Summary

In this message, Pastor Keion Henderson teaches on how believers can faithfully manage the critical time between sowing a seed and reaping a harvest. By drawing from Ecclesiastes 11 and the life of Saul, he explains that true blessing requires complete obedience rather than editing God's commands. Believers are encouraged to cast their seeds in full trust, surrender control, and remain faithful during the seasons of quiet growth.

Key Points

1.God differentiates between what He allows us to have and what He truly has designed for us based on our divine choice and obedience.
2.Samuel anointed Saul with a man-made flask and David with a God-made ram's horn, demonstrating that divine favor flows on obedience rather than human selection.
3.Editing God's direct commands—treating His unchangeable mandates like editable documents—eliminates His favor and causes believers to lose positioned blessings.
4.Natural seeds take long periods to grow into fruit-bearing trees, serving as an analogy for how spiritual investments require time and patience before yielding a return.
5.The law of the harvest is a perpetual law established by God that operates continuously regardless of location, background, or economic conditions.
6.Believers are instructed to cast their seeds out of reach rather than placing them nearby, preventing human interference with God's process.
7.God appreciates occasional good deeds, but He honors consistent obedience and faithful stewardship over time.

Sermon Moments

“God gives his commands in PDF file. You keep converting it to Word doc.”

“The oil doesn't flow on our choices. The oil flows on our obedience.”

“The danger of being obedient is mismanaging the silence in between the seed and the harvest.”

“God will dry up the water to see if you'll trust him with the process.”

“The seed is no respecter of person. As long as it's getting light outside and dark at night... you can trust that when you release a seed, it is in a system that God alone controls.”

“People who keep asking for clarity are trying to disguise their disobedience.”

“God loves what we do occasionally, but he honors what we do consistently.”

This Week

Stop editing God's direct instructions to fit personal convenience or fear.
Release full control of what you give to God instead of attempting to retrieve or monitor it.
Develop patience during the quiet gap between your obedience and your harvest.
Use your financial or material overflow to bless others rather than hoarding resources.
Rely on God as your ultimate provider rather than placing sole trust in employment or economic stability.
Align your private financial habits and decisions with your public declarations of faith.
Commit to consistent stewardship and generosity rather than giving sporadically.

Remember This

Faithful obedience requires casting your seed completely into God's hands and trusting Him through the silent period between sowing and reaping.

A Challenge for You

Release your seeds into God's perpetual system, trust His unedited commands, and stand in faith expecting God to bring forth a manifold harvest in His time.
