When we believe something will happen that was not promised to us, we operate in the realm of presumption instead of faith.
1. You will reap what you sow. People often think only of money when it comes to this principle. However, God considers money as a simple thing. If we can't handle the simple, how can He entrust the more important issues of sowing and reaping to us?
Praying against the harvest you sowed is against God's Word.
2. Don't copy others. Just because something worked for another believer doesn't mean it will work for you. That person had a revelation from God. You need to seek God for what He wants you to do.
Five Reasons We Make Presumptions
1. I want it to happen.
2. I think it should happen.
3. God loves me, so He's going to do this for me.
4. I've worked hard and deserve this.
5. I've misunderstood what God says.
The Word tells us to sow good seed.
I Peter 3:10 - Those who would love life and see good days:
Refrain his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.
Don't say everything that comes into your head. Seek peace and pursue it.
I Peter 3:12 - The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and His ears are open to their prayers. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.
