Matthew 13:22 (NKJV) 22 Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
Have the cares of our situation or the cares of this world been taking us on a little detour away from God?
How about our money, our work or our so-called needs? Are we letting them interfere with what we should be doing as God’s children? Are we letting them lead us, control us and ruin our fruit-bearing?
These things will come and will tempt us and they will try to suck the life, God’s life, right out of us. They will try to get us to the point where we don’t even think about God.
Be careful not to get sidetracked or caught up in these things. It’s not worth it. They don’t bring life, but destruction.
Stay close to God, hear His words and heed His words. Follow Him and He will help us to bear good fruit!!
Matthew 13:23 (NKJV) 23 But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.”
Let God teach us how to be FRUIT BEARERS! Amen.
