FINDING & LOCATING A SPIRITUAL GOOD SOIL TO SOW YOUR SEED
For most believing Christians, giving their substance as instructed by God himself or sowing their money seed to a church or ministry is not a challenge but finding a good ground to sow. Finding a good spiritual soil is really not a simple task but once you have found one and you begin to plant, you can be rest assured that you will get a bountiful harvest.
In my Christian journey & walk with God from the late 90'S till date, locating a good soil to sow my significant seeds has always been a top priority. I am constantly prayerfully looking or searching for Churches, Ministries, evangelical organizations & Christian missionaries to become their vision partner & support their God-given assignment.
As a believing Christian nobody can find or discover for you a spiritual good soil, that is an home work only you can and should do. The Holy Spirit will lead us individually per time to how, when & where to plant if we are already accustomed to hearing his voice which can only be developed as a result of fellowship with him.
Not every place of worship called Christian Centre, church, ministry, outreach or mission is a good soil. They may be preaching the Word of God and yet not be a good soil. They may be a praying church and yet not be a good soil. They might be a prophetic or even deliverance ministry and yet not be a good soil. They may be a traveling ministry, TV or music ministry and yet still not a good soil.
A good soil or group, is that church, ministry or Gospel minister that is called to carry out a specific God given assignment. You need to ask or find out from the ministry or church you are attached to, what is their specific God given vision or assignment.
*Is this place a Spirit filled church where the Holy Spirit and his operation are allowed to flow and not pigeon-holed?
*Does this place emphasize on evangelism, soul winning & growth in Christian living? Is this place a Word rooted and founded on Prayer and the Word of God?
* Does this church or ministry, believe in, teach, encourage and promote kingdom service? Does this church or ministry teach, encourage, promote and participate in giving and receiving, sowing and Reaping, Planting & Harvesting?
* Does this church or ministry have mission agency through which they help the needy, organs, widows & poor?
*Do they believe in the salvation of souls and have structure in place like crusades etc to ensure that souls are saved, won, nurtured and discipled in the ways of Jesus? If your answers to these questions are Yes then you have certainly found yourself a good spiritual soil. Go ahead begin to sow your seeds as led by the Holy Spirit.
In my life I can count how many churches and ministries that I have partnered with and sow my significant seeds. In all these years that I have been sowing seeds, none of these seeds & good soils has ever failed in yielding harvests to my life & ministry. Not only did I take my time to fast, pray & listen to the Holy Spirit before sowing to these places, I have always applied my faith and patience before, during and eventually when I physically handled my harvest.
Whether the kingdom principle of sowing and Reaping works or not is not a debate or argument any longer. It has been proved by the faithfuls to never fail. Everyone who has engaged in this principle prayerfully, faithfully, patiently and wisely, has never complained of been shortchanged.
The ways and acts of God are not man's. God has his ways of doing things. No Matter how much in need you are, it does not negate the truth that God has never failed. What he has promised, he will do. If you sow a seed and didnt get your harvest, the problem is not God neither the devil or even your seed but you. Only you can determine if you seed will bear fruit, grow and mature. God's responsibility is not to sow but yours. His is to give your sown seed a body and also ensure that he delivers on his promise to supply all your needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus.
In conclusion, I encourage you to take time to find and ascertain if the spiritual ground you intend to sow is a good one. If it is, you will receive a great harvest and If not, then you seed ends up a waste in dead & bad soil where you sowed.
I pray for you, myself and us, that we have the wisdom to sow our God given seed in good spiritual soils in 2018! I declare that we are not wasteful but resourceful and profitable people in 2018 in Jesus name! AMEN
