Luke 8:10-15

We discovered that God's Word is a seed (Luke 8:11). Now we see that the Bible says that we, as believers, are God's garden the place where seed is planted. The question for you to consider is: who determines the harvest? God, or you? The harvest I speak of is the fruit, or result, of the Word of
God. The harvest of blessing that God's Word produces in your life. I suggest that the harvest is mainly controlled by the one who determines what seed is planted. Would you agree? If wheat seed is planted, it is unreasonable to expect a harvest. If only a few seeds are planted, it is unreasonable to expect a large harvest. Wouldn't you agree? Yes, you are God's field, but He allows you a lot of freedom to
choose what will be produced in your life. And the main way you choose is by choosing what seed will be planted in your heart and mind. You can choose something other than God's Word. You can also
choose different areas of God's Word. Planting different scriptures will produce different results in your life.
If all you ever plant are scriptures on the new birth, you cannot expect to have a huge harvest of healing or financial blessing in your life. The choice is yours.



10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience (Luke 8:10-15).
