extend so little to Him. 
Nothing passes outside of God that He does not see.
All is bound to reap from whatever one sows. 
What kind of seeds are you sowing?
When it is reaping time, prayer time might have expired, too late to avoid the consequences of failure to sow.
John 10:10-11 states, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep”  
Celebrating the season of events in the life of Jesus is not evidence of sowing any good that glorifies God for all He has done. 
Also, It is not a license to heaven. 
However, living life to the glory of God is what provokes the hand of God in the life of a believer. 
Allow the heart of serving God to be your way of life.
Serving God is like sowing with expectation for the fruit sown.

Prayer for today: Ask for the hand of God to begin to move and lead you to live life for His glory.
