Now, the way to raise a crop, is first get the ground ready. Is that right? Take out all the stink weeds, and the briers, the creepers. That’s unbelief and doubt. Sweep it out of your heart. Get ready. Then the field’s broke up. I’m not very much on this dry-eyed repentance. I like to see a man come down before God, say, “I’m sorry, Father. Receive me.” Broke up, the ground ready for the Word… Notice, then any Divine promise of God is a Seed. And that Seed in the right ground, will produce its kind. Corn will bring corn. Barley will bring barley. Wheat will bring wheat. And any Divine promise of God will bring the results, if it’s placed in the ground, and there watered with faith, prayer, trust, God shall bring it to pass. I’m saying with experience.
