Kingdom Secrets! 1
Would you like to know the greatest secret to the kingdom of Heaven? Would you like heaven to be manifest in your life, your heart and your soul? Then join me on our next enchanting journey with the Lord.
Please
read Mark 4:1-20. Read it in a few different translations. Ask the Holy Spirit to
reveal the secrets contained in these verses to you personally so that you can
walk in all that He has for you.
Jesus said that this was His most important
teaching. If that is so then it would be wise for us to know and understand
what He was saying. Have you ever noticed that there are times in your life
where you read something in the Bible and it just makes no sense? This is
simply because it gives your Father great pleasure for you to seek Him for the
meanings of Scripture so that you can go on a wonderful, exciting journey of
discovery with Him. He is the Word of God and desires for you to walk with Him
so that He can speak to you.
In the parable of the farmer that sows seed the first thing you see is Jesus preaching to a large crowd. He was sharing a secret with them and for most that is all it was. A secret, a mystery, and they never came to understand what He was saying. As a result, it never became a reality to them. The secret behind the parable He only shared with His disciples – those who gathered around Him at His table where they were intimate with Him. It is the same with you. It is in the moments that you are alone with Him and you ask Him to reveal what He is talking about that He unlocks the meaning for you.
There are many things you may hear through
preaching and teaching, which are good and necessary as this is how Jesus gets
to sow His Word, or Himself, into you. However, I do encourage you to be
selective about what you are listening to. Jesus came to set you free, especially
from guilt and condemnation, so if there is something you hear that makes you
feel worthless, guilty or condemned before God, pay attention as there is
another voice and not the Lord’s that you may be hearing.
My prayer for you this year is that you would hear His
voice and see His face like never before! 😊
The Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of
Christ and the Spirit of the Father, in other words He has the same heart and
mind that they have, ALWAYS leads you to where you experience righteousness
(the forgiveness of ALL sin), joy and peace. if you are not experiencing those
three things then you have the right to check out what you have been hearing,
to take it to the Lord and to ask Him to help you sift through that which is of
Him for you and that which is not. At no time, however, do you have any right
to judge the person through whom the message came.
Please, please, do not attack anyone in the body of
Christ. This is not healthy or beneficial to your walk with Jesus. Let’s love
each other even if we do not understand or agree with each other.
This parable is all about how Jesus and His
kingdom works in your life. This is the secret to answered prayer, wisdom, understanding
and any other thing you need in life. Unless you understand His role and your
role concerning your life, you will miss a lot of things that He has for you. This
year, however, is going to be your year of great and wonderful encounters with Jesus.
SO, who is the farmer and what seed is he
sowing?

Through God Enchantment, I write about the places where faith meets wonder and Scripture becomes alive in the everyday.
Each reflection is an invitation to move beyond duty into delight, beyond religion into relationship, and to see the nearness of Christ in ordinary life.
With love and wonder,
Yvonne

Oh my! I came across your page at the nick of time - God brought it to me I believe and I am amazed at the many similarities I share with you Yvonne. I have of late discovered that God delights in me seeking Him and that explains how He sometimes may feel like He is distant whereas He is not. I always look forward to your next posts and so far God reveals Himself through you.
May His name be glorified.
