✨ PERSONAL LESSON
From the Cutting to the Outpouring
“You shall count seven weeks. Begin to count the seven weeks from the time the sickle is first put to the standing grain.”
Even when a painful pruning or cutting happens in your life, in God's hands that sickle stroke is the exact starting line of a countdown to fresh spiritual power.
SAY THIS ALOUD
“Even in seasons of pruning, God has begun a countdown to a greater harvest in my life.”
