Galatians 6:7–8 (KJV)
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

There’s a familiar saying: “The grass is greener on the other side.” Many fall victim to this illusion. Some Christians face challenges and begin to think that life before Christ was easier than life with Him. However, the truth is the grass isn’t greener on the other side, it’s greener where you water it.

In your old life, you “watered the ground” by living according to the dictates of men. Now, to enjoy the full benefits of your life in Christ, you must water your ground through the Word and fellowship with Him. Your life is a garden, prune it with scripture and water it through continual communication with God.

PRAYER FOR TODAY
Lord, help me to invest consistently in the things of the Spirit. As I water my life with Your Word, let my life flourish and produce lasting fruit.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION
My life in Christ is a flourishing garden! I water and tend it with the Word. As I invest in the things of the Spirit, I reap life everlasting!
