HINT: Right in the middle of the Pentecost passage in Leviticus 23, God suddenly inserts a command about leaving the edges of the harvest field un-reaped!
“And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, nor shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest.” — Leviticus 23:22 (ESV)
Why did God place the law of gleaning for 'the poor and the sojourner' (Leviticus 23:22) right inside the instructions for the Feast of Pentecost?
✨ PERSONAL LESSON
Written Into the Harvest Blueprint
“And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, nor shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest.”
If you have ever felt like an outsider looking in, look at Leviticus 23:22. Before you ever arrived at the field, God commanded the corners of abundance to be reserved for you.
SAY THIS ALOUD
“I am never an afterthought to God; He wrote my seat into His harvest from the beginning.”
