Galatians 6:7- 9Galatians 6:7- 9 7Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

Galatians 6:7- 9Galatians 6:7- 9
“Sow, What’s That
In Your Hand?”
7Do not be deceived, God is not mocked;
for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap. 8For the one who sows to his
own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to
the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. 9Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will
reap if we do not grow weary.
(Galatians 6:7- 9)
You will reap what
you sow, it’s a law.
Paul wasn’t the first to say it...
Matthew 13:24-3027“The slaves of the landowner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ 28“And he said to them, ‘An enemy has done this!’ (27-28a)
For they sow the wind and they reap the whirlwind. (Hosea 8:7a)
eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot (Exodus
21:24)
Then God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation,
plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind with seed in them”; and it was
so. (Genesis 1:11)
The principle of sowing and reaping is
as old as life itself. What you sow is what you reap.
“Do not be deceived,
God cannot be mocked.”
Is it possible for us
to be deceived?
Five Important Lessons:
1. Wise Sowers Sow With
The Harvest In Mind.Farmers never sow just for
the fun of it.
Should our lives be any different?
2. You Will Reap What You Sow.
• We are sowing seed right now and bringing in a harvest from our past. There are two times of harvest:
• NOW
• ETERNITY
3. You Harvest More Than You Sow.
No farmer expects to harvest only the amount
he sows.
Aren’t you glad
the principle
works
both ways?
4. You Reap Later Than You Sow.
No farmer takes a harvest basket with him while he
plants and covers the seed!
5. Even Innocent People Reap A
Harvest From The Seed We Sow.
Adam
Our homes
dishonesty & greed
love, joy & peace.
Paul said, “Do not be deceived.”
