This week a lady who works as a financial adviser and has
been attending the services recently approached me after hearing me talking
about Isaac’s return when he sowed in the land.
She explained that one hundred fold is not just 100 times
but one hundred fold is
1,201,064,595,207,167,685,882,431,343,616 (one nonillion, two hundred-one
octillion, sixty-four septillion, five hundred ninety-five sextillion, two
hundred seven quintillion, one hundred sixty-seven quadrillion, six hundred
eighty-five trillion, eight hundred eighty-two billion, four hundred thirty one
million, three hundred forty-three thousand, six hundred-sixteen).
The formula is a bit hard to explain it would be like
folding a paper one hundred times it would multiply it many times but the point
is:
What God gives is beyond measure when we obey him that is
why Isaac in the same year became very prosperous.
“Then Isaac sowed in that
land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him. 13 The
man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous;
14 for he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds and a great
number of servants.” Gen 26:12,14
We
see the same when God promised to bless the tither’s He says : “If I will not
open for you the windows of heaven.
And pour out for you such
blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it.
Malachi 3:6
If we were to mention Abraham and others that God
promised to bless we see his promises are always beyond what we can measure but
we must be willing to obey and sow in other to receive the fulfilment of the
promise.
Thanks for your time.
