Text : Psalm 126: 5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

When you think about this message, somehow you will have a kind of hope that God has planned for you, which is also the major purpose of this message.

This is a comforting message, my people. There is Hope in Zion. I’d like you to allow the light of Hope be on as you are reading this. Believe God that it shall come to manifest very fast and very soon in your life in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

For you, whose harvest is coming, there must have been planting happened.
But those who didn’t plant, dont expect or must not expect the harvest.
Probably, you have planted and made some efforts, this is a good news for you.

In our passage, Psalm 126: 5 – For those who sow in tears, without a doubt, they are about to reap a harvest joyfully very soon.
Somehow, the time of sowing and planting are not all that easy. They plant when there’s rainfall or sunshine, they feel the heat and pain, yet they continue to plant regardless of what the weather is with a certain hope.

That one day, there will be joy. So also with you, my dear readers, that there are some areas of your life that you were planting and were expecting a great harvest but maybe you haven’t seen anything. It seems as if you will think, Is my effort in vain? No, your effort is not in vain.
God has sent me to tell you that everything you have planted, there’s a time of harvest coming near you.

You plant by giving your life to Jesus Christ while the world lives in sin, they drink but you don’t. You tried your best to plant a Godly life there’s a reward for it. You plant many times serving God in His house, sharing His Word, and giving your money and time for His works . They’re not all in vain. All those you have done for the Lord with your talents, times and treasures are in planting seasons and the Bible says, you shall harvest with joy..

Probably, your planting may be painful and now as you are reading this article , you are sowing in tears without smiling and laughing the way you did it as you see the contrary to it , for it stresses you but that’s not the end of you. The Faithful God in this world says, those who plant even in sorrow or weeping, a day shall come for a harvest of joy.

Let me show you more and have a deeper learning from this passage.
Psalm 126 : 6 – in the going forth weeping and bearing Precious Seed.
Oh, I love that, Let me stop over a little bit.
I’m talking about what He said, in that going on planting, carrying the seed, keeping on yet no one is comforting at what the sower is passing through.

Continuously planting, i know some of you know what I’m talking about here especially those who have rice fields or some other things in the garden., You can understand what I’m trying to say.

Then some say, when they are planting, it’s weeping and crying as they keep on sowing, they are having pain presently .But the Bible says, that the seeds in their hands are Precious Seeds. You feel a certain pain, stress, unhappiness the way you are supposed to do. It’s not because God is giving you punishment, but because of the Precious Seed in your life, it’s different to other seeds as it is an incorruptible seed of God . A kind of seed that will bring joy to many generations, to the people around you and to God’s kingdom.

That’s why sometimes it seems like you are passing through a kind of pain while others are not. Don’t be discouraged nor distracted but try to understand what the Bible is saying, as you carry your Precious Seed even in the time of pain yet you continue planting and sowing. Look at what Psalm 126: 6 says, He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing Precious Seed shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
Hallelujah!!.

When He was planting, He was crying and feeling the pain while people were mocking him, rejecting him , he said without any doubt and as that person came back with joy and great harvest.
I can see your harvest coming somebody. I’m glad to announce to you that all your efforts are not in vain. All your planting is recorded in the book of God in heaven. Every pain you are passing through now is just to make your Precious Seed turn into fruitfulness. Your season of fruitfulness is very near. All you need to do is to continue planting in hope and never have any doubt, that’s why He used that word doubtless, without any doubt, their fruits shall surely manifest. They will harvest the reward very soon. Human beings may not reward you yet, they might have processed you but just continue to plant a good seed.

The good seed can be planted in many, many ways. It could be of your labor in the Lord, it may be your secular job, secular business, or your busy working everyday. But it’s not enough for you and your family. You’re feeling the pain, oh I’m tired of this, I’m in a challenge like this,. If this is for me alone, I would have the feeling , I have to pay for these bills, and that one . Don’t worry, it’s just a planting of weeping and it will turn to joy very soon. You are going to harvest. Everyday you wake up, and you are planting. It simply means that you are moving closer to your day of harvest into your day of joyful harvest so keep moving. Dont be weary. Don’t stop.

The Bible says, without any doubt, you’re going to have a testimony. Hallelujah!
Let us look at this man in the Bible as our case study, a Covenant Father, the first promised child, I’m talking about Isaac. A vessel who had a Covenant Direction before he was born. That a promised child is going to be prospered and to be successful..
He traveled to a strange land because his father Abraham was a traveler, moving from one place to another according to how God guides Him together with his wife. Isaac grew up. He also travels along the line together with his wife Rebekah, they encounter challenges.

Some of you, may have read their story. There are some areas like his wife being snatched along the way. Thank God, God rescued them. He found himself in a land full of struggle, famine, and drought .
People were dying and crying for starvation and thirst.

Being a farmer, he needed water for the plants to grow and germinate. Also for animals not to be dehydrated. Somehow, the experiences were so confusing. How could he be there? He could picture his crying before God. God, why am I in a place like this? Have you brought me here and just killed me? How can I survive in this place?
He packed his luggage and wanted to move .
I’m sure that some of you have read about this story from Genesis 26:2 , God answered him and said, ” Boy, you’re not allowed to get out of this country. Stay where I placed you , I’m going to prosper you here, if you will move, you will miss it all “. .Oh, God!
Probably, you find yourself in a place where you are crying to God. God, have you forgotten me? Why am I in this situation? Why are my friends better than me? Why can’t I be like them? Why am I suffering like this? That’s what you expect. I’m glad to tell you, that God who made a way for Isaac is the same God, who as well sent me to you is going to make your harvest happen joyfully soon. In every aspect you have cried alone. Your heart is crying and nobody sees your tears outside, but God has seen your inner tears. He is going to turn into open miracles soon in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen. Dont be discouraged, dont give up, day by day you are.moving closer back to your harvest. Hallelujah.

The Bible says in Genesis 26: 12 Then, Isaac sowed in that land and received in the same year a hundredfold in the same year a hundredfold and the Lord Blessed him.
In the same land where he was crying and dying in famine, where it seems as if there’s a pandemic everywhere. In the same land in the same year, God blessed Isaac.
Friends, I’m glad to tell you , it is your turn to be blessed and to have a joyful harvest. Believe God with me, He’s on the way coming.
All you need to understand is that God made a way for Isaac, the same year with a hundredfold of rewards, He’s going to do it in your life. He will bless you and give you joy. Don’t forget I have made mention of the two things for you to qualify.

  1. Continue to sow – keep sowing in hope, don’t doubt. Even when there’s no sign of anything coming. Continue and keep sowing in hope.
    In your job, ministry, and dream towards the fulfillment of what God has revealed to you.. When there’s no sign, keep sowing, dont doubt, continue and continue and continue. Don’t say, oh, I’m tired, I’ve been living a Godly life , I’ve been staying in the Lord, but nothing happens.. I’d rather go back to the world. No, continue to sow your life in hope because after , it’s going to bring forth a great fruitfulness. You’re going to harvest joyfully by authority in the mighty name of Jesus Christ,
    Another thing, I’d like you to understand is that those who will harvest joyfully must be ready to obey.

2 .Obey absolutely – what do I mean by that? Most of the time, when you are planting, the instructions of God may be painful , maybe an added pain or additional to the pain. Just think about this man Isaac. He has seen how everything didn’t work in the land. How famine strikes everywhere. He wanted to get out of it. He wanted to escape. I’m sure that his expectations were that he will hear God say , Boy, get out, this place is the wrong place , I’m taking you somewhere else .. Isaac might say, Wow, thank You, Lord at last again.

But God didn’t say that. God told him, Stay in this land which I have shown you. Oh God, there is famine. God says, Stay there. God, no rain, it’s hot. The ground is so hot, how can we plant? God said, Stay there! When you are digging the ground, having a wound on your hand, and crying as if nobody comforts you.. Stay for what it qualifies you for harvest..

Absolute obedience is next to sowing continuously.

Because if you do it yourself or in your own way it will become a regret after. You can run out of your own land, your own place of destiny . When you want to cut short the way , “oh how long must I wait ? ” , “i’m tired of that”. I heard a man of God, who was storing in a certain city , it’s a small city. As he was pastoring there , he was in a lot of struggle. No money , things are not working , but he was doing fine . His members are coming hundreds , and increasing. One thing he said , “No, the best place to get the best money is the capital city”. “I’m not going to be here , I am going to the capital city”. So he moved to the capital city of the country and at the end everything closed down . There was nothing to continue again. Don’t do it your own way. Don’t think you are wise in your own sight , you can leave that thing you are doing now and say I’m going to another job. If God didn’t order your step , it will be a regret in the end . Continue to sow in Him , continue to do what is right , obey absolutely so that your reward should be delivered to you joyfully . The Lord has sent me to you and the word has sent me to you is you will harvest joyfully very soon . Keep it up, don’t allow any devil to deceive you that no reward is coming. It is just a matter of time and day. Don’t forget your planting , remember , after some rainfall , you’re going to have a great harvest. Right now, this Word of God you are reading is rain upon what you have planted. Soon and very soon you shall have your harvest. Thank you. May the Lord bless you.
