Homily for Corpus Christi Sunday delivered by Deacon Bill Schneider.

"Let us examine our ways, test them, and return to the LORD." Lamentations 3:40 When we consider the spiritual life, it is natural to think of it as a field in which we sow good seeds and reap a rich harvest. But this is not always the case. Remember, our spiritual aims may be beyond the comprehension of our conscious minds, and our toils may yield little or no reward. Why is this so? Before we look into the parable of the good soils in our next episode of the Sower, let us first examine three things that may bring failure to the Sower's efforts. And these are inattention, lack of reflection, and incapacity to stand the test. The seed that fell on a footpath can be related to inattention or carelessness. One of the main reasons the seed failed to produce fruit was inattention by the Sower. The Sower was careless and paid no attention to what he was doing. He was not mindful of what was happening around him and did not consider the conditions necessary for the seed to grow. Likewise, inattention to our spiritual aim or personal growth on our part accounted for the failure to produce fruit. Therefore, reflect on shortcomings and how they prevent you from making progress. 2 Corinthians 13:5 says, "Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you fail to meet the test!" Every seed must be planted with hope for growth because hope gives us the desire to expect. And expectation brings reflection while reflection brings improvement. If we don't have a plan to reflect on our dream, it's easy to get lost in the sea of conformity. Seeds on rocky ground are a metaphor for people who have a wish and wash attitude. This means they do not take the time to think about what they are doing, and as a result, they fail. The parable of the Sower is an account for failure, which teaches that people who do not take the time to think about their actions will not succeed. And finally, the seeds that fell among thorns and were choked can be related to incapacity to stand the test. The truth is that many people fail because they cannot handle adversity. Even when God instructed us that the Sower's efforts failed due to inattention, lack of reflection, and incapacity to stand the test and avoid such situations, many people still conformed to failure. But, brethren, we can learn from these mistakes and apply them to our own lives to achieve success. Let us all be attentive, reflective, and resilient sowers so that our efforts will bear fruit. Amen. Philippians 1:6 says, "And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." Amen. Prayer: Psalm 51:10 - Oh Lord, create in me a clean heart, and renew a right spirit within me. Holy Spirit, help me examine my ways in my life and my motives for doing what I do so that I may better understand God's purposes for my life. Help me, oh Lord, to be attentive, reflective, and resilient over all things so that my efforts will not be wasted in Jesus' name. Amen. https://youtu.be/QtB5Mv-NmdE --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pastor-divineo/support

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...  Luke 8   5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it. 6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. 7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it. 8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold.  And when HE (Jesus) had said these things, HE cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 9 And HIS disciples asked HIM, saying, What might this parable be? 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.  

The Parable of the Sower! Part Three "Other seeds fell among thorns, which grew up with them and choked the seedlings." Luke 8:7 When Jesus spoke this parable, He was trying to help His disciples understand why some people who hear the gospel don't get saved. The seed that falls among the thorns represents those who hear, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the worries, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature (Luke 8:14). As a result, they never get around to doing anything with the gospel they heard nor allow God's given dreams to take precedence because they're too busy living for themselves. As Christ instructed us in Matthew 16:24 (paraphrase) - if you aspire for growth in life, you must employ the duty of self-denial. It would be best if you avoided the care of the world and the deceitfulness of riches that will make your seed miserable and die because allowing them is like planting your seed of greatness among the thorns. Remember, the world is full of greed and envy. So, avoid the desire to be rich quick because it might bring misery and premature death (seeds fell among thorns). "The blessing of the LORD makes rich, and he added no sorrow with it." Proverbs 10:22. 1 Peter 1:23 says, "For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God." Don't allow part of the world full of sin and evil to take advantage of you and choke the seed of life in your heart. Be wise how you mingle with friends and family who are full of good intentions but have not yet been saved. Remember, you are the seed of greatness in the world to change the world around you, but not them changing you. Jesus said, "Behold, I send you out as sheep amid wolves. Therefore, be wise as serpents and harmless as doves." Matthew 10:16. Gaining the whole world to lose your soul or die prematurely does not worth it. Do not let the worries of the past, present, and future choke you. Matthew 16:26 said, "Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?" The answer is Nobody. But with faith in God, all things are possible for those who believe in Jesus Christ. Everything has an appointed time and place. We must wait patiently for the right time to come. The seed of greatness in you has an appointed time but needs your patience and perseverance to become fruitful. God's promises are always there to be fulfilled, but give them a chance to grow and prosper you. "Be still in the presence of the LORD and patiently wait for God to act. Don't worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes." Psalm 37:7 Prayer: Lord, thank you for your word that helps me grow in faith. I come against every enemy's plan that may want to destroy my seed of greatness in Jesus' name. https://youtu.be/6p8xoV3VVKo --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pastor-divineo/support

The Parable of the Sower! Part Two "The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it joyfully, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the testing time, they fall away." Luke 8:13. Listen to what's being said with care as the word is being said because the world around us speaks in a proverbial voice. So, as we continue on the parable of the Sower, today we look into the Seed on Rocky Ground Seed. This seed falls on rocky ground, with little soil and no moisture. As a result, it does not grow because there is nothing to nourish the feeble life. For this seed to grow, it needs deep soil that will hold moisture and nutrients. The rocky ground represents people who hear the word of God but do not reflect on it or put it into practice. These individuals quickly forget what they have heard and do not allow the word to take root in their hearts. They may be superficially interested in spiritual things but are not committed to growing in their faith. The rocky ground seed also means avoiding the wish and wash attitude that will cause you to lose your seed. This means today you feel like, "I am turning a new leaf to change my life for the better, but tomorrow you feel like, "I don't think it is necessary; after all, the world is full of evil things. So what? (Rocky ground). James 1:6 says, "When you ask for something, don't have any doubts. A person with doubts is like a wave blown by the wind and tossed by the sea." The seed in you want to grow, but it needs you to prepare the right place to stand, not the heart of stone. Remember, for the seed to become productive and fruitful, you must be willing to let go of the desire that will not make it appropriately rooted in the soil, or else the wind will easily uproot it. When you allow your wrongful desires to take over, you will lose sight of God's word in your heart and fall into temptation because you don't trust the growth process of the seed. So don't be too soft on the temptation that will make you fall into sin; instead, resist or stay away from the temptation that will tempt you to give up. Do not let your perspective of the current condition kill your dream and aspirations because they are a trap. If you want your dreams to become a reality, you must reposition your mind to see them as opportunities for growth. Don't let your thoughts, condition, and past control the growth that God desires for you. Instead, increase your faith in God that you can achieve anything you set your mind to do. A person who believes in God will never doubt his abilities or capabilities. Amen. "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." Matthew 21:22 Prayer: Spirit of the living God, breathe upon my seed and renew my thirst again for you. Oh Lord, help me grow spiritually this year in Jesus' name. Holy Spirit, help me resist every spirit of doubt and unbelief in my life in Jesus' name. Amen. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pastor-divineo/support

"A farmer went out to plant his seed. As he scattered it across his field, some seed fell on a footpath, where it was stepped on, and the birds ate it." Luke 8:5 In Luke 8:4-8, Jesus uses a parable to communicate a powerful message to his listeners. The parable of the Sower tells the story of a farmer who plants seeds in different parts of his field. Some seeds grow and produce fruit, while others do not. The parable's point is that everyone has a role to play in life and whether they succeed or fail depends on their actions. For example, the seed on the wayside! The wayside seed means avoiding carelessness with God's word and dreams in your heart. The seed is the word of God that is supposed to bring greatness to your lives and make you better. However, a careless attitude will allow the enemy to take over the seed and destroy it. When you are careless about what you do or carry, it can be perilous and easy for someone to take advantage of it. The seed you don't guard will be effortlessly eaten by a goat (enemy); the seed you don't protect will be easily infected by disease (the sin of the world) and destroyed, and the seed you don't care for will become useless. In Luke 8:12, Jesus explained further, saying, "The seed by the wayside are the ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved." If you want to win the war against Satan, then keep your eye on your seed because the devil knows that the seed in you is your greatness. Therefore, don't allow your seed to drop at the wayside because you get caught up in worldly desires; instead, give time for God's Word and avoid inattention. Don't be "ever learning, and never coming to a knowledge of the truth" when you don't have time to listen to his voice or hear his word.1 John 3:9 says, "Anyone born of God refuses to practice sin because God's seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning because he has been born of God." The word of God brings life. John said, "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the Word was God. He was at the beginning with God. All things were made through Him; without Him, nothing was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it." John 1:1-5. Brethren, listen to God's words with care because it gives life. Amen. Proverbs 2:6 says, "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." Amen Prayer: Thank you for guarding the seed of life in me. Lord, I pray against every Spirit of carelessness that wastes away great things and souls in Jesus' name. https://youtu.be/eMh73axbXFg --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pastor-divineo/support

The SowerSeries: The Parables of Jesus Speaker: Aaron LockhartSunday EveningDate: 19th June 2022Passage: Luke 8:4-15

"If you ABIDE in me, and my words ABIDE in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you…You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and BEAR FRUIT and that your fruit should ABIDE, SO THAT whatever you ask the Father in my name, He may give it to you." —John 15:7,16   The Fruit Jesus is talking about isn't the product of WORK but the RESULT of ABIDING. What's REAL and TRUE in Heaven requires a SYNC with Earth in order to have its transforming affect. Everything Jesus came to bring depends upon YOU being IN SYNC with Him in order to manifest. Heb. 1:3 ...He upholds the universe (All Things) by the WORD of His power.  GOD's power flows through His Word. Have you ever noticed that the the Bible has a “BUT GOD…” for every bad condition? "Saul hunted David (to kill him), BUT GOD didn't give David into his hands." —1Sam 13:24 In every situation involving Sin & Death there's ALWAYS a BUT GOD hovering just above it, waiting for you to SYNC with GOD's Word and access it. Being in SYNC with GOD requires a solid connection between 2 POINTS: Heaven and Earth.  The Heavenly Connection is You living with your Attention, Affection, and Expectation on Jesus. The Earthly Connection is Jesus' Words living in you through your Conscience & Behavior. REMEMBER: It was the WORD of GOD that Satan attacked in order to severe the connection between GOD and Man: Has GOD said? In every situation, GOD has a WORD, pregnant with His Power and Will, ready to go to work, just waiting for a Sower to Speak it and Follow it. K'dom Authority comes from being in Sync with Jesus His WORDS abiding in you so that you KNOW exactly what YOU HAVE within you.  In Acts 3:6 But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold, but WHAT I DO HAVE I GIVE YOU. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, stand up and walk!” Acts 3:6 was a SYNC! Peter didn't WORK a miracle, he was in SYNC with a Miracle. Stop coming to church expecting K'dom results on earth w/o SYNCING up with Jesus! Revival occurs when the SYNCING between Heaven & Earth is strong. Reformation occurs when the SYNCING between Heaven & Earth is Expeditionary.

As we dive into this Summer Series, we have the privilege of hearing from some of our favorite Pastors and leaders from around the country as our Pastor takes time to rest, seek God, and recharge for the coming year. Today, we will hear from our own Youth Director, Kēvin Carlie. We hope you will engage in today's message and hear clearly what God has spoken over you.

Matthew 13:1-23The Parable of the Sower1 That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea. 2 And great crowds gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat down. And the whole crowd stood on the beach. 3 And he told them many things in parables, saying: “A sower went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. 5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, 6 but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away. 7 Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. 8 Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. 9 He who has ears, let him hear.”The Purpose of the Parables10 Then the disciples came and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” 11 And he answered them, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 For to the one who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14 Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says:“‘“You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never perceive.” 15 For this people's heart has grown dull, and with their ears they can barely hear, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.' 16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 17 For truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.The Parable of the Sower Explained18 “Hear then the parable of the sower: 19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path. 20 As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, 21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away. 22 As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful. 23 As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”

Homily for Holy Trinity Sunday delivered by Fr. Williams Abba.

We are in the midst of our series "God's Design for a Well-Lived Life." In this message we will discover that part of our new identity in Jesus is living and interacting with others in a way that makes Jesus known. That can be intimidating so this message will address that intimidation. The main text will be from "The Parable of the Sower" focusing on what it means to sow and how people respond. You, as a Christ-follower, have been sent to sow.

The Parable of the Sower

Homily for Pentecost delivered by Fr. Bryan Buenger.

Homily for Pentecost delivered by Fr. Williams Abba.

The post The Parable of the Sower appeared first on Hope Lutheran Church.

In this study of Luke 8:4-18, Dr. David Schmitt explores the Parable of the Sower, the explanation of this parable, and the opportunity Christians have to let their light shine in witness to Jesus.

Matthew 13 is a theologically rich chapter, speaking of the Kingdom of Heaven. As the people of God, we have received the mysteries of God revealed in Jesus Christ. We have received His grace, and we are responsible for sharing that with the lost. --Today we are not examining the four kinds of soil in the parable- rather, we are taking a closer look at the Sower himself. First, we observe that his only intention was to sow seed. Similarly, God did not give us the seed of the Gospel just to have us save it up and keep it to ourselves. He wants it to be sown- That is what Christ Himself left heaven and came to earth to do - to sow the seed of the Gospel among mankind. --The Sower's method of sowing his seed was to scatter it everywhere. That is what we are to do when we sow the seed of the Gospel- we are called to all the ends of the earth to tell the lost world about Jesus and what He has done for sinners. We need to make sure that everyone from every circle of our life hears the Gospel from our lips. If we want to see the Church grow, then we need to go and sow- --Was the Sower successful- The parable makes it clear that he lost a lot of seed. We have no control over the soil or the amount of fruit that each plant will produce. But God is the Lord of the harvest- When we have sown the seed, we have done our job- and then we can pray for Him to make it grow and be fruitful. --Let's pray for grace that we may always be ready to sow the seed of the Gospel- We must remember that different people will respond differently to the seed, but we need not lose hope. When we do our job and go and sow, we will see a multiutude of a harvest ready for Jesus-

Romans 8:28-30 - The doctrine of the perseverance of the saints is a contested doctrine. Those who hold to the cherished doctrine of assurance must acknowledge the difficult objections posed and not ignore them. Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones recognizes this and serves as a positive example of an exegete who does not shy away from engaging the most often-cited Scriptures that seem to contradict his personal beliefs. In a manner that not only demonstrates a responsible handling of Scripture, he also demonstrates humility in his exegetical task. In this message on Romans 8:2830 titled The Biblical Way, Dr. Lloyd-Jones outlines his principles of interpretation. He encourages interpreters of the Bible to operate on the principle of Scripture alone. Rather than allowing philosophy to govern one's interpretation, he argues that the Christian should allow Scripture to interpret Scripture. Furthermore, one should start with the unambiguous proof texts and then deal with the difficult texts in light of the clear statements. He applies these interpretive principles as he works through famous passages like the Parable of the Sower, Hebrews 6, and 2 Peter 2. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones lays out interpretive principles that all Christians should implement in their personal study of sacred Scripture.
