The Seed in You

by Benjamin E. Thompkins Jr. in Religion, June 28, 2008

Talks about the Word of God and how it must be a Seed within your heart, allowing God to work on your behalf.

The last example Jesus gives in this parable is the one that He wishes for everyone to walk in; day by day. The Good Ground, is the ground that enables you to endure, until the break through comes. The Good Ground is established in the Promises of God; no matter what the trial or tribulation is, they endure; in Joy and Confidence – knowing that their request will come, no matter how long it may take, no matter how it may come. And as that good ground becomes stronger, the end result brings the fulfillment of God’s Word more and more in their personal life. They start to live the Promises written, they start to experience the truth of what was written; they start to live the life that was meant for them – in full abundance.

Where is your heart today, in this moment? Are you walking on the Way Side, when it relates to the Word? Is it on the Stony Ground, full of doubt? Are you being choked out by the cares of this World? Or is your heart in the Good Ground, allowing yourself to receive the Promises for your personal life; enduring until the Harvest comes? Blessed are those that are of this good ground, for they walk in the Peace and Fullness of the Living God; no matter what they face, no matter what the situation is; the Word has become their Foundation. Though they may slip and fall short at times, they always run back to the Word for their guidance, direction, inner peace.

It is written in Isaiah 55:11, “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth, it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” God is faithful, He can be trusted; He paid a high price for you to be completely free in all areas of your life, read Isaiah 53. He left His Word down here as a Seed for our Hearts and Minds; so that we can apply His wants, according to our situations. Do you trust in yourself, your own intellect; or do you trust in the God that you accepted into your life; according to His Seed, the written Word? Water your Seeds daily, by reading a little bit of His Word each Day; watch the Reality of the Word, manifest in your personal life; experience the Peace and Assurance that is a part of the Harvest.
