THE SOWER AND THE SEED
PARABLE OF THE SOWER AND THE SEED
Jesus said the kingdom of Heaven is like
a man that planted good seed in his field, but while his workers slept,
his enemy came and planted weeds and snuck away ...
|
Matthew 13:24-30
Another parable put He forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of Heaven
is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men
slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared
the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him,
Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it
tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto
him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest
while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let
both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will
say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in
bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. Another parable
put He forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is like to a grain
of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed is
the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among
herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in
the branches thereof.

Matthew 13:36-43
Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and His
disciples came unto Him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares
of the field. He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed
is the Son of man; The field is the world; the good seed are the children
of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The
enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world;
and the reapers are the Angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and
burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of
man shall send forth His Angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom
all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them
into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then
shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.
Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. |
Knowing the outcome of this parable,
to be the souls known as being weeds, being cast into eternal fire, we
should do our best to prevent our "gardens" from being overtaken by weeds
resulting in us being deemed as the weed.
THE SOWER AND THE SEED BIBLE STUDY
PARABLE OF THE SOWER AND THE SEED MEANING
Consider your mind as being a garden. You CHOOSE what SEED you want to
plant within yourself by planting thoughts of that which you experience by
way of your senses (Eyes, Ears, Nose, Touch, Taste and Thoughts) ... If
this seed or thought is accepted as TRUTH, you allow it into the depths of
your mind known by the science world as your sub-conscious mind. It is a spiritual place in the mind. In this secret
place we water our thoughts by belief, passion, pondering, study, dreams,
etc. until it grows and blossoms into a tree which bears fruits which will
become our words and deeds. However, like a garden, we must beware of the
seeds that become weeds that are brought in and planted by another means
other than ourselves.
Just as with a real garden, entities such as birds
can bring in just about anything and without careful watch on your garden,
you can awake one day to find things growing in your garden (Or Mind) that
you did not plant. The seeds and weeds within the garden of our minds
could be anything and could come from so many sources from the variouscommercials
on television or a radio to bad thoughts that just "pop into our minds"
... You may not have consciously accepted these seeds which became weeds
but unless they are identified
and pulled ... They will grow in the dark
recesses of your mind until they too become trees which produce fruit ...
Which also become your words and deeds.
I will prove this TRUTH to you.
Have you ever been thinking of a problem and just kinda forgot about it
cuz something else came up and later FELT like something was wrong but
couldn't remember what it was? Then, later you remember that problem,
resolve it and you FEEL better? Where do ya think that THOUGHT or SEED was
at when ya couldn't remember it? It was IN your sub-conscience mind ...
Growing into a WEED. Isn't that exactly how it happens too? Oft times it
is when you are asleep. Maybe you have a dream where a bad seed is
planted. Sometimes you will remember the dream and sometimes you won't.
On
the days when bad seeds were planted in your dreams and you don't remember
the dream, you can just feel it the next day that something is wrong, but
you don't know what. The bad news is you cannot stop the bombarding of
seeds from being cast into your mind. Even if you went and hid in a closet
you can still have bad thoughts and dreams. It is your enemy's job to try
and plant these seeds. The good news is that you can control this
infestation of seeds and weeds by your CHOICES. Pray daily for God to
remove any bad seeds or weeds that may have been planted within you with
or without your knowledge. In your daily life, expose ANY lie that comes
to mind ... By revealing TRUTH. IF you elect to identify and stop this
procedure from occurring and keep removing any weeds by poisoning them
with TRUTH, you can maintain a beautiful garden which will produce good
fruits, which will be seen and felt by others, by way of your words and
deeds.
THE SOWER AND THE SEED BIBLE STORY
PARABLE OF THE SOWER AND THE SEED PLANTING
I seek to address those who are caught up in the sexual trap of the mind set
forth by our adversary and his imps ... Many would prefer to keep this topic
locked up tight in their closet, but we have a few who have CHOSEN to bring
these lies of the soul, to the light of TRUTH in hopes that it will ... Set them
FREE from it’s grasp. It is awesome that these few souls have CHOSEN to be free
from this habit created by the devils. These few souls have cried out in this
forum and I will not turn a deaf ear just because another may find it offensive
to discuss. God knows, I have never been good at tickling ears. The TRUTH is
that there are more souls caught up in this trap of the mind than have CHOSEN to
reveal it so I speak to those souls as well.
Shall I keep the TRUTH or share it?
I will share the TRUTH as to help these souls, by bringing light to the path
that they are on as for them to return to their first love and the ONLY one who
can save their soul ... JESUS. Let us proceed ... Although cybering and online
porn sites are the newest fad, do not be deceived ... This trap is everywhere and
has been around for generations. The power of habit of this lure is that of
drugs. It is no different than cigarettes or any other habit forming lure with
the exception that this one can land your soul in Hell, which is satan’s will.
You can only become entangled in it's web by CHOICE. And you will find that the
TRUTH is ... CHOICE is the only way you can escape it. It begins with what
appears to be lil to nothing, One CHOOSES a lil peek, a lil flirt but as soon as
your soul CHOOSES this new drug, the seed is within ya and your soul begins to
adapt to the plague. It begins to crave more and demands the dosage to be
increased. Before ya know it you are doing things that if even pondered on as a
child, would have made you vomit.
Know this TRUTH then
... Once, we were all lil
children and had NO concept of such things. (Our Father knows this TRUTH and
still sees us as that ... Just lost) At satan's word, the trap was set and
brought forth. The goal ... YOUR SOUL. The television is one of the
most used advertising methods of our adversary. There is a technique used by many
advertisers known as subliminal advertising. In producing television
ads, they insert a ‘frame’ within the film they produce, of a nasty
picture. The film, has hundreds or thousands of ‘frames’ on the reel,
and as the film plays, the one single frame passes so quickly that
it’s not detectible by the conscious mind, but your subconscious
perceives it.
This is a very clever
trick of the devil’s, not only to get you to buy the product that’s
being advertised, but the devil’s product as well ... temptation. You
may think you’re only watching a commercial for antacid, but the TRUTH is, what you’re watching is more stomach turning than that
double pepperoni pizza that caused your heartburn in the first place.
Having the sinful nature that we have, our subconscious mind lures us
to favor that particular product above others ... we don’t know why,
consciously, because the generic brand contains the exact same thing
and is half the cost, but the subliminal record that is in your
subconscious mind persuades you to reach for the name brand whose
subliminal advertisement has influenced you. An even sadder thing, is
that this filth is being implanted in our children’s minds too. Sick!
Criminal! This of course is illegal, but who’s gonna check every frame
of every commercial of every company that uses this deceptive method
of advertising? What can you do about it? Again, pray daily for God to
remove any bad seeds or weeds that may have been planted within you,
with or without your knowledge.
But, there are so many other avenues by which the enemy attempts to
reach within you. Even the whispers of our trusted "friends" are just
as bad. These foul thoughts sneak into the innocent soul and becomes a
secret thought. As we all know, secret thoughts are seeds like any
other thought that we are introduced to but these are planted deep
within and grow well in the darkness as they are a temporal lie and
fear the light of TRUTH as they would wither away in it’s light.
THE SOWER AND THE SEED BIBLE VERSE DISCUSSION
PARABLE OF THE SOWER AND THE SEED WARNING
Sooooooo, we find
that it is nothing more than a bad habit and that is why one performs it and
when it’s temporal effect has completed, you are left with the TRUTH that it is
foul to your soul. But you BELIEVE that you have become addicted to this habit.
The TRUTH is that this is not YOUR will, but the devils' plot. You only return
because it has become a habit. So how do we break this habit? The ONLY way to
break this habit is to cry out to JESUS. Now I know ya are thinking, brother I
have many times. But, have ya UNDERSTOOD what that means? YOU must CHOOSE to do
so and you will find the TRUTH is in the CHOICE. Remember that this is but a
plague of the mind and heart. A type of flu if ya will. A "temptation flu" ...
Ya only need to take the antidote medicine to be cured. Forget not that even
Jesus was tempted. The devil tempted Him and Jesus used the WORD of TRUTH to
reveal the lie.
We find that the prescription for the "temptation flu" is to
CHOOSE to reveal the TRUTH. The next time you feel the "temptation flu",
consider Jesus’ method. Read the Word. Try this ... Get your Bible, close your
eyes, fill your heart with belief and ask God, in Jesus’ name what it is that He
would have you read. Then, with eyes closed, open the Bible and point. The TRUTH
... Will set you FREE. Seek and find TRUTH and return not to the vomit lest it be
seen as your CHOICE.
PLANT GOOD SEEDS

Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are
true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever
things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of
good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on
these things. |
