Great Truth 7 — One System of Success

Success Is a Human Birthright Through Sowing and Reaping

Don't just wish for a harvest. Learn to sow for it.

Physical, emotional, spiritual, relational, and financial success is not reserved for a privileged few. God created a universal system through which outcomes can be influenced — God's System of Success — founded on the timeless law of sowing and reaping: Seed, Time, Cultivation, Harvest.

An Honest Word

Sowing and reaping is not a simplistic promise that every person controls every circumstance. People encounter systems, tragedies, injustices, and health conditions beyond their control. The principle teaches that we can become far more intentional about the seeds within our control — and intentional sowing dramatically improves the probability of a desired harvest.

Sowing in Every Area

  • Physical — healthier habits for better health outcomes
  • Emotional — healthy thoughts, environments, boundaries, perspectives
  • Spiritual — prayer, reflection, goodness, wisdom, gratitude
  • Relationships — communication, patience, integrity, forgiveness
  • Financial — education, skill, value creation, saving, stewardship
  • Purpose — learning, action, service, persistence, courage

Become Intentional About

  • What seeds we sow
  • Where we sow them
  • How often we sow
  • How many seeds we sow
  • How consistently we cultivate them
  • Whether the seed can produce the harvest we want

Questions for reflection

  • What am I currently sowing without realizing it?
  • What harvest do I want in one year, and what seed produces it?
  • Where have I been wishing instead of sowing?
