• Galatians 6:7-10
    Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.
     
  • Exodus 23:16
    and the Feast of Harvest, the firstfruits of your labors which you have sown in the field; and the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you have gathered in the fruit of your labors from the field.
     
  • Luke 6:38
    Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.'
     
  • Proverbs 22:8
    He who sows iniquity will reap sorrow,
    And the rod of his anger will fail.

     
  • Isaiah 59:2-3
    But your iniquities have separated you from your God;
    And your sins have hidden His face from you,
    So that He will not hear.
    For your hands are defiled with blood,
    And your fingers with iniquity;
    Your lips have spoken lies,
    Your tongue has muttered perversity.

     
  • Hosea 8:7
    “ They sow the wind,
    And reap the whirlwind.
    The stalk has no bud;
    It shall never produce meal.
    If it should produce,
    Aliens would swallow it up.

     
  • Hosea 10:12
    Sow for yourselves righteousness;
    Reap in mercy;
    Break up your fallow ground,
    For it is time to seek the LORD,
    Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.
