WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING THE NEXT GENERATION? PART 4: WHAT ARE YOU PRODUCING?

WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING THE NEXT GENERATION? PART 4: WHAT ARE YOU PRODUCING? Galatians 5:22–23 (NLT) “But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!” In Part 1, we asked: WHAT ARE YOU FEEDING YOURSELF? We learned that what we consume matters because what we feed can grow. In Part 2, we asked: WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE YOU? We learned that what enters us must be processed. Hearing the Word is not enough. The Word must enter our hearts and transform our lives. In Part 3, we asked: WHAT IS FLOWING OUT OF YOU? We learned that what is happening inside us will eventually find expression through our words, attitudes, decisions and actions. Now we come to another important question: WHAT ARE YOU PRODUCING? Because something is always being produced by our lives. The question is not whether your life is producing something. The question is: WH...

POLLINATION: SPREADING THE SEEDS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS PART 6: THE CALL TO BE EFFECTIVE POLLINATORS

POLLINATION: SPREADING THE SEEDS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
PART 6: THE CALL TO BE EFFECTIVE POLLINATORS

Actively Spreading Righteousness Wherever God Plants You

Matthew 5:16

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”


In part 5, we learned about Pollination Failure:

When believers stop spreading life, stagnation sets in.

Spiritual, physical, educational, relational, and national systems decay without active pollination.

Hoarding gifts, knowledge, and faith leads to missed opportunities and lost generations.

The question now is: “How do we move from survival to active multiplication?”


 Light Is Meant To Be Shared

A candle never loses its flame when it lights another candle. Likewise, your faith, wisdom, and influence do not diminish when shared—they multiply.

God is calling you to active pollination—moving your growth outward, impacting lives, and transforming communities.


Spiritually 

Pray with purpose—pray for others, not just for self. Teach and mentor—pass on what God has shown you.

Evangelize—share the gospel, letting the Holy Spirit guide your influence.

The Spirit empowers you to be a divine pollinator, capable of spreading life beyond what you can imagine (Acts 1:8).


Physically 

Discipline your body to serve and endure.

Exercise not just for personal health, but to model stewardship of God’s temple.

Active living multiplies strength for service and influence.

A physically vibrant believer moves and inspires others, just like bees move pollen.


Educationally 

Share knowledge, mentor peers, tutor students, and train others. Apply skills in ways that impact your community.

Self-growth is the seed; teaching and sharing is the pollination. Education is meant to multiply—not be hoarded.


Relational & Marital Application

Invest in family, spouse, and friends with wisdom and love.

Serve in marriages, parenting, and friendships, letting your maturity bless others. Emotional and relational growth is meant to flow outward, not remain private.

Healthy relationships are living proof of active pollination.


National Application

Be an example in your workplace, community, and nation. Uphold truth, integrity, and justice.

Actively participate in nation-building, mentoring future leaders, and influencing systems positively.

Ghana rises when believers actively spread righteousness.


Illustration: The Candle And The Field

A candle doesn’t lose light when it lights another. A believer’s life multiplies influence when shared:

Prayer covers more people

Knowledge touches more minds

Love strengthens more relationships

Integrity builds stronger nations

Pollination is active, intentional, and outward-moving.


Reflection

Am I actively spreading what God has grown in me?

Who needs my influence, knowledge, or mentorship right now?

How can I move beyond comfort and multiply my impact this week?


Prayer

Lord, please empower me to be an effective pollinator. Let my faith, knowledge, and gifts flow to others. Help me shine Your light, transform lives, and multiply righteousness wherever I am planted. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

👉 PART 7: THE FINAL POLLINATION — Living as a Multiplying Influence

Because the ultimate measure of growth is the life you spread, the seeds you release, and the Kingdom impact you leave behind.


Do you love this message?

Then don’t keep it to yourself.

Share it with someone who needs clarity, direction, or renewal.

Let this word travel beyond you.

If it challenged you, let it change you.

If it spoke to you, let it speak through you.

Be a carrier—

Pollinate righteousness where God has planted you.

WHEN FOLLOWING JESUS COSTS EVERYTHING PART 7: WHAT IS YOUR “ONE THING”?

WHEN FOLLOWING JESUS COSTS EVERYTHING PART 7: WHAT IS YOUR “ONE THING”? Luke 18:22 (NIV) When Jesus Christ heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing…” In Part 6, we encountered the rich young ruler—a man who was disciplined, moral, and sincere, yet walked away from Jesus Christ because of one thing he could not surrender. He was close to Jesus—but not surrendered to Him. Opening Thought 🌅 Sometimes, the greatest barrier between you and your next level in God is not many things—it is just one thing. Not obvious. Not loud. But deeply rooted. Key Phrase “ You still lack one thing …” Insight 🔍 This statement is both simple and profound. It means: You can be doing many things right… and still miss one thing. You can be progressing… and still be held back. You can be committed… and still be divided. The rich young ruler didn’t lack discipline. He lacked surrender in one area. And that one thing became everything. Deeper Application 🔥 Your “ one thing ” may not be money—but ...

THE GREAT WALL: WHEN WALLS FAIL PART 2 — THE ENEMY AT THE GATE: STRONG WALLS, WEAK WATCHMEN

Image
THE GREAT WALL: WHEN WALLS FAIL PART 2 — THE ENEMY AT THE GATE: STRONG WALLS, WEAK WATCHMEN In Part 1, we saw that walls do not fail because they are weak; they fail when the gates are compromised. Even the mighty Great Wall of China, built with stones, sweat, and sacrifice, could not stop an enemy when its gatekeepers failed. True strength lies not in the wall itself, but in the vigilance and integrity of those who guard it. Now in Part 2, we explore how weak watchmen at the gate can undo even the strongest defenses. Every wall has two sides: the builders who raise it and the watchmen who guard it. A wall can be tall, thick, ancient, and mighty…but if the hearts of its watchmen grow tired, distracted, or compromised, the enemy does not need strength — just an opportunity. The Great Wall teaches us this: Strength is useless without vigilance. Protection is fragile without attention. A boundary is only as safe as the person standing at the gate. Let’s journey deeper. THE STORY — Part 2 ...

🐦THE TAILORBIRD AND THE WISDOM OF STARTING SMALL PART 1: USING WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR HANDS

🐦THE TAILORBIRD AND THE WISDOM OF STARTING SMALL PART 1: USING WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR HANDS Exodus 4:2  “What is that in your hand?” Luke 16:10  “He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much…” PERSONAL ENCOUNTER STORY Recently, I came across something that genuinely arrested my attention. I was scrolling through TikTok one evening when I saw a short clip about a small bird called the tailorbird. At first, I thought it was just another nature video—something interesting but ordinary. But as I kept watching, something unusual happened. This tiny bird was shown “ sewing ” leaves together to build its nest. At first, I doubted it. It looked almost staged. But curiosity pushed me further. I paused the video… watched it again… and then again. That moment didn’t just stay on TikTok—it followed me off the app. I found myself searching: “ Is this real? How does a bird sew leaves?” And that was the beginning of a deeper journey. The more I researched, the more I r...
