We Reap What We Sow
Job 31-32; Galatians 5-6 “’I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a girl…If my steps have turned from the path, if my heart has been led by my eyes, or if my hands have been defiled, then may others eat what I have sown, and may my crops be uprooted.’” Job 31:1, 7, 8 “…do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature…A man reaps what he sows.” Galatians 5:13; 6:7 Indulging our sinful nature will affect our capacity to reap a spiritual harvest. The Lord of the harvest is calling out workers who have made a covenant with their eyes not to lust and who have disciplined their feet not to leave the path of God’s ways. When we use our spiritual freedom in Christ to further indulge our sinful nature, we will reap what we sow and others will eat the good harvest we have invested in, or our harvest will be uprooted. God’s discipline is good and meant to produce a harvest of peace and righteousness for those who have been trained by it (Hebrews 12:11). Character matters if
