I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:48  Hello, Happy FYF. Happy Friday. Happy Fuck Yeah Friday, where we get some inspiration, we have a little bit of fun, we celebrate your wins and mine, and we leave with a little affirmation or mantra or just something to kick our weekend off. Thank you so much for being here. If you're new to the Be It Till You See It Podcast, we do interviews on Tuesday, recaps on Thursday, and this is my time to share a win of yours. You can send your wins into beitpod.com/questions as we can send your questions as well, but you can also send your wins. And I want them. I want more wins from you. Lesley Logan 1:15  So something that inspired me, or like sometimes I feel like it can be educational. So they erased the 13th month because it was ruled by women. So this is from Stella Porta on Instagram. And this is interesting because I definitely had done some research and learned how, like, we got the Roman calendar, which is, like, makes no sense, and we have winter starting the new year off in the middle of winter, which makes zero sense. We should start the middle. We should start the year off at Spring, right? I just think so. But okay, here we go. Before the church ruled time, women followed a different calendar, one based not on the sun, but on the moon. It had 13 months of 28 days, mirroring the menstrual cycle. This wasn't just myth. It was math, 13 times 28 equals 364. Plus one holy day equals 365, Brad just walked in and I just blew his mind. So by the way, the Instagram has sources. So if you're like, this is baloney. No, it's not. There's like little sources. This lunar calendar shaped everything. It had four sacred weeks per month, New Waxing, Full and Waning. Sabbaths were tied to moon phases and a full year, called a year and a day, a phrase still found in spells and folklore. I have seen that in some stuff, and I was like, whoa, that's interesting. So a year and a day, right? Cultures around the world honored it. Maya, Maya women said that their calendar came from menstruation. Chinese women divided the sky into 28 lunar mansions, and in Gaelic words for menstruation and calendar are the same, miosach and miosachan. I don't know, M-I-O-S-A-C-H and M-I-O-S-A-C-H-A-N. So there you go. The Romans used the word menstruation for measuring time. It comes from mensura, measure, from the same root, we get mensis, month and the word menses, the monthly cycle. So one is mensis, maybe, and menses. A woman's body was the first clock, mind blown. But this body-based time was slowly erased. The church replaced the 13-moon year with a 12-month solar one. They called 13 unlucky, moon rites became witchcraft, even menstruation became taboo. Still the signs survived. Witch covens honor the number 13, The 13 Treasures of Britain. Sow with 13 teats in Malta's temples, Twelfth Night fires, 12 small flames, plus one large one to represent the 13th moon of the new year. So lots of little people, just like keeping that history around. I love it, generations, hundreds of years later, right? The church flipped time inside out. Pagans began their days at sunset. The Saxon word for day actually meant night. Good night was once good den or good moonday. Christianity didn't release the goddess calendar. It was rebranded. Christmas Eve equals the pagan night of the mother. Easter equals set by the first full moon after the spring equinox. May Eve, Midsummer Eve, Llamas Eve, All Hallow's Eve, all began as a lunar right. This is interesting. This source that's here I started on another podcast. Pretty much every amazing holiday used to be a pagan holiday, and then the church just rebranded it. So anyways, always good to know where these things came from because I just think you should know. I think you should know what things really are. Alright. They tried to rewrite time, to flatten her curves into straight lines, but the moon cycles never left. They pulse in the mirror of stories and the tides of women in the hush between full moons. And now she's being remembered, not as superstition, but as origin. So hopefully I can get this girl who posted this on the pod. I really. She was cool. And I thought this information is cool. And ladies, we need to know. Right? Time was actually all about us. And I just think that's amazing. Lesley Logan 5:08  So okay, a win of yours. Lisa MacDonald, had a summer cancelation hole on my schedule, but turned what could be considered a negative to a positive, and did Boom Boom Pow! with Lesley on the Reformer, finished with my boomerang on the mat, stood up and said awesome out loud, it felt great. Such a win. Coming off my duet session with Lesley and Melissa Hargrove last night, I felt strong, connected and fabulous. Thank you, Lesley, for inspiring me to look for a win and celebrate. Lisa MacDonald, of course, of course. Lisa is an OPC member. She's done my mentorship program, and so the Boom Boom Pow! was one of the OPC classes. And at OPC, we have a name for every class you have access to it for two weeks. And it's really fun when you get, if you're a teacher, you get a cancelation and you take class because then you get to have extra time with your Pilates practice, which I love. Lesley Logan 5:57  Okay, my win didn't get celebrated last week. We were out of town, and I wanted to make sure I told you, Brad and I celebrated 10 years of being married last week, which is insanity. It's so crazy. I don't know if you maybe this is maybe I'm not the only one, but please let me know if you feel like you are. Like, hold on, how long I've been with this person, or how long I've been doing any anniversary, right? Like, how long have I been doing this? Like it felt like we just got married, and actually, obviously we haven't, but, like, doesn't feel like it's been 10 years, which I guess is great, but then I look back and I'm like, wow, we have done so much in 10 years, like, an insane amount in 10 years. And it's really cool, because this is, like, the first time we have so much more to go and so much more to grow, but just really grateful that we got to celebrate that together, because sometimes our anniversaries line up where we are on a plane and we're together, but like, one of us probably sleeping, and also several times it's happened where we've, like, taken off on a flight on the second, we've landed on the fourth, because we lost today. So it's really nice that we were around together in the daylight hours, not on a plane, able to actually celebrate our 10 year anniversary, which is really, really great. So normally, the wins are something that you want to celebrate. Sometimes they're big, like a 10 year, you know, I'll celebrate 11 as well, but I think it's important that, you know, we celebrate wins, big or small. In the coming months, we're going to have a Habits Series on the program, and one of the biggest things you can start doing to big habits happen is start to notice the things that you actually are getting done, the wins that are actually happening in your life. All right, there's little ones every single day, and we are just not taking enough time to celebrate what we did do. And you know what? Maybe you've got a lot going on in your life, and the only thing to celebrate is that you took a shower and you put on a different change of clothes. That's a huge win. If that was the hardest thing you could do in the day. You know, like, I think you I think we have to start giving ourselves credit for what we have done. And I really, I interviewed someone to be on the pod, and I really like what they're saying. There's so many people who are doing outward actions to get outward affirmation, versus looking and glowing from within, and you can only do that if you're actually recognizing that you're doing really great stuff based in grace, babe. Lesley Logan 8:13  All right, your mantra. You ready for it? I do not rise and fall for another. I do not rise and fall for another. I do not rise and fall for another. No, you don't. You rise. You rise for you. Got it? So easy to do it for other people, and it hurts because it's hard that way. So I do not rise and fall for another. Lesley Logan 8:39  You guys, have an amazing week. We've got a great guest coming up next week. Can't wait for you to hear it and until then, Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 8:46  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

In this encore presentation of October in the Garden, Joanne Shaw reviews some of the tasks you can do this month, but don't worry, it's not as labour-intensive as you think! Tasks you can do this month: Vegetable Gardens Clean up and remove the old stems of your tomato or pepper plants that have stopped producing. Sow cool-weather plants like lettuce and some spinach: they grow better in the shoulder seasons, late spring /early summer or fall. Buy plants at a garden centre or start seeds and sow them right into the garden. Top up the vegetable garden with some compost or manure to get ahead of next year. Take pictures so you know where plants are because next year you may need to put things in different places. Plant a cover crop. Containers If you want to take advantage of the nice weather at the beginning of October, take your vegetables out of their containers and pop in an aster. Annuals and Perennials Annuals: With no frost anytime soon, annuals are probably still doing okay. They may be a little bit leggy or sad-looking. Perk them up with water and fertilizer. Perennials: No need to cut them back. You can do some deadheading if things are really looking brown and not necessarily attractive. Deciduous Trees and Shrubs Trees: It is important to water deciduous trees, especially young ones, certainly ones that you just planted this year. Water them deeply every week. Evergreen shrubs: Enjoy the fall colour and shape of your shrubs. Cutting them back now is not necessary. Keep newly planted shrubs well-watered. They need some extra time to get established. Being in a drought situation as they go into dormancy in winter is never a good thing. Seeds and Bulbs It's a good time to buy and plant your garlic. Spring bulbs: find and buy bulbs – just don't plant them until the end of October, or the beginning of November! I recommend not planting tulips, but instead looking at the interesting varieties of daffodils or alliums Daffodils and alliums are poisonous to squirrels and other rodents, so they will leave them alone. Lawn Care Time to apply fall fertilizer. Pay attention to the weeds, especially crabgrass which is prolific this time of year Apply corn gluten to act as a preemergent, preventing the weed seeds from germinating. It's best to apply during spring and fall. Resources Mentioned in the Show: Down the Garden Path: A Step-By-Step Guide to Your Ontario Garden Have a topic you'd like me to discuss?

It's been 1,239 days since my last episode…and it feels so good to say those words again! Welcome to Season 3 of the Sow What podcast.When I first launched this show back in 2020, the vision was simple: helping people make intentional choices that lead to a life of purpose, rest, and adventure. Three years, a pause, and a lot of life later—that vision hasn't changed. In fact, it's grown deeper and more personal.In this episode, I'm sharing where I've been, why this podcast is coming back now, and what it looks like to live out the very heartbeat of Sow What in the everyday moments of marriage, motherhood, leadership, and growth. We'll talk about the power of pauses, the beauty of intentional rhythms, and why sowing faithfully always leads to a harvest.So here's the big question as we step into this new season together: Sow what? What are you choosing to plant in your life today?✨FIND ME ON INSTAGRAM:@mrsannamcguireYou can watch Sow What on YouTube here:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC93MGPKoXsFs5zeOyJFEOHA

In this powerful and practical episode, Scott sits down with Kristy Mandour—nationally recognized communication coach, emotional intelligence expert, and host of the Sow to Speak podcast—to unpack the conversations that most leaders avoid… and why that's a problem. If you've ever hesitated to speak up, avoided holding someone accountable, or struggled to navigate tough conversations at work or at home, this one is for you.Kristy shares the science and strategy behind her “Lead Out Loud” method and “C.A.R.E.” framework, which empowers leaders to communicate with clarity, curiosity, and compassion—without burning out or bottling things up. This conversation will challenge how you think about accountability, reframe the stories you tell yourself, and help you lead with integrity, confidence, and connection.What you'll learn:• Why avoiding hard conversations is often a sign that you care—and why that's not enough• How to turn “accountability” into a form of support instead of punishment• The C.A.R.E. framework and how it helps you prep, regulate, and lead powerfully• Tips to shift from fear-based micromanaging to values-driven leadership• How these same communication tools apply to parenting, marriage, and life outside the office---Episode Markers:(0:00) - Meet Kristy Mandour(1:25) - The Origins of "Lead Out Loud"(3:35) - Having Meaningful Conversations with Your Team(6:05) - Micromanaging vs. Managing with Curiosity and Care(7:00) - Accountability & Difficult Conversations(11:30) - Being Curious(13:00) - To Be Unclear is Unkind(14:45) - Preparation as a Leader(17:45) - Significance of Setting & Intentions(23:20) - Communicating Positivity(24:50) - Regulating with Movement(26:35) - The Connection Between Leadership and Parenting(28:20) - Immediate Action Steps(30:00) - C.A.R.E.

God has placed His kingdom, power, and glory inside of you—and in this message, I show you how to activate it through revelation, faith, and obedience. You're not just a churchgoer; you are God's representative, called to live in a supernatural flow of life daily. Every limitation in your life is being removed. Debt cancellation, soul restoration, health, and promotion are being released as you yield to the Spirit and step into your divine rights. The anointing you wear now cannot be stopped.This isn't hype—it's revelation knowledge backed by demonstration. I teach you how to frame your world with the Word of God and walk in unstoppable favor. Good success is invading your life, and the days of failure, delay, and struggle are over. You're not waiting on heaven—you're bringing heaven to earth. You're being anointed with promotion by God's permission, and no one can stop it.September 28, 2025 | SUNDAY AMSunday Morning LiveLeroy Thompson TV FULL VIDEO LINK - Living In A Supernatural Flow of Life Daily⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://leroythompson.tv/programs/sun092825⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CONNECT NOW - BECOME A PARTNER ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/partnership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Connect" to 225-230-2234 To GIVE/SOW click the link below! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Sow" to 225-230-2234TESTIMONY?Email your testimonies to victory@eiwm.orgMORE LINKS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/drleroysr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In this transformative apostolic message, I reveal the powerful secrets of soul control that every believer must understand to walk in true freedom and spiritual authority. Too often, the church has failed to equip us with the revelation needed to overcome the struggles rooted in the soul—our mind, will, emotions, and imagination. Tonight, that ends. Through the Word of God, you will learn how to bring your soul under divine control and unlock peace, power, and clarity in every area of your life.This message is a call to shift from religious routine to spiritual mastery. As you listen, expect strongholds to be broken, emotional burdens to be lifted, and divine wisdom to be released. You're being equipped to win soul warfare, walk in the fullness of your calling, and live a life marked by health, wealth, and supernatural favor.

Subconscious Realms Episode - 299Synchronicities with Thrash!!"Synchronicities are meaningful coincidences, described by Carl Jung, where two or more events are connected not by cause-and-effect but by their surprising and personal significance, mirroring both internal psychological states and external happenings. Jung saw synchronicities as an "acausal connecting principle" that could offer psychological guidance, much like dreams, by revealing connections between the unconscious mind and the outer world. Recognizing synchronicities involves being open to seeing meaningful patterns and potential messages from the universe. Mint conversion, hope you enjoy...**Thrash**Twatter/X# @thrashtalk"It all makes sense now.

When you think about it, sowing seed and then reaping a harvest is all about multiplication. You sow one seed, you reap a hundred. But the extent, the quantum of the multiplication factor, has an awful lot to do with the way that we sow the seed in the first place.   Lord of the Harvest Over the last few weeks we have been working our way through a series called, “Reaping God's Harvest in My Life”. A couple of weeks ago we looked at how Isaac sowed seed in the middle of a drought and reaped a harvest. And again last week we looked at figuring out exactly what the drought is about because sometimes we go through seasons of drought; seasons where we're not experiencing God's blessing the way we should be and we think, “God what's going on? Why am I going through this? And sometimes Dad is trying to get our attention. Sometimes God knows there's something wrong in our lives; we've rebelled in this area, maybe with our finances or maybe we're living in un-forgiveness or maybe we are living in some sort of rebellion. Maybe we are not spending the time with God that we need to be and God thinks, “I love my child so much, it's time to get his attention; it's time to get her attention,” and so we start going through this drought thing and … “God, what's going on?" And we need to figure out what that drought is about. Those seasons of drought are very important times because there's power in sowing seeds of faith during the drought. The power comes from the faith that we place in God and His desire to bless us. So if you've missed those couple of programs, you can actually purchase this series on CD, because it's one of those teaching series that I believe all need to experience so that we know what it is to live with the Lord of the harvest; so we know what it is to reap God's harvest in my life. This week we are going to take a closer look at two things. The first one is – what exactly is God's harvest? I mean, how do we know when we are in harvest time? What does God's harvest look like? Good question! And the second one is the importance of not only sowing seeds of faith but looking at how we sow those seeds. I'm really excited about being together today because when we speak about God's harvest, we're talking about His grace and His power and I hope you're excited too, so stick with me over the next twenty minutes or so. Jesus called God "The Lord of the Harvest" and the notion of sowing and reaping, is one of those consistent principles that we find right through the Scriptures; Old Testament and New Testament – it's a pretty straightforward proposition. You buy some seed, you put it in the ground, you wait for the rain and the sun and it grows into a plant that gives you more seeds. You don't sow, you don't reap the harvest! The question is: is it worth sowing in the first place? I mean, why should we bother? Going out and buying seed – it costs money. Sowing seed in the ground is hard work. You know, it's not always convenient to sow seeds. When God says to us: “Go and forgive that person,” it's not always convenient. We don't always want to do it. Invariably, when God says: “Sow seed", it involves some form of sacrifice. It involves something that we really don't want to do. And so it's not unreasonable to say, “Well, do I really want to sow seed? Maybe this drought thing isn't so bad. Maybe I can just survive it on my own. Cor … sowing seed, taking a risk, spending money, spending emotional energy and then God has this crazy idea, instead of feeding my need, He wants me to plant His seed somewhere else. Oh, I don't know.” So when we are making a decision as to whether we should plant this seed; whether we should experience seed time and harvest, we have to weigh these things up. On the one hand we look at the cost of the seed, the effort of sowing, the risk of loss and on the other hand, we look at the value of the harvest. We balance those two things and we think: is it worth it? So what does God's harvest look like? Is God's harvest about money and a big house and a nice car? We all have physical needs – there's not doubt – and you may be listening; you may be someone who has really acute, physical needs. This program goes all over the world. This program is listened to by wealthy people and people who don't have enough food to eat. God is in those physical things. God wants to meet our needs but we all know that when the physical provision – the food, the shelter, the security, the money – when it gets to a certain level, to meet our need, after that all the other luxuries, all the other things are lovely and nice and they're wonderful icing on the cake, but they're not the things that ultimately satisfy us. They're not the things that fill us up. So what does God's harvest look like? Well, Paul, the Apostle, in Romans chapter 14, verse 17, he wrote this; he said, “The Kingdom of God is not about food or drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” Now remember, Jesus taught that we should ask God for our daily bread. God is into our physical needs, but what Paul is saying here is: Beyond all of that, come on, let's get it straight – the Kingdom of God, the reign of God in our lives, is not ultimately about physical things. It's not ultimately about food or drink, even though God's heart is to provide for us and God does provide for us. The main game,” says Paul “is righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” Righteousness is that sense of completion and goodness that we have when we know, we know, we know that what Jesus did for us on the cross has made us whole, has given us forgiveness, has given us a clean slate and when we live out that goodness and that righteousness as God's Word calls us, we experience a peace and a joy in the Holy Spirit that words can't, can't describe. I mean, peace – who doesn‘t want that? Who doesn't want the deep, powerful, wonderful peace; the peace of knowing no matter what happens in life, I'm going to be ok? Who doesn't want that? Who doesn't want joy; the free gift that God puts in our hearts, through the Holy Spirit? Now that's a harvest! Righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. If we were all reaping that sort of harvest in every part of our lives, the rest wouldn't matter, would it? Let me ask you: righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit – is your harvest abundant in those areas? Are you full, overflowing type of harvest or do you want to come up higher in the harvest? Do you want more righteousness; do you want more peace; do you want more joy; do you want to experience God's goodness more and more? I know that I want that! In a sense, I can't have more righteousness than I already have because it's all done for me on the cross. I'm free – I've got eternal life but, we want to live that out too, don't we? We want to see our lives change to be like that; to experience the peace. So, food and drink; the physical stuff is fine but that's not really the main game. Its righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit – that's life. How do we get that? How do we experience that?   Give and It Will be Given Well, we are talking today about reaping God's harvest and we saw before, that the main game in the Kingdom of God is not food and drink; it's not physical things, even though God wants to provide for us, its righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Oh, fabulous; now that is a harvest worth having! The question is, exactly how do we sow in order to reap that sort of a harvest – of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit? It's a good question and it's a question that Jesus answered directly. If you have a Bible, open it at Luke chapter 6, verses 37 and 38. Let's have a read. This is what Jesus said. He said: Do not judge and you will not be judged. Do not condemn and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven. Give and it will be given to you, a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap, for the measure with which you give, will be the measure with which you get back. Now, often you hear the second verse; the bit about "the good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap", you hear that in terms of God's financial blessing. I've often heard it used that way. Now, do I believe God blesses a giver? Absolutely, yes I do! And we'll look at that later in this program. But that's not what Jesus is talking about here. He's talking about three things – He says, “Do not judge and you will not be judged, don't condemn and you won't be condemned, forgive and you will be forgiven. Give like this and it will be given to you, a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over will be put into your lap. With whatever measure you give that's the measure with which you will receive." Judgment, condemnation and forgiveness - if we give these in the right way then we'll get back in the same way. Isn't it interesting? He's talking about some really interesting concepts here – judgement, well that's criticism and bitterness. That's when I judge you and I demand recompense because you have wronged me. I judge you because you've got some weakness and I think, “You just have to fix this, you owe me buddy.” You know, I need my pound of flesh from you – that's judgement and when I judge you it hurts and when you judge me, it hurts. Question: do you like being around judgmental people? Are they your first choice to be close friends? Well, obviously not, but we all love to judge and what we do is we focus on people's failings and ignore all their good points. That's what judgement is and Jesus said: “Do not judge and you will not be judged.” How is it, that we stop judging? Well, the only way I figured out is to let people's weaknesses and failures wash by me; go right through to the keeper. It doesn't mean that I'm not aware of the strengths and weaknesses of people, but instead of getting all tied up in knots about someone's weaknesses and getting all tied up in knots about their failings and getting all tied up in knots about things that are never going to change – because that's the way they are – we can compensate for those weaknesses. We can lift them up; we can bless them, right? Now that is hard sometimes, it is really, really hard but we've got to stop judging. You want righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit? Well, righteousness and peace and joy don't happen when we are out busy doing something Jesus said, “Don't do”. Righteousness and peace and joy don't happen when we are busy doing things that ruin the peace and "judgement" ruins the peace. The second thing Jesus says, "don't do" is, “Don't condemn.” It's the next step after judgement. Condemnation is when we write them off, “that's it, I've had enough. I'm not dealing with that person any more.” And we shut ourselves off, don't we? We do that; we write them off and we condemn them. It's like a death sentence to the relationship. “Instead,” said Jesus, “forgive and you will be forgiven.” Forgiveness is giving up our right of anger and retribution and getting even and condemnations. Forgiveness is wiping the slate clean, forgiveness is making peace. Forgiveness says, “That person who wronged me has exactly the same standing with me as though they had never done what they did.” Does that sound vaguely familiar? Because that's what Jesus purchased for us on the cross with His life and He's calling us to exactly the same thing. Judgement and condemnation are enemies of the harvest of righteousness and peace and joy. They are in direct opposition and Jesus is saying, “Instead forgive, instead sow good seed; faith-seed into the harvest field,” and that is hard some days, right? It is hard to forgive, it is hard to let people's weaknesses wash by, it is hard not to criticise them, it hurts not to condemn them – do it anyway, ‘cause Jesus asks us to, ‘cause Jesus did it with His life. We are going to talk more about exactly that this next week. Let's look at it again. Do not judge and you will not be judged. Do not condemn and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven. Give and it will be given to you, a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over. Imagine a good measure of forgiveness, a good measure of peace, a good measure of joy, will be given to you, pressed down, shaken up, flowing over will be put into your lap and it depends on whether we sow seeds of judgment and condemnation because if that's what we sow, that's what we'll get. That's what Jesus is saying. You sow those things and that's what you will get back. You sow forgiveness and that's what you'll get back – seeds of righteousness and goodness and forgiveness, but it turns out that how we sow, how we give, the intention of our hearts, counts too.   God's Multiplication Factor When you think about it, sowing and reaping is about multiplication. You take one grain of wheat, you put it in the ground, you plant it, you water it, the sun shines on it and that head of wheat has fifty or a hundred grains of wheat on it. But how we give; the heart with which we give, impacts on God's multiplication factor. Again, if you have a Bible, flick it open to Second Corinthians chapter 9, verses 6 to 10. This is what the Apostle Paul writes. He says: The point is this, the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly and the one who sows bountifully will also read bountifully. Now, let me just say that this is the context – he's going around and he's talking to the church in Corinth about raising money for the church in Jerusalem because there's a famine happening in Jerusalem and they're all starving. And so Paul is going around to the different churches that he was involved in – that he either planted or that he had ministered at – raising money for Christians in Jerusalem who are starving in the famine. Which is amazing in itself, because these are the people who ultimately end up locking him up and sending him to Rome where he was killed. Anyway, that's the context he is talking about it in. He's talking about giving money. The point is this – “the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly and the one who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly, not under compulsion, because God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to provide you with every blessing, in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work. As it is written, He scatters abroad, He gives to the poor, His righteousness endures forever. He, who supplies the seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness.” Powerful stuff! Look at it! Let's just break it down for a minute. Verse 6, he says: If you sow sparingly, you will reap sparingly and if you sow bountifully, you will reap bountifully. In other words, if you sow one seed, you might reap a hundred, you sow fifty seeds, you might reap five thousand, you sow a hundred seeds, and you'll reap then thousand. The more we sow, the more we reap. How much should I sow, how? And he says, “I'm not going to put a guilt trip on you. Make up your mind – make up your mind with God as to how much you should sow. And I always encourage people, you know, when they are giving to God's work, when they are giving to the poor, get with the Holy Spirit, get with God and say, “God, I just feel you calling me to give to this particular work that you are doing in someone's life right now. How much do you want me to give?” Because that is between God and His child – God and the giver – God and the sower. It's God that gives, so we need to get with God and say, “God what do you want me to give?” But how? How should we sow? Look at verse 7 of chapter 9 of Second Corinthians: Each of you must give as you have made up your mind to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. God loves a cheerful giver! When someone come to you and gives you something begrudgingly, do you enjoy that? Is that great fun? No! It's awful, isn't it, when someone gives grudgingly, it's really awful? God wants us to give out of the abundance of our hearts – God wants us to give out of joy and peace and wanting to be there willingly. God's like that. Now look again at the harvest, verse 8, it says that: God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that you will always have enough; so that you'll always be able to give out of your abundance. Not just money but righteousness, peace and joy and look at verse 10 – I love this bit: For he who supplies the seed to the sower and the bread for food, will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. So Paul is making a link here between – I'm calling you, I'm asking you to give to the people who are starving in Jerusalem, but in doing that; in planting that Spiritual seed, the money for the starving; the money for his ministry – maybe in our lives, the money to help someone poor or someone at church or someone who's struggling – a friend or family – you sow a seed like that and you're not just giving money, you're sowing a seed that will bear a harvest of righteousness. God will take that – you're sowing one field where God calls you to sow and He, all of a sudden, brings harvest to all these other parts of our lives. And the same is true in other areas. If God says, “I am calling you to forgive this person,” and we struggle and we finally forgive and we obey God, God brings a harvest of blessing into a whole bunch of other parts of our lives. Why wouldn't He? He's God, He can do that. He loves us – He's busting to bless us. That's why He does this stuff and He calls us to sow our seed in His field, rather than feed our need, because He wants us to put Him first and He wants us to put our faith into the God who is the God of blessing. And Paul goes on in verses 11 and 12. He says: You will be enriched every way for your great generosity which will produce thanksgiving to God through us, for the rendering of this ministry not only supplies the needs of the saints but also overflows with many thanksgivings to God through the testing of this ministry, you glorify God by your obedience to the confession of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and by the generosity of your sharing with them in Jerusalem and all the others while they long for you and pray for you because of the surpassing grace of God that He has given you. Thanks be to God for His indescribable blessing. In other words when we give it unlocks thanksgiving, it unlocks blessing, unlocks God's grace and He just pours it out of heaven because He just delights when we give in faith, the way He's calling us to give. Whether it be money or whether it be anything else that He is calling us to be obedient to in our lives. And sometimes we don't see it as sowing seed but it's exactly what it is. When we are obedient to God, we are sowing a Spiritual seed; we're putting it in the ground. God does something amazing with it, the plant grows and there's a harvest of a hundred fold. It's God's way. Can I encourage you? I just really feel the talk about forgiveness, right now - maybe you're listening and you are holding onto some un-forgiveness in your heart, I encourage you to listen to God's Word and to plant a Spiritual seed and forgive that person and God will take that and use that and give the most amazing harvest out of that. Then how do we do it? Two ways – not sparingly but bountifully and it's up to us and God. You know, when we forgive someone, we can go the whole hog and we can really forgive them but if we forgive them sparingly, well, it's not really forgiveness, is it? And the second way is cheerfully – not grumbling, not whinging, not complaining – go the whole hog, lash out, do it cheerfully and joyfully, with a smile on our faces, even though planting seed is always about sacrifice. The Kingdom of God is not about food or drink but about righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. What a harvest! What an amazing notion, that we can go and plant seed into God's Spiritual field, simply by being obedient to what He's calling us to do – even when it's not convenient, even when it's tough, even when we don't feel like it, even when the flesh says, “No, no, I don't want to do it,” just do it. Because when we plant that seed in God's field, His plan is to bless it and to grow a harvest that we can scarcely even imagine, so sow the seed in the field that God is calling you to plant it in and with everything that is in me, let me say, that the God of righteousness, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, is just busting to bless you with the most amazing harvest, because that's who He is. Go on, sow the seed!

Scriptures + Notes Ephesians 2:10 (AMPC): "For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]."

In this powerful message, I declared that resurrection, restoration, and revelation are happening right now. You're not just a body or a mind—you are a walking spirit, created in God's image and anointed to dominate. This is a divine operation where the Holy Spirit cuts off limitations, destroys yokes, and pulls you out of anything that tried to bury you. Today, you move from church member to manifesting child of God. You're not waiting for victory—you're walking in it, taking what's already yours through divine ownership and kingdom authority.God said it's time to stop reading history and start framing your life with His Word. In this service, I taught you how to decree, how to operate from revelation, and how to stop imitating the world and start transforming your mind. You're moving from paycheck to overflow, from sickness to wholeness, from fear to faith. It's not just a message—it's an activation. Get ready to live in divine flow, because your dominion season has begun.September 14, 2025 | SUNDAY AMSunday Morning LiveLeroy Thompson TV FULL VIDEO LINK - How To Frame Your Life With The Word Of God⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://leroythompson.tv/programs/sun091425⁠⁠⁠CONNECT NOW - BECOME A PARTNER ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/partnership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Connect" to 225-230-2234 To GIVE/SOW click the link below! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Sow" to 225-230-2234TESTIMONY?Email your testimonies to victory@eiwm.orgMORE LINKS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/drleroysr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#faith

I'm finally releasing an assignment I've carried for years: teaching the supernatural revelation of "Money Cometh." This isn't just a phrase—it's a divine movement meant to raise multitudes of millionaires in the Body of Christ. Through scripture, impartation, and prophetic insight, I reveal how sowing grace, not salary, unlocks overflow. God gave me this word in 1994, and now I'm passing it to you—with anointings of accommodation and consolidation to break financial famine and launch you into divine increase. You'll hear how to activate prophetic seed, receive money miracles, and become a money magnet—not by manipulation, but by revelation and obedience. This message carries an apostolic anointing to destroy lack and release wealth, wisdom, and favor over your life. It's your time to sow into ownership, walk in harvest, and break out of survival mode.

In this prophetic message, I'm showing you how to turn your routines into revelation and walk fully in the power of grace and faith. You're not just called to embrace faith—you're called to enforce it. We dive deep into Hebrews 11, John 14, and Mark 11 to break down how to trust grace, embrace faith, and erase satanic forces trying to rule your life. Faith is stronger than facts. It overrules feelings, fear, and anything hell tries to send your way. You're not broke. You're not sick. You are blessed, healed, and victorious—right now. I speak directly to your spirit—pack your bags, you're leaving failure tonight. This is your call to rise up, live by revelation, and take the roof off your life. If you can see it by faith, you can seize it by faith. Don't let religion, routine, or resistance stop you. The Word of God is your weapon, and the Holy Spirit is your guide. It's time to step into the blessing zone and live the life God has already prepared for you. Everything is already yours—in the arena of faith.September 3, 2025 | WEDNESDAY PMMidweek Service⁠Leroy Thompson TV FULL VIDEO LINK - You Are Called To Be A Faith And Grace Embracer And Enforcer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://leroythompson.tv/programs/wed090325CONNECT NOW - BECOME A PARTNER ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/partnership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Connect" to 225-230-2234 To GIVE/SOW click the link below! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Sow" to 225-230-2234TESTIMONY?Email your testimonies to victory@eiwm.orgMORE LINKS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/drleroysr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#grace

In this episode of Sow and Grow, Margaret answers listener questions, exploring topics such as the end of Summer and the start of a new season. L'articolo E285| Sow and Grow – Margaret Griffin – The start of a new season. proviene da Radio Maria.

Let's face it – we all want to get the most out of life. We want to reap a harvest. And in fact, that's exactly what God wants for our lives, too. He promises us an abundant harvest. And yet so often, life feels more like a drought than anything else.  In those times, we're left asking ourselves … So, where's my harvest? Generational Sin Well, welcome to Christianityworks again this week and we are starting a new series called, "Reaping God's Harvest in My Life". What is it that you want out of your life? Health, happiness, family, a job, career, a reasonable level of comfort, joy and peace, we want our kids to grow up and be happy, we want to have a happy fulfilling marriage, we want to have friends, we want to have balance, we want to have a good life, don't we? We have different variations, we have different permutations; the things that you are going to enjoy in your life, well, maybe I won't enjoy in mine and vice versa, because we are different people, we come from different backgrounds, in different circumstances and different outcomes will satisfy us. But there are the basics aren't there; the things that I spoke about before that we all want in our life? We want a life of significance, we want a life where we're part of a family, we're part of a group, we've got friends, we've got joy and peace. Those things are important to us and we expect to put in the effort and to reap the reward. We expect to reap some sort of harvest from all the hard work. What sort of harvest, is a different question, sometimes we get our expectations and our desires and our needs out of whack. You know, I spent a lot of my time before I became a Christian, chasing money and success and career. All of those things are good things, but when we get them out of balance, when they become the main thing; when they dominate above all the other good things in life, well, then we can end up looking for the wrong things, striving for the wrong things, hurting other people to get there and we reap a harvest, that frankly, is the harvest of our own selfishness. On the other hand, if we do good, if we get up every day and say, “Well, you know something, God, I know I'm not perfect, I know I am going to make some mistakes but my heart, Lord, my heart is to follow you today. My heart is just to do good things for other people and for myself.” Well, we get up and do that every day and we are going to reap, by and large, a good harvest. Well, over these next four weeks, today and the following three weeks, we are going to take a balanced look at "reaping God's harvest in our lives". The problem is that most people can't really describe what that harvest looks like; exactly what do we want? Let's just take a look at our own lives today. The bits where we don't have a harvest, you know, normally look across our lives and there are some areas where we are getting a great harvest – the results are good, they're satisfying, they're fulfilling – but so often there are one or two areas in our lives and we look at them and we go, “Wow! You know, I'm not getting a harvest here, in fact, I'm nowhere near to getting a harvest and I've made such a mess of my life. I'm never going to reap God's harvest in that area. Why would God ever even bother with me? No, God's harvest isn't for me. No! Harvest? No. it's a drought, it‘s parched, it's hopeless, it's devastating. The dam is empty, the crops are dead.” We can have such deeply entrenched patterns of behaviour that they rob us of the harvest. Sometimes we take on the weaknesses of our parents. We might have generational sin. A man, whose father was a gambler, may well end up being a gambler. A person, whose parent was alcoholic, could end up being an alcoholic. We take on the good traits and the bad traits of our parents and sometimes we look at our circumstances and we look at our failures and we think, “Aw, it can never work.” We are going to look today at the story of Isaac in Genesis chapter 26. If you've got a Bible, grab it, open it. It's right at the front of the Bible; the 26th chapter of the first book of the Bible and it's a story about Isaac, the son of Abraham and what he did in the middle of such a drought, this is what it says: Now there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine that had occurred in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Gerar, to King Abimelech of the Philistines. And God appeared to Isaac and said, “Look, don't go on down to Egypt; settle in this land that I'll show you. Stay here as an alien and I'll be with you and I'll bless you because to you and your descendants I'll give these lands and I'll fulfill the promise that I made to your father, Abraham. I'll make your offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven and I'll give your offspring all these lands and all the nations of the earth will gain blessing for themselves through your offspring, because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge and my commandments, my statutes and my laws. So Isaac settled in Gerar and when the men of the place asked him about his wife, he said, “She's my sister,” because he was afraid to say, “She's my wife,” thinking, “Well, she is so good looking, the man of the place might kill me because of Rebecca, because she is so good looking.” When Isaac had been there for a long time, King Abimelech of the Philistines looked out of his window and saw Isaac cuddling his wife Rebecca and Abimelech called Isaac in and said, “She's your wife, isn't she; why did you say that she is my sister?” and Isaac said to him, “Well, you know, I thought I might get killed because of her,” and Abimelech said, “What have you done to us? One of the people might easily have slept with you're wife and you would have put guilt on us all.” So Abimelech warned all the people, saying, “Who ever touches this man or his wife will be put to death.” Well, Isaac sowed some seed in the land and that same year, he reaped a hundred fold. So here's Isaac, he's in a land that's not his own; he wants to run off to Egypt because Egypt seems to be much more prosperous and God comes to him and says, “No, stay here, I've got a promise on your life and this is your land, stay here as an alien”. So Isaac makes the decision to stay. It can't have been an easy decision; there was a drought, there was a famine and he stays in this land. But then he makes a huge blunder. He puts his wife out there and what a dangerous thing to do, this is something that his father, Abraham, did twice to his Mum. Unbelievable! Imagine, putting your wife out there, saying, “She's my sister.” Someone else could have taken her and slept with her. We man are supposed to protect our wives and he blows it, completely; he just repeats the generational sin of his father. He is in a land that's got a drought that's not his own, life is an absolute mess and then it says, “Isaac sowed seed in that land.” That's amazing! We are going to look at what happened when Isaac sowed the seed.   Sow the Seed We all want the most out of life, don't we? And sometimes the odds are stacked against us. Like that story we were looking at – the story of Isaac. Here was Isaac in a land that wasn't his own and his dad had made some serious mistakes and Isaac was just reliving those; that same pattern of generational sin that so often happens in our lives. We seem as though we can't control it, so dad has made a mess of his life, in a sense, and the drought is causing a famine. There's no harvest, there's no … How can there possibly be a blessing for Isaac, yet God promised him a blessing? God appeared to him and said: Look, don't go down to Egypt, stay here; stay here as an alien and I'll be with you and I'll bless you because to you and your descendants, I will give these lands and I'll fill it and you'll be blessed. When you look at that, you know you see God making a promise to bless you on the one hand and then you look at your own circumstances; the circumstances of where we live, our own failures and we think: there's no harvest, there can never be a harvest. Isaac was in the middle of a drought and a famine. He deceived the King, he hung his wife out to dry, he made a big mistake. I don't know what he was thinking, but he did something radical, in the middle of that mess. It says in Genesis 26, verse 12: Isaac sowed seed in that land and in that same year he reaped a hundred fold. Now farmers don't sow seeds when there's a drought. You know, when there's a drought, they look and they wait for rains and they wait for rains, because if you just put seed in dry land and there's a drought, not only won't you get a crop but you've wasted all the money that you've spent on the seed. So we think about that – it was a radical thing. I don't know how much the seed cost but in a famine, in a drought, you can bet your life it would have been really expensive. So here's this reckless thing, where he just takes the seed which cost him a lot of money and he puts it in the ground. The business risk, well, if you or I were doing it, would we have done it? Probably not; and the drought is so depressing. I mean, I have never been part of a farming community, but I know from what I've read and spoken to people who have lived in farming communities – when there's a drought going on, it's really depressing on the whole community and here it wasn't just a drought, it was a famine. People were starving and Isaac was planning to go somewhere else; to run away – to Egypt. It's not unreasonable he wanted to run away from the drought, but God said, “No, I've got a plan for you here, stay in the famine, stay in the drought,” and sometimes God calls us to stay. The thing that Isaac got right is he obeyed God. That tug in his heart; that word from God – he'd made a key decision to stay – probably against his better judgement. Ok, great – he stays. I've got a promise – “I'll bless you here”, says God and then what? Well, he makes this huge blunder; he lies to the King about his wife and she could have been taken to bed by someone else, frankly. So you've got the drought, you've got "I want to run away", you've got "God says stay", you've got this blunder, probably because of what dad handed down to me. You reckon he was confused? He should have failed; he blew it but God had made him a promise. God had said, “Stay here and I will bless you.” So Isaac – we see it in verse 12 – Isaac sowed his seed in the land. Takes a lot of faith to put seed in the ground when there's a drought. Even if there wasn't a drought, it's still an act of faith. You know, a farmer puts seed in the ground, there could be locusts, there could be drought, there could be flood, there could be fire, there could be disease. It takes faith to put seed in the ground, especially in a drought, and even when you've blown it. So what happens? Isaac sows the seed in that land and in that same year he reaps a hundred fold – the Lord blessed him and he became rich – he prospered more and more until he became very wealthy. He had possessions of flocks and herds and a great household, so that the Philistines envied him. Now the Philistines had stopped up and filled with the earth all the wells that his father's servants had dug in the days of his father Abraham. And Abimelech said to Isaac, “Get away from us. You've just become too powerful for us.” So what happens? He takes one seed, he plants it in a drought and he gets a hundred back. He takes two seeds, he plants them in a drought, he gets two hundred back. He takes a hundred thousand seeds and plants them in a drought and he gets a hundred times a hundred thousand back. And you read the rest of that chapter, chapter 26 – God just kept blessing him – He blessed his socks off and his son Jacob as well. Sometimes we think, “You know, I'm carrying sin around, I'm carrying this thing around, it might be sexual, it might be gambling, it might be any sort of other addiction and we know that it's been handed down from our parents – it's sad but true. And we think, “Oh, God can never bless me. I can never break this and I look around and I see this famine and this drought and things around me are going badly.” God's promise is to bless us! God is a God of blessing. But the promise didn't grow a harvest until Isaac planted the seed during the drought. Let me say that again. The promise didn't grow a harvest until Isaac planted the seed during the drought. So what's in that for us? Maybe you are looking around at a situation of drought and famine and failure and sin? What's in this story for us?   What's in it for Us? Well, we have been looking at this story of young Isaac, who was living in a drought and a famine and he made a mess of his own circumstances and he should have had failure written all over him. He wanted to run away from it all and now God says, "stay". Someone today is listening, maybe it's you, and today you want to run away from your circumstances and every now and then God does call us onto something new. Every now and then God says, “It's time to leave this church and go to another; it's time to sell this house and move on to another but most of the time God wants us to bloom where He has planted us. If God is calling you to go - go! But if He is telling you to stay – stay! And if your "go" is maybe leaving your wife or your husband or your children, let me tell you, God is not calling you to do that. There are some very extreme circumstances and I say this with all compassion because I have traveled the road of divorce; that's where I came to meet Christ. There are some very extreme circumstances of violence and abuse and God's plan isn't for us to be in those – I'm not talking about those. But so often we replace the ‘until death us do part' with ‘until something better comes along.' And we think, “Oh, well maybe God means for me to move on?” No, God does not! God wants us, most of the time, to stay where we are and to be a blessing to those people around us. And so, here we saw Isaac stayed where God wanted him, even though there was a drought; even though he went on to make a huge blunder with his wife. And there are so many circumstances in our marriages, in our jobs, in our church or in anything, where we would look at them through human eyes and we think, “They're never going to change - this is never going to get better,” but we see things in the natural but God's not natural – God is supernatural and supernatural literally means "above natural". He is so far beyond natural and He sees – He sees our circumstances, not from the natural perspective, not from the human perspective but from God's perspective; from the supernatural perspective. And God is a God of the harvest; God is a God of blessing and sometimes we have to do what Isaac did and stay in that place even through there's a drought and a famine and stay in that place even though we go on to make mistakes, and just plant some seed. One that is absolutely, one hundred percent for certain - if we do it God's way, whether it's to stay or to go – if we follow God's call, we will make boo-boos along the way, you know, we will make some mistakes but God honours those who honour Him. If God says, “I know you've got a famine in your land. I know your circumstances are just rotten and awful, but I want you to stay there, amidst that drought and famine and if we stay we honour God. God sees that, God honours what's in our hearts and He forgives what we do with our hands. God is a good God. Ok, so we stay, we do it God's way, then what? Then we plant seed in the drought, in the face of our own failure. Boy, is that counter intuitive or what? We want to give up by now but God says, “Plant seed.” Seed? What is seed like? Well, maybe you're in a job; in your work situation and you just hate your boss. I know that's a strong word but some people do. The boss is so oppressive, so unfair; promoting other people around you, victimising you and all we want to do is run away and God says, "No, actually, I'd like you to stay here. This is where I've planted you.” How can we plant good seed? Well, we can excel, we can say, “You know, I'm going to work hard anyway; I'm going to bless that person anyway. I'm going to do so well at this job, in the face of what this boss is doing to me, people are going to sit up and notice.” We can sow good seed into bad situations. Or in a marriage; maybe your husband or your wife is driving you nuts. There's pain and there's tears and there's anguish and we can say, “Well, I'm just going to ditch them,” but God's calling us to say, “No, stay here and sow good seed.” We can try and run away or we can stay and sow good seed. We can be the best husband or the best wife that we can possibly be. We can choose to bless and to honour and to love our husbands and wives. We can just be such wonderful people amidst the most difficult circumstances. Sowing seed is always a step of faith because we can't see the harvest when we sow the seed. Maybe your finances are a mess – your credit cards are up to the limit, the overdraft is up to the limit - and we just hear God saying, “Just stay there and become a good steward; cut back and become a good steward; cut back, manage your finances, give to the poor,” and I bet you that God will ask you to sow. Now sometimes when our finances are bad and we just think we have to save it all and we just have to stockpile it all and pay the debt off but I've seen it happen, time and time again – when God deals with our finances – one of the first things He does is calls us to give off the top, to Him; to the poor. It's about sowing seed and seed is a scary thing to sow because we can't see the harvest and we have to pay for the seed to sow it, before the harvest comes along – it is a step of faith. God is calling us to listen to Him; to obey Him, to take risks that He calls us to take, which aren't really risks but they look like risks, in faith. Isaac sowed seed and reaped a hundred fold. That's a lot! He couldn't control the weather. You and I can't control the outcomes, all we can do is to stay in the place that God's calling us to and sow the seed and it's God that gives the increase, it's God that brought the rains, it's God that blessed Isaac's step of obedience and faith. In our ministry – you know, in this ministry of Christianityworks - when we started taking programs to air, we had to sow seed. We had to start recording and producing programs before even one station had said, “Yes, we'll take the programs.” We had to spend money that, I'll tell you, we didn't have a lot of it, but we knew God was calling us to this. We knew that this venture was God's venture and God has blessed it so wonderfully and blessed so many lives through it but if we hadn't sown the seed, the harvest wouldn't have come. God gives the increase; it's His harvest. It might be our drought and our famine and our failure and our fear, but it is God's opportunity to be God and God's promise is to bless us. God doesn't just say, “Go out there on your own and do it,” God says, “Here's where I want you to do it and this is the sort of seed I want you to sow.” God is so personal. You know, when I pray and I ask Him, “Lord, what seed can I sow into this relationship?” Bang! He always, straightaway says, “Do this or do that,” and sometimes it doesn't make sense but we sow the seed and God blesses us. You see, it's in the middle of the drought that God wants to sow the seed, and the harvest is His. God is the God of the harvest. Is that scary to you? It is to me and I think it should be some days because faith ... we don't need faith if it's easy but the harvest that comes from faith, the blessing that comes from faith, the enormous, hundredfold increase that comes when we sow the seed that God calls us to, in the drought that God calls us to, well, that's an awesome blessing and it's God's blessing. That's God's plan!

In this life-changing message, I teach you the true meaning of meditation as divine investigation—searching the heart of God and allowing Him to search yours. Too many believers are only reading and quoting the Word, but real transformation comes when you meditate until revelation rises within. Meditation opens the lifestyle of being a kingdom carrier, moving you beyond mere church membership into a supernatural walk with God where His presence, wisdom, and provision flow through you daily.As you learn to carry the kingdom within, you will step into righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost, manifest prosperity, and live in divine positioning that cannot be stopped by the world's system. This is about elevation, breakthrough, and walking in the supernatural power of God. I'm not just teaching revelation—I'm imparting manifestation so you can prosper, live debt-free, walk in health, and shine as a true kingdom carrier everywhere you go.August 17, 2025 | SUNDAY AMSunday Morning LiveLeroy Thompson TV FULL VIDEO LINK - Meditation Opens The Lifestyle of Being a Kingdom Carrier⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://leroythompson.tv/programs/sun081725⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CONNECT NOW - BECOME A PARTNER ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/partnership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Connect" to 225-230-2234 To GIVE/SOW click the link below! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eiwm.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | or TEXT "Sow" to 225-230-2234TESTIMONY?Email your testimonies to victory@eiwm.orgMORE LINKS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/drleroysr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#meditation #faith

Today's Bible Verse: “As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.” – Ecclesiastes 11:5-6 Life is full of mystery—winds we cannot predict, miracles we cannot explain, and outcomes we cannot control. The writer of Ecclesiastes reminds us that God’s work is often beyond our understanding, yet we’re still called to act in faith. Plant your seeds—whether those are acts of kindness, steps of obedience, or bold ventures—and keep working diligently. You may not know which effort will bear fruit, but God does. Our job isn’t to figure it all out; it’s to trust Him enough to keep sowing and to keep moving forward.

“Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” (Ephesians 6:17 NLT) There are a lot of motorcyclists today who don’t like helmet laws. Rather than donning a helmet, they prefer to feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their face. It feels like freedom. That is, when things are going well. But the moment they lose control, and their bike goes airborne, is when a helmet suddenly seems like a really good idea. In fact, it might be the difference between life and death. Between walking away from an accident and being carried away from it. The helmet of the Roman soldier was made of leather and covered with metal. It was the last piece of armor the soldier put on. It was essential in battle for the same reason a motorcycle helmet is important: It protected the brain, the command center of the body. The brain processed the input of the soldier’s eyes and ears. It recalled the soldier’s training. It deciphered the enemy’s battlefield strategies. It directed the soldier’s movements. The protection the helmet provided was crucial. If the soldier’s brain was damaged, the rest of the armor was useless. In spiritual battle, believers must put on the helmet of salvation because our minds, thoughts, and imaginations must be protected. That’s where most temptations start. The devil recognizes the importance of getting a foothold in the realm of our thoughts and imagination, because it prepares the way for that thought to translate into action. Perhaps you’re familiar with the adage, “Sow a thought; reap an act. Sow an act; reap a habit. Sow a habit; reap a character. Sow a character; reap a destiny.” It all starts with a thought. Putting on the helmet of salvation means embracing the assurance of salvation that God offers. Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross saves us from God’s ultimate punishment for our sin and makes eternal life possible. But it does more than that. In the here and now, it saves us from the devil’s attacks. God has equipped us to win the battle for our minds. We may not be able to control all the things in this world that we’re exposed to, but we can control some things. We can control the social media we choose to explore. We can control the movies and shows we choose to watch. We can control what we choose to read and listen to. In his letter to the believers in Philippi, Paul offered some insight into how to do it. “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise” (Philippians 4:6–8 NLT). Be careful what you allow into your mind. Put on the helmet of salvation. Reflection question: What’s your most effective strategy for guarding your mind against the devil’s attacks?

Today on Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe … we’re learning to change the way we think about our circumstances. Do you know the names of your neighbors who live around you? Well, many don’t! As believers, we should care more about our communities than anyone else. And we should be the connectors! We should be connecting people … not just merely talking to them and moving on. You can be in a marriage and it’s the same way… a heart-to-heart connection that goes beyond just a casual acquaintance. Starting today, Mark is going to share some thoughts about a single, powerful principle that if you put into practice … will change your life! It’s called the Sow and Reap Principle, and it comes from the book of Galatians, Chapter 6.

Our words have power—to either build up or break down. In today's prayer, Vivian Bricker reflects on how the wisdom passed down from her mother shaped her own understanding of the importance of speech, and how Scripture calls us to use our tongues as trees of life. Whether we’ve been wounded by words or regret the ones we’ve spoken, there is hope and healing through Christ. By surrendering our speech to Him, we allow God to shape our words into sources of encouragement, compassion, and truth. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse:
