Sowing Seeds Of Righteousness

"For as rain and snow come down from the heavens,
and return not there again, but water the earth and make
it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed
 to the sower and bread to the eater,

So shall My Word be that goes forth out of My mouth;
it shall not return to Me void, without producing any effect,
useless, but it shall accomplish what I please and purpose,
and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it."
(Isaiah 55:10-11)

"Sow for yourselves according to righteousness, uprightness and right
standing with God; reap according to mercy and loving-kindness.
Break up your uncultivated ground, for it is time to seek the Lord,
to inquire for and of Him, and to require His favor, till He comes
and teaches you righteousness and rains His righteous
gift of salvation upon you."
(Hosea 10:12)

"And God Who provides seed for the sower and bread for eating will
 also provide and multiply your resources for sowing and increase
the fruits of your righteousness, which manifests itself in
active goodness, kindness, and charity."
(11 Corinthians 9:10)
