FAITH THAT BRING S RESULTS. Par t. 1 (Cont.) In Mark 4: 1 – 9, Jesus taught the parable which illustrate that the Word is to the kingdom of God what a natural seed is to a harvest. The story of the sower is the key to unlocking all the Word of God. The Lord used the comparison of His Word to a law of nature that is unchangeable, not an institution of man. You can cheat or manipulate nearly all systems that men have created. The legal system can be beaten, letting the guilty go free. Our educational system can be beaten, passing students who haven’t really learned the material. But you can’t change seedtime and harvest time. What if a farmer waited until he saw his neighbors reaping their crops before he sowed for his crop? Regardless of how sincere he was, or the justification for not sowing his seed at the proper time, he would not reap a crop overnight. The law of seedtime and harvest cannot be violated. This is why our Lord chose to compare the way His Word works to a seed. There is a germination process of the Word of God in our life that takes time and can’t be avoided. In Mark 4:28 Jesus himself said first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. When we ask God for something that He has declared in His Word, for example a healing, believe that we have received it. Even though we have not seen the manifestation, the seed is planted in our heart. As we keep confessing and thanking God, this seed is watered and will grow and bring in the harvest which is for sure. Hallelujah.
