You Eat What You Plant

Are you dealing with a harvest that you didn't realize you planted? That one lie, that one drink, that one click....these seeds never stay seeds. They become fruit. And sooner or later, every man eats from the tree he's been planting.In this episode, Steve Alessi opens Proverbs to a sobering picture Solomon paints — of men who didn't drift away by accident, but who rejected knowledge, refused correction, and eventually ate the fruit of those decisions. But God's wisdom was never meant to restrict your life — it's meant to protect your future.Listen today to find out why a wise man doesn't wait until the harvest to change, and why you must make changes today while you're still planting.Verse of the Day: Proverbs 1:29-31Your Daily Man-Up Challenge: Identify one seed you're planting that you don't want to harvest five years from now — procrastination, anger, neglecting your health, too much screen time, a hidden habit no one knows about. Don't make excuses. Pull the weed while it's still small. Then plant one good seed today: read God's Word, pray with your family, encourage your wife, serve someone, apologize. The life you'll live tomorrow is being planted by the choices you make today.Tap HERE to send us a text!NEW TO THE MEN’S MORNING DEVOTIONAL? Welcome!The Men's Morning Devotional is a podcast to help you man up in every way - in your faith, your family and your work - by spending a few minutes getting into the Word before you face the world. Every weekday, you'll get a challenge and encouragement from Scripture that speaks to the pressures you carry as a husband, a father, and a leader.
