WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5
Scripture: Mark 4:26-29
Mark 4:26-29 says, “And He said, ‘The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.’” In the same way a farmer sows seed for a physical harvest we can sow seed for a spiritual harvest. Who would not want a spiritual harvest of Psalm 110:1 as quoted the day the Holy Spirit came upon the church. Psalm 110 says, “The Lord said to my Lord, ‘Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.’ The Lord shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies! Your people shall be volunteers In the day of Your power; In the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning, You have the dew of Your youth. The Lord has sworn And will not relent, ‘You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek.’ The Lord is at Your right hand; He shall execute kings in the day of His wrath. He shall judge among the nations, He shall fill the places with dead bodies, He shall execute the heads of many countries. He shall drink of the brook by the wayside; Therefore He shall lift up the head.” One version records the last line as, “He shall stand with His people.” Let’s sow this in the soil of our hearts and we will be ready for anything when that harvest comes up.
