Sowing

“A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was trampled down, and the birds of the air devoured it.
Luke 8:5 (NKJV)

The Sower here was someone who was invested in his/her future. One with the a fervent expectation for an expected end and bountiful outcome. He was liberal in his sowing.The idea was he sowed generously wherever he went. Even though some fell on stony ground where it was rejected, some on thorny and hostile ground where the seed was choked and some on good ground that brought forth an incredible ROI (return on investment).

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,...
2 Corinthians 9:10 (NKJV)

Sowing is done in the physical, but the multiplication and increase is divine. It is in our interest to sow.

Sow your seed

“Behold, a sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds came and devoured them. Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth; and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth. But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered away. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them. But others fell on good ground and yielded a crop: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Matthew 13:3-8 (NKJV)

The sower is out in the world to sow seed in the hearts of men and women. Many will reject and be hostile to the sown seed, while many will take it for face value, describing it as desirable but lacking any commitment to it. Others will stunt the growth of the seed with legitimate concerns of life, while the reception of others to the seed will nurture the seed to fullness resulting in abundance to all sufficiency.

Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.
Hosea 10:12 (NKJV)

Are you good ground for the sown seed? To yield to abundance and all sufficiency, the ground must be good for nurturing and conducive for the seed to thrive to full potential.
