Two Biblical Principles of FfF

1. Faithfulness with little (Stewardship)
Jesus told a story of a master who entrusted some money to his servants while he went away on a journey. Some of his servants invested the money to earn a profit, while one servant buried the money in the ground and it did not earn a profit. When the master returned, he was very pleased with the servants who had earned him a profit and put them in charge of many things. However, he was very angry at the servant who did not use the money to earn a profit, and he took away even the little he had, to give to the other servants.

God is like the master of the story. If you are faithful with little God will add to you but if you are not faithful with little, He takes away. If you are faithful with the land God has given you, even if it is a little, then God will add to it.

2. Giving to recieve
Jesus said, "give and it will be given to you" (Luke 6:38). This breaks the yoke of selfishness. You cannot keep taking from the land without giving first.

If you ask God for His wisdom to understand FfF and the faith to do it with all your heart, He will help you to be the best farmer in the world.
