[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.]

In our opening verse, God commands us to sow ourselves for righteousness, and seek the Lord till He rains righteousness on us. Why is righteousness so important? Righteousness is our ticket for reighning. Remember, mankind was created to have dominion and rule on behalf of God. However, Satan deceived mankind into sin and consequently, mankind lost dominion. Sin is Satan’s strategy to strip mankind of dominion. That is why Satan today is investing heavily to push many into so sinful and sensual acts. It’s impossible to reign with sin in our lives. Remember David who had never lost a battle, when he committed adultery, his own son organized a coup and removed him from power and David who killed Goliath could not prevail against his own son. Sin stripped David of his dominion. So make no excuse for sin. Sow yourself to righteousness, seek the Lord until He rains His righteousness on you. Remember, in Christ Jesus, you have been made righteous so all you need to do is declare “in the name of Jesus, from today I will walk in righteousness,” then put away childish things and begin to reign.
