Gal. 6:7-8 “Do not be deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that will he also reap. For he that sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap life everlasting’
DAILY READING – Romans 1:16-32; 1 Samuel 9:1-10:16; Psalm 55
It is truly amazing that a graduate of mathematics from Harvard and who at 25 years old became the youngest assistant professor in the history of the University of California at Berkeley, could turn out to become a terrorist. But that is the story of Ted Kaczynski, famously known as the ‘Unabomber. At his arrest the question on many lips was what could have altered the course of this brilliant professor, to turn him to a terrorist. The answer was traced to an experiment done on him while he was still a teenager. He has gained admission to Harvard when he was only 16 years old and had participated in a psychological experiment where he had been hooked up to electrodes to measure his physiological response, while being subjected to hours of negative words. He participated in this experiment for more than 200 hours, lasting for three years. And the result of this intense exposure to negative words, was that his mental and emotional well-being suffered greatly.
After graduating from Harvard, at 25 years, Kaczynski became the youngest assistant professor in the history of the University of California at Berkeley. However, he would suddenly resign and begin living as a recluse in a remote cabin without electricity or running water outside Lincoln, Montana. It was from there that he eventually began to carry out his terrorist attacks. He conducted a series of attacks, using mail bombs to target academics, business executives and others. The FBI called his investigation “UNABOM” (for university and airline bomber) and the media thus dubbed the attacker the “Unabomber.” A 17 years nationwide manhunt began for Ted Kaczynski, which became the FBI’s longest and most expensive manhunt. He was finally caught in 1996 and since his arrest, he remains incarcerated, serving eight life sentences with no chance of parole at the Supermax security prison in Florence, Colorado.
Proverbs 4:23 says ‘Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.’
The mind can be likened to the control room of life and headquarters of a man’s existence, because it co-ordinates and controls the activities of a man. Whatever therefore accesses and dominates a man’s mind would eventually control him. Indeed as a man thinks in his heart so is he. The seeds you sow into your mind is what you eventually reap.
Luke 8:10-11; says ‘The seed is the word of God’
When we sow The Word of God in our hearts we reap the fruit of a glorious future. . Filling our hearts with the right knowledge is the key to freedom. Nothing approximates the power of Knowledge. It is the key to dominion. Indeed until something changes within you, nothing changes around you. It is when you sow the treasure of The Word of God into your heart, that your life begins to manifest His glory. Indeed God’s Word is full of glory and pregnant with wonders.
Psalms 119:18 says ‘Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law’..
You need a new mindset in order to experience a new lifestyle of glory this year. It is your mentality that determines your reality. Since every seed sown into the mind finds outward expression, we must carefully guard what accesses our mind. Instead of filling our hearts with chaff from social media or other media, let us rather commit to filling our minds with the precious seed of The Word of God, so that we can reap a harvest of the wonders of God in our lives. What constantly enters your heart though your eye gates and ear gates eventually determines your reality and controls your actions. The law of the mind is that what you put in is what you get out.
Gal. 6:7-8 says “Do not be deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that will he also reap. For he that sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap life everlasting’
Jesus said, by their fruits you shall know them. A child or adult produces the fruit of the seed sown in the heart.
Luke 6:45 says “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.”
The truth is that the harvest of your tomorrow depends on what seeds you sow into your mind today. Therefore in addition to praying and fasting in this season, let us diligently endeavor to sow the good seed of God’s Word into our hearts. We will harvest the prophesied glory for this season, when we sow the right seeds. Through diligent study of God’s Word, we will indeed reap a harvest of glory, signs and wonders all through this year in Jesus Name.
PRAYER: Lord, Please grant me the grace to fill my heart constantly with Your Word. May I have a renewed desire and appetite to constantly sow Your Word into my heart so that I can reap a harvest of glory, signs and wonders this year in Jesus Name. .
