BREAK UP YOUR FALLOW  GROUND


Jeremiah 4:3, “Break up your fallow ground, And do not sow among thorns."

Just like farmers have to prepare the ground to bear fruit, we must prepare ourselves to receive from God this year. We must be ready for greater glory.

The expression, “Break up your fallow ground" means, to prepare your minds to bring forth fruit unto God. To break off your bad habits; clear junks from your hearts, work on your attitude, take away hatred, bitterness, lust, and greed. These are thorns that has been chocking your seeds, preventing them from germinating, and growing to maturity to producing fruits.

In our passage, Jeremiah makes the people to understand that if they do not "Break up their fallow ground
They will be sowing among thorns." In other words, they will sow seed, but because they didn't bother to prepare the soil and pull out the thorns, the seed will have little or no effect. 

You can't keep being the same person year in year out nor doing things same way and expect a different result, you must change yourself and your approach towards life. Sowing amongst thorns significance struggle, You have struggled enough, take away the things that will Chock your efforts and you'll experience bountiful harvest. 

Secondly, fallow ground could also be untapped potentials. We need to take advantage of the hidden treasures of our potentials, tap into its resources. There's so much in us that has not yet been broken into, and we need to break them up if we want to do exploits this year. 

Thus you have to stop dreaming and start doing, stop procrastinating, stop wasting your years expecting heaven to fall manner, it is time to put your potential to work. Break up your fallow ground.

COME UP HITHER

COME UP HITHER And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. Revelation 11:12 KJV The call of the Spirit of God is always to a Higher Place, to see more, to know more, to receive more and to be more in God. The Christian Life by design is one of ever increasing glory ..... No glory is ever enough, we are to Go Up Hither for more glory because it is always from one level of glory unto another. 2Corintians 3:18 says, But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. Similarly, in Proverbs 4:18 we are told, But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day . There is always more and more and more for us to grasp in Christ but for us to get them, we must Go Up Hither. It is in the place of Going Up Hither ...

YOU ARE A GOOD SEED  By Elizabeth I. Abaye Oftentimes, when things are not going in our direction or in the way we expected.... When life becomes rough and unbearable people begin to think that something is wrong with them or that they have been given bad destiny. This is the reason many pray for God to change their destiny.... They even sing it in worships. They tend to forget that they are God's creation and His dear children and all that God made is good and his seed is in all his children. There's none made or born with defected destiny... You are perfectly made with a marvelous destiny. Now look at what the scripture says about the good seed, He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;  The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;  Matthew 13:37‭-‬38 (KJV), Are you Born Again? then you have the seed of the glorious God  in you because you're His dear c...

 KEEPING THE RIGHT COMPANY  By Elizabeth I. Abaye  1 Corinthians 15:33 says, "Don't be deceived, bad company corrupts good character." (CEB)  The people you hangout with, and spend time with matters in life and can affect your purpose positively or negatively.  You are born to be great but you can't achieve greatness by spending time with the scornful, the unserious minded people. Keeping the right kinds of company will add value to your life.  They are many who get inspiration from God that would have taken them to their estate of greatness but because they have been mingling with the wrong set of  people, they are not able to put their God given ideas to work.  Every time spent with those who are not doing any relevant thing to move their life forward to the next level is a waste of your potential. And for every wasted time you lost, you are losing great opportunity and money. You need to put your potentials to work so you can achieve purpose an...
