Magnifying Glass

magnifying flowers

In Matthew 13 we read about the parable of the seed sower and the people who hear God’s Word and don’t do anything about it.

We always talk about “those people”.  All we actually do is judge others by having spiritual arrogance, which means God will have to humble us.

But it’s time to put the magnifying glass on ourselves.

How often when you read the bible or listen to teachings, does it just go over your head and doesn’t penetrate your heart?

When you read out of the Word, meditate on it and allow it to become a revelation. That is when it penetrates your heart!

Very truly I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life. Very truly I tell you, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live.

John 5.24-25

Choose every day to live God’s Word and to follow it.

1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he [b]meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the [c]rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
