The bible tells us that God’s word is like a seed. Just like planting a seed in the ground, when you “plant” the word of God in your life it will cultivate a harvest of blessing and the fruit of God’s promises.
How do you cultivate God’s word? By simply putting it into practice. By obeying it and applying it to your everyday life. Later in Mark 4, the bible says that the seed of God’s word can be sown into different types of soil. The soil represents our heart condition.
The key is to make sure that nothing steals the word of God out of your heart. Don’t allow bitterness and offense to fester. Don’t compare and be envious of others. Instead, choose forgiveness and keep an open and humble heart toward your heavenly Father.
As you dwell on His words and stay close to Him through prayer and worship, that seed will take root. It will grow and develop and help you see clearer how to bring to pass God’s best plan for you, in every area of your life!
