THE. SEED (2)

Text : Luk 8:11

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

In explaining the parable of the Sower,  Jesus said two things are essential :

1. Your eyes and

2. Your ears. 

 “How blessed are your *eyes* because they see, and your *ears* because they hear!Mat 13:16 ISV

That is,  any eye and ear that can see and hear the things of the kingdom are blessed.This is because not all eyes and ears see and hear it. 

Without these two elements,  no one can gain understanding of the kingdom matters. Hence,  you must consistently pray to the father to open your spiritual eyes and ear that your heart may be flooded with understanding. Eph. 1:17-18.

The parable of the Sower helps us to know that there are basically four different kinds of believers:

1. The By-the road side believers.

2. The stony believers. 

3. The thorny believers

4. The good ground believers. 

Now, one thing is common to them all: they all received the seed. The SEED is the word of God.(Luke 8:11).

It is worthy to note that this parable is not  addressing people outside the Church, but those that have had the opportunity of hearing the word of God.

However,  hearing alone is not enough, it is what you do with what you have heard that counts. 

But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.James 1:22 KJV 

What are you doing with THE SEED?  what are you doing with the word of God you have been exposed to? 

THE SEED was sown into your life so it can grow into fruition. 

Hearers of God's word are like trees. God has an axe ready at the lowest part of the trees. He will cut down every tree that does not bring forth good fruit. He will throw these trees into the fire.’Mat 3:10 EasyEnglish

 *God is expecting fruit from the seed of His word He has sown into your life. Don't be a fruitless tree.* 

Bible reading: Matthew 13:1-23.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
