Today's Scripture
The sower sows the word. (Mark 4:14, NKJV)
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Scripture tells us that the Word of God is like a seed. Just like planting a seed in the ground, when you plant the Word of God in your life, it will produce a harvestthe blessing and fruit of Gods promises!
How do you sow the Word? By simply putting it into practice. By obeying it and applying it to your everyday life. Those next few verses in Mark 4 tell us that the seed of the Word can be sown into different types of soil. The soil represents our heart condition. The key is to make sure that nothing steals the Word of God out of your heart. Dont allow bitterness and offense to fester. Dont compare and be envious of others. Instead, choose forgiveness and keep an open and humble heart toward the Lord. As you dwell on His Word and stay close to the Father through prayer and worship, that seed will take root. It will grow and develop and bring to pass the harvest of righteousness in every area of your life!
A Prayer for Today
Father, thank You for the seed of the Word that will not return void in my life. I choose to open my heart to You and say, Have Your way in me. I choose love, I choose forgiveness, and I choose to surrender every part of my life to You in Jesus name. Amen.
