In this episode, I’m diving deep into one of the most powerful and unchanging principles in the Kingdom — The Law of the Seed. This is a law that has shaped my life, my marriage, my walk with God, and the work I do with leaders every single day.

Last week, during our Visioneering Year-End Review with my Executive Roundtable clients, I brought the 10 Spiritual Laws of Increase into our reflection process. As I walked them through these principles, it became so clear how often we pray for breakthroughs in areas where we haven’t planted the corresponding seed.

This conversation will challenge you, stretch you, and — if you let it — completely shift the trajectory of your relationships, your finances, your emotional health, and your spiritual walk as you head into the new year.

Key Takeaways

The Law of the Seed Never Changes

Just like gravity, this law operates whether you believe in it or not. What you sow is what you will reap — in your marriage, in your home, in your business, in your internal world. If I’m reaping frustration, disconnection, or scarcity, I have to be honest about the seeds I’ve been planting.

I Can’t Pray for Fruit I Haven’t Planted

This law asks me to look honestly at my desires:

Do I want more respect? Then I must sow respect.

Do I want deeper intimacy? Then I must sow presence, patience, and vulnerability.

Do I want financial increase? Then I must sow generosity — even when it stretches me.

Whatever I want more of, I must plant first.

God Cares About Motive, Not Performance

I learned the hard way that giving from a transactional place still produces transactional fruit. The shift happened when I began giving from a pure heart — vertically sourced from my relationship with God, then extended horizontally to my marriage and to others.

God Blesses What I Steward, Not What I Wish For

Increase is a Kingdom mandate — “be fruitful and multiply” wasn’t a suggestion. But God doesn’t multiply what I ignore or fear. He multiplies what I steward. When I began tithing during a season of financial strain, everything shifted. I sowed the very thing I needed — and God covered us in ways that made no earthly sense.

I Can’t Become a Kingdom Power Couple on Worldly Seeds

For years I carried a God-given dream of a marriage united in purpose, calling, and mission. I now understand that unity, dominion, and multiplication come from sowing Kingdom seeds — honor, respect, trust, understanding — not criticism, control, or emotional reactivity.

Overflow Is a State of Being, Not a Circumstance

Earth math looks at an apple and sees five seeds. Kingdom math sees entire orchards. Scarcity is a lie. In the Kingdom, I will never run out — not of ideas, not of love, not of affirmation, not of resources. God’s seed supply is limitless.

Notable Quotes

• “You cannot sow neglect and reap excellence.”
• “Whatever you desire more of, you must sow in that department.”
• “You will never run out of love, affection, honor, ideas, or resources. God’s seed supply is limitless.”
• “If nothing is changing, it’s time to ask different questions — not play victim.”
• “Unity leads to increase; division leads to decay. Every single time.”

Action Steps

• Ask God to show you exactly what seeds you’ve been planting — and what fruit they’re producing.
• Identify the area where you feel the most lack and intentionally sow the corresponding Kingdom seed.
• Spend time receiving vertically from God before giving horizontally to others.
• Choose one relationship and practice sowing presence, understanding, or patience without expectation.
• Reflect on what God has entrusted to you — and how you can steward it differently going into 2026.

As you step into this next season, ask God what seed He’s calling you to plant—and commit to sowing it faithfully. Your harvest will always match your seed.
