RELEASING THE POWER IN YOUR SEED.


TEXT: Matthew 25:19-30 (KJV)
19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21   His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22   He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26   His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.


Every seed has the ability and capacity to become a plant but not every seed has been placed in the enabling environment that empowers it to become what it is created to be. Until you take your seed and put it in the right soil you cannot unlock the potentials that are in your seed. It is dangerous to delay the release of your seed when you have the privilege of maximizing the right opportunity/ atmosphere. It is a big mistake to keep your money in your pocket or in your bag when the opportunity to sow comes begging. Saving your money in the bank is good but if that savings does not add value to your money then you have missed the opportunity to use that period in time to grow your seed. The Lord was angry with the unprofitable servant because he saved the money instead of investing the money in a viable venture that will produce some profits. Keeping your seed will cage your potentials, sowing your seed will release your harvest. Delayed sowing is delayed or denied harvest. The story was told of seeds that were discovered in a jar in one of the historic sites of Egypt. The seeds have been there for over a thousand years. But when they took some of the seeds and released them on the ground along the River Nile, a few days after they began to grow. Don’t store your seed, release your seed into the right environment and you will see what God will do with your seed. Don’t just give to something, somewhere or someone because this is something historic or of great reputation. Be careful to confirm that you are releasing your seed into a good soil and not into a Jar. The Glory Realm Devotional by Rev. Igho Y; the Glorious Fountain Ministries.
