Proverbs 11: 24, 25, (NIV)
One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes other will himself be refreshed.
WE REAP MORE THAN WE SOW; THE HARVEST IS GREATER THAN THE SEED.
There is another law that is universal, we reap more than we sow.
When we sow a seed into the ground, the plant carries seed in its fruit and that seed is far more than the original first seed. Each fruit gives an abundance of seeds for the next planting, which will produce more fruit and more seeds. This law is applicable to every phase of life. If you sow the seed of love, you will reap an abundance of love, which carries the seeds for more love to grow.
In Matthew, you find that the LORD says that the seed is the Word of GOD. When the Word is planted in the heart of a person, it will bring forth much fruit to the glory of GOD. If the Word of GOD brings forth much fruit, then our words carry seeds also. When we speak a word, we plant seeds which bring forth an abundance of harvest. We need to be careful what words we speak, that those words bring forth the fruit of righteousness, and conform to the Word of GOD.
Think about the story of the feeding of the 5,000 men plus women and children, with a little boys lunch ( John 6: 9-13). Remember the story of the widow of Zerephat (I Kings 17:10-16)
The very little seed, produced an abundance and all were fed.
