Payday Is Coming by Jewels From The Word

 

How do you get paid? By the job? By the month? In tips? Once a week? 

My first job was working after school at the Hotel Vinita Coffee Shop, which I began in the late summer of 1965 just before rodeo week. From then till June, 2003, when I started drawing a monthly check, I received a paycheck every two weeks at each job I held. 

God has a payday system in place in the universe. Spring is the season of planting, summer is the time of growth, fall is the time of harvest, and winter is the time of rest and reflection. 

God doesn't always pay on Friday. He promises us that we will be rewarded but some rewards are given here and some in heaven. Don't give up just because you don't see any results. Each seed has a germination time, growth time, a flowering time, seed-setting time, then the harvest. Some tomatoes ripen by 4th of July, but some not until August. 

In 2 Corinthians 9:10 says "Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness." 

"Now" means at this very moment in time, not the past, not the future. What God is doing for us is in the "Now." Time is always “Now” to the eternal God, so His 'now' and your 'now' may not be the same. 

God is the source of the seed which we plant and the food we eat. He gives us enough seed to plant and to make into bread to eat. God will multiply the seed you have sown, not the seed you have eaten. 

And it all depends on your sowing. Galatians 6:7, 9 says, "whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." 

Keep sowing, because harvest time is coming any day now.
