Stewardship and Harvest in Kingdom Entrepreneurship

After a deep, self reflecting moment about not rushing the root work, the Holy Spirit dropped this message in my heart...

You don’t get to the harvest if you neglect the sowing. And you won’t sustain the harvest if you don’t know how to steward it.

The “This Is My Season” Trap

We love to declare “This is my season!” But what season are you really in?

• Are you still sowing?

• Are you finally harvesting?

• Or are you realizing the harvest isn’t what you thought it would be?

  
  

In reality, the harvest is not a rest season. It’s a maintenance season. In fact, harvest seasons often require even more of you than planting ever did. You’ve been praying for it… but are you prepared to manage it?

A Garden’s Process

• You till the soil.

• You plant the seed.

• You water and wait.

• THEN, you harvest.

But harvesting requires:

• Time

• Tools

• Strength

• Strategy

• Discipline

And even after harvesting, you still have to:

• Store the fruit

• Share the fruit

• Preserve the fruit

• Reinvest the fruit

Otherwise it rots. It molds. It attracts pests, and it wastes.

The Call to Deeper Stewardship in Kingdom Business

The harvest is not the climax. It’s the transition into deeper stewardship for kingdom impact.

So if you’re chasing harvest just to “arrive,” you’re out of alignment. God isn’t just trying to bless you. He’s trying to BUILD you.

“She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.” -Proverbs 31:17 (NIV)

Strength and diligence: a Proverbs 31 reminder for every kingdom builder.

Diligent hands are required for kingdom work... Not just for sowing. Not just for reaping. But for continuing the work God has placed in your hands.

As You Grow, Remember This:

1. Sowing is holy. Even when no one sees it.

2. Harvest is heavy. Don’t confuse reward with rest.

3. Labor is a lifestyle. But when it’s aligned with your God-given purpose, it doesn’t drain you. It fulfills you.

   
   

Self Reflection: Ask Yourself

What does stewardship look like for me in this season?

Are you sowing, harvesting, or maintaining? Write it down and ask God to give you strength to manage the work in your hands.
