        (02/24/2000) The good soil
 
hello prayer warriors,

1. Prayer note: the good soil

This is the last type of soil in our series and this
is an extract of a Sunday message.

[Luke 8:15] But the seed on good soil stands for those
with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain
it, and by persevering produce a crop.

Retain it (in Greek: Katecho): To hold down fast from
going away; to firmly possess; to take possession.

How many of us hold fast and take possession of the
word for ourselves? When we hear something from God,
are we willing to take possession, to hold fast to it
and not let it go? To apply the Word into our lives
and say that God has given me this word and I am not
going to let anybody, myself or the devil or
circumstances steal this word away?

To me, I think the key word here is to take possession
and to persevere. Be it in the area of healing,
financial difficulty or other challenges in our life.

Are we willing to:

i. obey? If our mind is made up, it is going to be
difficult for us to hear from God.
[1 Timothy 1:18]
Timothy, my son, I give you this instruction in
keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so
that by following them you may fight the good fight.

ii. surrender to God's way and timing?
[Psalms 37:5] Commit your way to the Lord; trust in
Him and He will do this.
