Seven Hindrances To Abundant Harvest

Hi, Jesus loves you

What can stop your abundant
harvest after you have planted
your seeds? Have you ever
planted and reaped little? It is
not enough to just sow for you
to reap a harvest. There are
other factors to consider if you
want a bountiful harvest. This
article lists things to watch out
for if you are to receive a
great return.
But this I say, He which
soweth sparingly shall reap
also sparingly; and he which
soweth bountifully shall reap
also bountifully – 2
Corinthians 9:6
It is God’s heart desire to
bless us abundantly. But like a
farmer, abundant harvest
neither comes by wishing it
nor by scattering seeds
without focus. A farmer
diligently prepares for a
bountiful harvest by the
conscious steps he takes. He
watches out for any hindrance
to his desired returns and
takes care of them. Do you
desire great returns? Then
watch out for the following
hindrances:
Hindrances to abundant
harvest

1. No or insufficient
planted seeds:
Seeds stored and not planted
will yield nothing. It is only
when you sow that you can
expect a harvest. Sow nothing
and reap nothing. Also, the
more the seeds you sow the
more the harvest you can
expect. Therefore, sow in the
morning, noon and evening,
any opportunity you have sow
and expect your harvest.

2. Unfertile land:
Not every soil is suitable for
planting seeds. So also, not
every life or place is a fertile
ground. A cursed life or place
will yield nothing. Sow your
seeds in lives and places that
enjoy God’s blessings and
your seed will receive God’s
blessings too.

3. Poor quality seed:
Bad seeds will yield nothing.
Good quality seed is a
function of the state of your
heart and your attitude to your
giving. Sow in love. Whatever
you do, do as unto the Lord.
Don’t just give merely for what
you will get in return.
Otherwise the “thank you” you
received will be all that you
will get. God’s blessing will
not rest on the seed.

4. Weeds:
These can be likened to the
care of this world, and the
deceitfulness of riches.
Anxiety, impatience and greed,
etc., can hinder your abundant
harvest. Like a farmer weeds
his farm so also you should
weed your life of any wrong
thought, words or actions
5. Lack of adequate light:
The word of God is the
sunlight you need for a
bountiful harvest. Search out
what God had said about your
seed and harvest. Speak the
Word over your seeds. There
is power in your tongue. Use it
and expect a fruitful return.

6. Lack of adequate rain:
Praise is the rain you need for
your seeds to yield fruit. Until
you praise God, the earth will
not yield her increase and you
will not receive God’s blessing
– Psalm 67: 5-6. Make
praising God a life style and
you will constantly have God’s
blessing upon your life.

7. Little Foxes:
These foxes spoil your plants
and inevitably your harvest.
They are un-forgiveness,
bitterness, anger, etc. Do not
give the enemy any reason to
accuse you before God (The
God of harvest). God is a just
God and He keeps to His
word. Keep these little foxes
away from your territory.

As long as the earth remains,
seed time and harvest will
never cease-Gen 8:22.
But you must
take care of these hindrances
if you want to enjoy abundant
harvest during the harvest
time.
