God Gives the Increase
I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. – 1 Corinthians 3:6–7
Reflection
We are vessels in God’s work—planting seeds, watering faithfully—but only He produces growth. Pride tempts us to take credit, yet all fruit belongs to Him. When we release results into His hands, peace replaces striving. Our part is faithfulness; His part is increase. True success is not what we build but what He blesses through our obedience.
Application
Reflect on areas where you need to release results to God
Give Him glory for any fruit produced through your service
Pray for humility to remain a vessel pointing to Him alone
Connection
Thank You, Lord, for giving the increase in every seed planted. Keep me humble and faithful, always pointing glory back to You. In Jesus' name. Amen!
