Tending Your Garden

Mark 4:26-27 (NKJV) And He said, “The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how.

When a farmer plants his seed in a field, it doesn't end there. He doesn't just sit around looking at the clock or the calendar and wait on his harvest. If that farmer wants the most out of the harvest he has coming, he's going to have to tend that field. He's going to have to get in there and keep the weeds pulled out, the insects out and any other thing that would seek to destroy or harm his crop. In the same way, we're going to have to keep a watch on our spiritual gardens if we want to produce any fruit. There are spiritual weeds - the cares of this life and mental strongholds. We'll have to learn to cast those cares on Jesus and not be anxious or worried about anything. We'll have to learn to take our thoughts captive and get rid of every negative thought. We'll have to learn to pray to break those mental strongholds that keep us from walking in faith. As you renew your mind to the Word of God, your are planting spiritual seed. Seed that when watered with faith, will produce a harvest. However, if you don't tend your garden, you may not see any results of that seed.

Have a Blessed day

Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
May God Bless you EXCEEDINGLY, ABUNDANTLY, ABOVE ALL YOU CAN ASK OR THINK!
