The Rocky Ground Seed Parable!
The rocky ground seed means avoid the wish and wash attitude that will cause you to lose your seed. This means today you feel like “I am turning a new leaf to change my life for better, but tomorrow you feel like “I don’t think it is necessary after all the world is full of evil things. So what? (Rocky ground). The seed in you want to grow, but it needs you to prepare the right place to stand, not the heart of stone.
“The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it with joy, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the time of testing, they fall away.” Luke 8:13.
For the seed to become productive and fruitful, you must be willing to let go of the desire that will not make it appropriately rooted in the soil, or else the wind will easily uproot it. When you allow your wrongful desires to take over, you will lose sight of God’s word in your heart, and fall into temptation because you don’t trust the growth process of the seed.
Don’t be too soft on the temptation that will make you fall into sin; instead, resist or stay away from the temptation that will tempt you to give up. Do not let your perspective of the current condition kill your dream and aspirations because they are a trap. If you want your dreams to become a reality, then you must reposition your mind to see them as opportunities for growth.
“When you ask for something, don’t have any doubts. A person who has doubts is like a wave that is blown by the wind and tossed by the sea.” James 1:6
Don’t let your thoughts, condition, and past control the growth that God desires for you. Instead, increase your faith in God that you can achieve anything you set your mind to do. A person who believes in God will never doubt his abilities or capabilities. “If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.” Matthew 21:22
Prayer:
1. Spirit of the living God, breathe upon my seed and renew my thirst again for you.
2. Oh! Lord help me to grow spiritually speedily this year in Jesus’ name.
