Seed of equal benefit

“Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.”
Romans 13:10(KJV)


The Bible says in our opening scripture, that love worketh no ill to his neighbour. In other words, love does not seek to harm his neighbour in any way. Love does not plan to avenge himself. Love is always willing to forgive that individual that hurt you.

Kenneth Copeland told a story of how he was in the airport going to Hawaii. He placed his camera on his neck, but as he bent down to get something, before he raised his head again, his camera was gone from his neck. A fast guy has stolen the camera from him.

When this happened, he became very bitter about the loss of his camera. Then the Lord asked him, “why are you angry with the young man?” He answered, “he stole my camera.” Then the Lord said, “why don't you forgive him,” then he answered saying, “okay, Lord I forgive him.”

So, after he boarded the plane and was on his way flying to Hawaii, the Lord spoke to him again saying, “why don't you count the camera that the young man stole from you as a seed of equal benefit.” Kenneth Copeland agreed and counted it as a seed. Then God asked him, “then, what is your harvest?” he answered, “I demand for the best camera.”

When he got to Hawaii, he entered the shop of a Japanese man that couldn't speak english well, and he asked him for the cost of a Nikon camera that was on display, and the man said, $50. He gave him $50 and he was also able to get the lense for the camera almost at no cost.

Therefore, he was able to get a camera better than the camera that was stolen for less money. This was made possible because he turned the loss of the previous camera as a seed of equal benefit, instead of been bitter over the loss. I encourage you to follow this principle, and you will always get the same result.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I let go of every bitterness against anyone who has taken anything away from me unjustly. I expect to receive a thousand times more than what was taken in Jesus Name. Amen.

For further study read:
Genesis 37:26-28, Genesis 45:1-8, Genesis 50:15-20.

DOING THE WORD
Count whatever has been stolen from you as a seed of equal benefit, then name your harvest.
