It Is God That Gives The Increase
Harvesting Blessings: Unveiling the Spiritual Journey in 'It Is God That Gives The Increase'
Lyrics
Yes, we water and we sow, Into all the world we go
Expressing the act of sowing seeds and spreading the message globally.
And we preach the gospel that the world may know
Preaching the gospel to make the world aware of it.
But the harvest seems so slow, and we face a fearful foe
Despite efforts, progress in spreading the message is slow, and there is a formidable adversary.
Will we ever see God's blessing here below
Questioning the likelihood of experiencing God's blessings in the current circumstances.
It is God that gives the increase for the work is not your own
Acknowledging that the increase and success in the work come from God, not individual efforts.
It is God that gives the increase, that His glory may be shown
Highlighting that God's increase is for the purpose of revealing His glory.
For the Spirit of God is working In a place that is not known
Emphasizing the unseen, spiritual work of the Holy Spirit.
Let us everyone be patient till the precious fruit is grown
Encouraging patience among all individuals until the desired results (precious fruit) are achieved.
He has promised us his might, and He joins us in the fight
Reminding of God's promise of strength and support in the spiritual battle.
He says, look and see the fields already white
Directing attention to the plentiful opportunities for spreading the message.
Walk by faith and not by sight, through the dark and lonely night
Encouraging reliance on faith rather than visible evidence, especially in difficult times.
Gird your mind with strength and keep on doing right
Advising to strengthen one's resolve and continue doing what is right.
It is God that gives the increase, for the work is not your own
Reiterating that the increase in the work is attributed to God, not individual endeavors.

Reinforcing the idea that the increase is divinely granted.
That His glory may be shown
Stressing that the purpose of God's increase is to display His glory.
For the Spirit of God is working in a place that is not known
Reaffirming the mysterious and unseen work of the Holy Spirit.
Let us everyone be patient, till the precious fruit is grown
Encouraging universal patience until the intended results are fully realized.
