2 Corinthians 9:10

“Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness”

STRONGS HEBREW/GREEK ORIGINS

“Now He who supplies (epichoregeo: ministers, furnishes) seed (sperma: something sown, implication of offspring, a remnant) to the sower (speiro: one who scatters and seeds) and bread for food will supply and multiply (plethuno: abound, increase) your seed for sowing and increase the harvest (gennema: fruit, that which has been born, offspring, prolonged growth and enlargement) of your righteousness (dikaiosune: state of him who is as he ought to be, righteousness, the condition acceptable to God; the doctrine concerning the way in which man may attain a state approved of God; integrity, virtue, purity of life, rightness, correctness of thinking feeling, and acting).”

SUMMARY

God who supplies the necessary seed to sow as well as the food for us to eat, will also increase our offspring, spiritually speaking, as it is righteousness in His eyes that is the harvest.

MEDITATION

Do you find yourself seeking your Supplier? Do you truly believe that God will actually work with you to bring about a harvest of righteousness? We are His “representatives” here on the earth and He wants to supply His people with His righteousness. Take some time today to examine what stage your field of righteousness is in. Is the field full of beautiful mature stalks? Is it at least beginning to sprout up and be seen or do you need to go out to the field and sow some seed? Today, in the midst of your day, seek to work this field in order to be found pleasing to God and capable to produce holy offspring unto Him.
