Series: Greater Reward Week 3: Don’t Give Up
In most cases, when people are really successful, at least in some area of their life, they’re not just lucky, but they’re consistent.
Successful people do consistently what other people do occasionally.
Intentions don’t determine direction; actions determine direction.
Hope doesn’t change your life; habits change your life.
It’s the small things that no one sees that lead to the big results everyone wants.
Galatians 6:7-9.
“Do not be deceived:” means don’t be led astray or don’t be stupid, don’t be fooled. “God cannot be mocked” means to thumb your nose up, to snub.
3 Laws of Sowing and Reaping.
- You reap what you sow. Hosea 10:13
If you don’t like what you’re reaping, change what you’re sowing. If you don’t like the harvest, change the seed.
- You reap more than you sow. Mark 4:20.
It’s not what we do occasionally that makes the difference; it’s what we do consistently.
- You reap after you sow.
Our entire life is the sum total of all the decisions that we make. In every action, you’re choosing a direction.
We all want something different, something better in our lives.
If our identity is wrong, then the cycle is bad.
Christ in me is stronger than the wrong desires in me.
We’re not trying, but we’re in training.
The Holy Spirit helps us to choose what we want most over what we want now.
We don’t judge the success of the day by the harvest we reap, but we judge it by the seeds that we sow.
Galatians 6:9.
The small things that no one sees lead to the big results everyone wants.
