There is a tendency in many Christians, I think, that after they have been doing the will of God for a long time, to grow weary of well-doing, because they think that they are not going to reap (they are not going to see all the fruit of their prayers and labors). This promise, the truth that we shall reap, was written down here by the apostle Paul, so that all of the churches in Galatia would be strengthened to continue to do God’s will in accordance with His word, even if there was no apparent immediate good fruit or result to be noticed by those believers. The exhortation, “Let us not grow weary”, rests upon the appeal made to them, and also to us, that we would not grow weary in doing good, but persevere in doing what is right, and in doing good works, realizing that there will indeed be fruit born to the glory of God through our efforts. In other words, this verse is meant to be an encouragement to continued labor and the expectation of even greater fruitfulness in our service to Christ. This evening I want us to look first at the great temptation to grow weary in well-doing. And then 2nd – The great promise of reaping if we do not lose heart.
