Break Up Your Fallow Ground!

We are walking in today:  Break Up Your Fallow Ground!

Hosea 10:12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.  Revival, another definition would be to recover, repair, or restore.  What is fallow ground?  Fallow ground, is ground that has been fruitful, and then it has been plowed over, and no seed has been sown in it, and therefore it has become unproductive.  Notice, there is a human emphasis here....it says that we are to break up--it is you that breaks up your fallow ground.  Now take another a look at another aspect of it here in Psalm 85:5  Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?  So, there is an absence of joy, of vitality--there is an absence of ecstasy.  The very word revive presupposes life.  You can only revive what has already had vitality--life that has become sick, weak, or apathetic.  I think the nearest analogy I can give is a recent case of a man who apparently drowned.  He had been under water for an incredible amount of time.  Then somebody pulled him out and worked and worked on him, and eventually life came again.  This is actually what it means to revive. It means to revitalize.  It means to restore lost power.  It means to recover lost energy.  In the Acts of the Apostles 3:19 we read, Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.  Whatever else we say about revival we have to recognize this, that revival is an act of mercy in the sovereignty of God.  If we are really going to get a concept of revival we have to get a vision of God's sorrow over sin.  We have to get a concept of how, day by day, we offend God.  Psalm 85:4 says, Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease. Wilt Thou be angry with us forever?  Psalm 80 verse 3, Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.  Notice, it is repeated again in verse 7 and in verse 19.  Cause Thy face to shine...You know, I think one of the awesome tragedies of our day is this: the people of Israel could not live if God turned His face away from them and seems now we cannot live if God turns His face on us!  Joel speaks about the priests, the ministers of God.  Look at Joel 1:13 Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.  Go over to Joel verse 12 and 13 of the 2nd chapter,  12) Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: 13) And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.  Then come down to Joel chapter 2 verse 17, Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?  Now how do you get to that state?  There is no way you can jump to that level in ten minutes.  It's a operation.  It's a process. It's a preparation.  There has to be an individual breaking up of fallow ground in each of us.  What is there in my individual life that obstructs the flow of the Spirit?  If you are going to break up fallow ground you have to get your own life into a state of discipline!!  We are the most undisciplined generation of believers ever.  There is no way of getting to revival unless previously there was brokenness.  In this revival--break up your fallow ground!!  The rain is coming!!  Amen!!!
I don't know about you, but I am gonna stand on the word, to sow myself in righteousness!  It is time to break up the fallow ground.  For whatever seeds that have been sown, or plowed over and are unproductive.  God will rain down in this season.  Keep holding on to His everlasting arm.  Break up the fallow ground--He is sending the latter rain in our marriages and finances.  Seeds are being restored, refreshed and replanted in to the good ground, awaiting the coming rain.  Come into the supernatural, that hard place that needs to be broken up for God to come in and do a new thing.  Pressed?  In need of a breakthrough?  Break up the fallow ground in our minds and hearts, Lord.  2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.  Break up your fallow ground, fiveamprayer!  Somethings have been hard this year and we are at the eve of a breakthrough.  Tell the devil that--Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.  There is still power in the precious blood of Jesus!  We will not back down nor turn around!!  We have sowed in the time of famine--2 Corinthians 9:10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)  It is God that is gonna make the way, He said He would never leave nor forsake us!  Break up that fallow ground in preparation for all that God is gonna do in your life!  We need to get out all of those unproductive things!!  All things are working for our good.  Put everything to work for God and His purpose!  Philippians 3:20-21 20) For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21) Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.  Fiveamprayer, take a look around, what is it that you are holding on to?!  Let it go and totally surrender it to God.  Break up the fallow ground of being able to do this thing without God!!  There is not success in that thought or idea!!  That is why that ground is so hard and is not yielding any fruit!!  Proverbs 11:18 The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.  One of the definitions for wicked is worthless, good for nothing, unprofitable.  How does that apply to us?  Where is it that we have not been obedient to God's instructions?  Is that the same place that the ground needs to be broken up?  Break it up and turn it over to Him and get that seed into the soil before the rains come!  As Jesus taught in Luke 8, what happens to seed that is not placed in good ground and receive water, will not have a hundredfold return.  That is why the breaking of fallow ground is so important!  If we are not able to get the seed into the ground and watered, it will yield nothing.  This planting of seed, bearing fruit is not a happenstance, God spoke this into existence way back in the beginning--Genesis 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.  So we know that when we operate in His word, we are guaranteed success!  No more hard, dry, wicked (unproductive) ground in our lives!!  Lay it all bare, unto the Lord!  He is trying to get something to you, to get through to someone else!  How dare you sit down on what He has given you and not move as He directs!!!  Break up that fallow ground, in your mindset!!  Ask God to rain down His thoughts into your mind, letting go of the way that the world thinks!  We need to go down to the alter and cry out and tarry like we used to.  Go to the alter to get your breakthrough from God.  Call on His name--there is power there for your breakthrough.  We serve the God of mercy and grace--2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.  Our strength is found in our weakness as we call out to Him. Call on Him and watch Him show up mighty!  He is restoring and rebuilding us!  Thank You God!!  There is no one who can do what He can and has done!  Thank You Lord for You mercy, peace and long-suffering!  Thank You for abiding faithful, Lord!  Break up the fallow ground in this season, it is time for a Holy Ghost revival!  I dare you to call on Jesus!  Call Him, "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!  Let Him know that you are not gonna let go until You bless me!  I am breaking up all of the fallow ground in my life, Lord pour out Your rain on me!"  Fiveamprayer, it is raining and we have already sown and are sowing.  Thank You for being God of Your word.  Giving the increase on what we have planted in good ground.  Fiveamprayer is breaking up the fallow ground, to get our breakthrough!  We want more of You and less of us!  Break up the fallow ground.  God is about to show up with His grace, mercy and favor!  Break up the fallow ground, all of that stuff that only God is able to fix.  He is sending the latter rain.  Be refreshed, restored, renewed--break up the fallow ground.  Thank You for this word, Lord!  Break up the fallow ground, those ways of the world that you have been walking in.  No more!!  Walk according to how the Lord directs you!  He is ordering our steps, remain on the path, turn not to the left or the right!!  Break up the fallow ground, God is sending the rain of righteousness.  He is opening up the windows of heaven an pouring out blessings that there is not room enough to receive!  Thank You Lord for daily bread!  We have been pressed and sowed in a time of famine--break up the fallow ground.  The fallow ground in our marriage and finances, break it up and yield to the Almighty God!   We stand on His word,in your marriage--what God has put together, let no man put asunder.  For those attacks in our mind we stand on--there is no weapon that if formed against us that will prosper!  Break up the fallow ground, fiveamprayer!  We stand on--by His stripes we were healed, for our, health we can be whole.  Break up that lie of lack--God is our Provider!  Isaiah 1:19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.  Break up the fallow ground!!  It is time for a Holy Ghost revival!  God is the restorer of our souls!  Thank You Lord!!  Break up the fallow ground, all of the seeds that you have sown, get them into this good ground, the rain in coming!!  It is coming down fiveamprayer!!  He is pouring out blessings on us!!  We need to pray to God like you used to!  Cry out to Him and seek His face!  Last week He taught us about wailing and travailing in prayer.  That is the kind of prayer we are talking about!  He will bless us abundantly, break up the fallow ground, in your mind.  Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.  Break up that fallow ground of fear and doubt.  Lay aside every weight that would so easily beset you.  We can cast our cares because He cares for us!  Cast down all vain imaginations that would attempt to exalt itself against the the knowledge of God!!  Break up that fallow ground, fiveamprayer!!  We are coming out and going through--do not make your home in the valley!!  We lift up fiveamprayer this morning, I can see them with shovels, turning the soil over and breaking up the fallow ground.  God, You said, You give seed to the sower.  So we must look to God for the seed that we will sow, because He gives the increase!  We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown, we lift up Cheryl while we stand on complete healing in her body.  She has reached out to touch the hem of Your garment.  We ask You Lord, for forgiveness in this revival and repent and turn from our wicked ways.  Thank You for forgiving us with no condemnation.  Break up your fallow ground, God will grant us that which we have requested.


We seal this prayer in His precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.
