We know from the Word of God that the seed that Jesus is talking about in the parable of the sower is the Word of God. 

God's words are life; they bring healing, provision, and light to any situation. In order for the Word of God to produce in our lives, the condition of the soil (our hearts) needs to be open and ready to receive and believe His Words. 

2 Chronicles 16:9 says, “For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His.” 

God is seeking a heart who will believe and hold fast to His Word. That’s when the power of His Word can manifest, and He can show Himself strong in their life. 

Hebrews 4:12 says that “the Word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword.” 

The power in God’s Word is ready to bring life and overcome any trial we may go through in this life! Let’s be a church whose hearts are quick to believe God’s Word, confess God’s Word, and act on God’s Word. As we do, we know that He will see to it that we walk through every situation victoriously! Let’s be the soil that is quick to believe what God says about us!

We continue our new series on the parable of the sower. There will be times in our lives when we need to change the way we think according to what God values so that we know what is truly valuable in this life. Our hearts are the soil in which God is able to plant His purpose into our hearts, but it is up to us if we open our hearts to hear, believe and receive what God sees in us.

Let’s be the soil that is quick to believe what God says about us!

It’s vital for us to understand that our life is significant to God and that He has invested into us because we are His workmanship to do good things that He has prepared for us (Ephesians 2:10). We get to choose what kind of soil we want to be. Let’s choose to be that good soil that produces fruit for the Kingdom of God!
