From the Head to the Heart pt. 2- matthew 13, Mark 4:13

In the Parable of the Sower it talks about good soil and how there are seeds dropped around into places of thorns, thistles, rocky soil, birds of the air, and the good fertile soil. Now I believe that the good soil is our hearts. The question is are we going to allow the seed to drop into places besides our heart. The seed is the word of God and we have to get the word of God from the head to the heart (the word of God is the Truth- answers the questions who God is and who we are). So how does one get the seed into the soil to birth action? By getting rid of the thorns, thistles, rocky soil, birds of the air, and even the false seeds. Waking up to the reality of addiction of worldly things, lies from the enemy, anything that comes from the enemy, and anything that doesn't seek Him first. Cutting those things out that are built up around the soil, the weeds among the wheat. Most successful way to do this is sacrifice (Romans 12:1-3). Seek the Kingdom first. Asking the Lord to search your heart to the things that are hindering the seed from getting into the good soil. It comes from Fasting and Prayer. Fasting- getting rid of all the stuff that is choking the growth. Prayer- He illuminates what still needs to be cut out and tells you the seed that is implanted in you. This is said in Mark 4 that this is the most important parable, you don't understand this how can you understand any other. Next blog i will chat about how to cultivate this true seed.
