This Week, start with a simple 4 step process to begin to learn more about the creative, fruit bearing seed within you that is just waiting to burst free and produce generational changing financial resources.
“So God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of the entire earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you” - Genesis 1:29 AMP
S: Strategic Soaking
Before planting, farmers will sometimes strategically germinate seeds. With just the right amount of oxygen, lighting, temperature and timing, the natural defenses of the seed’s hard shell will begin to break down, allowing the seed to reveal itself and sprout. This week strategically soak your seed in God’s word daily. “Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.” Psalms 126:5 CSB. Soaking our seeds in tears, strategically setting aside specific time and surroundings to soak our seeds in the emotion of God’s presence, will start to break down the hard outer shell we have built from life’s trials to reveal the fruitful seed within us He wants to show in His daily time together. ACTION - How are you creating a specific time and environment to spend time with God to soak your seed each day?
E: Entrusting
So many pray for additional financial resources to bless their lives, asking God to entrust into their care an overflow. However, many have not prepared their stronger nets to be entrusted to capture, utilize or invest the additional amounts. Like Adam and Eve in Genesis, God gave each of us a Garden, a specific amount of money He has entrusted us with. A specific amount that reflects how our Seed has been planted and tended to. ACTION - Write daily ways you are specifically planting, using, investing in your gift, your creative seed you have been entrusted with to produce resources.
E: Eager
Remember what it was like to want to please your parents or a teacher, seeing the look of joy on their face? Like a young child eager to please, being eager is defined as wanting to do something or have something VERY much. Esther was eager to save her people. The servant given the talents was eager to please by immediately going to double the money. Mary Magdalene was eager to wash Jesus’s feet with expensive perfume. Being eager is something we each struggle with as life’s trials wear us down. However, as you uncover your seed, let’s also reignite our eagerness to discover how our Seed can serve God in its ability to produce additional resources. ACTION - Draw out a 12 Month Plan / Setting Financial Goals 1 Month, 3 Months, 6 Months & 12 Months
D ~ Diligence
“But while everyone was sleeping his enemy came and sowed weeds among the Wheat” Matthew 13:25. The last key step in uncovering your seed and starting your journey to strategically grow your financial resources, is through diligence. Consistency in our diligence is a struggle that can deflate or elevate our finances. It is a true test of ability to step on fear as we step up our faith. God gave us each a specific garden to tend. Without diligence in our gardens, in our finances, in the identity of our creative, fruit bearing seed, weeds can quickly grow and choke out our harvest. ACTION - Set a Board Meeting with yourself each week, to sit down with one piece of paper reviewing your garden, your action steps, your financial steps taken and to be planted.
Uncovering your seed in four simple steps is about to strategically align your finances with God in a new season of financial favor. Through soaking your perfect gift in Him every day, entrusting daily the resources your gift can produce, drawing out strategic goals and diligently reviewing your garden’s overall wealth, your perfect gift from above will emerge from the shadows of fear into the abundant faith of financial multiplication through your fruitful seed for generations to come.
In Wealthy Blessings,
