HARVEST REQUIRES A PLANTING ! He tills us to great faith secrets: 1). Faith works like a seed, and 2) the way to plant it is to say it. People who want to say something today and have the harvest tomorrow doesn't understand the law of seedtime and harvest. Any farmer knows that if you are to have a harvest, you must plant seeds months before the harvest. PROJECT YOUR NEED AND PLAN YOUR CONFESSION ! You must plan for a harvest. The problem with so many who tried to operate in faith is that they don't ever plan anything. They will always quote the Scripture where James says to take no thought for tomorrow. They say, "Well, James said not to take any thought, so I didn't ever make any plans." They missed the whole point. He said to take no anxious thought; don't be anxious about things. Certainly, you should make some plans. Project when you will have a certain need, and begin confessing the promise weeks, or months, before the need arises. Start just as a farmer does when he prepares the soil, then plant, and fertilize. He has corresponding actions toward that crop for weeks and months before he ever has a manifestation of harvest. It's a process, and a way of life. It doesn't happen overnight. You can't just say it today, and then received it in the morning. It's not going to happen that way. When you get highly developed in faith, some things will come into manifestation more quickly. But that is not the first stage of it. That's when you are highly developed in faith. Then sometimes you will get some gifts of the spirit in manifestation in the things you are saying. But just the normal way of faith and confession is to start sowing weeks and months before the time the harvest is needed. Sometimes you find someone who has a note due at the end of the year, and they start confessing the Word on December 25. They waited too late. They should have started at the first of the year confessing the promises of God. In (Mark 4), Jesus tells us the stages of the manifestation. Jesus said you plant the seed by saying. Remember (Hebrews 4:2). Said that the Word did not profit them, for they would not mix any faith with it. They had the promise. They knew what God said about the land. But they didn't mix faith with it. You must mix faith with God's Word. Your tongue is the mixer, and your words is your faith speaking ! Faith works like a seed. If you don't have faith as a seed. It will not work for you. You must have faith as a seed. Jesus said it again in (Matthew 17:20). ". . . If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
