All Grace Pt4 Watering the Seed of the Word

Cory Tobin

But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

2 Corinthians 9:6-7


It’s apparent in Scripture that there is a “planting” aspect with our generosity. It’s not just kissing money goodbye, but there is a harvest (increase) the Lord adds to us through our generosity. However, just like planting a garden, once you plant,  there is cultivation of the seed that is necessary. This is the watering process. Just as Paul mentioned in 1 Corinthians 3, “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.” It’s God’s responsibility to bring the increase, but it’s our responsibility to plant and water the seed. But what does this look like? In this message, Pastor Cory talks about the importance and practicality of watering the seed of the Word in our lives.
