Too often, people are looking to God for the wrong thing. People love miracles, and I do too. Yet we are not to live for miracles. Miracles are a result of a crisis. 

When people do not live by the laws of God and a crisis comes, they have God's Word that He is on their side and wants to deliver them.

We are not limited to living from crisis to crisis. We are to live by the fruit we produce.  Remember: Increase is a result of seedtime and harvest. God's Word is His will in seed form. 

In any area of life in which we need a harvest, we need only to plant the seeds of His promise. Healing, peace, love and joy are just some of the results that are increased by sowing the seeds of God's Word.

Anything we have can become a seed that we sow. If we need love, we sow love. If we need joy, we plant joy. If we need peace, we need to be peace makers. The principle is clear: God has given us the tools to receive any harvest we need. 

Begin by planting a seed.
