Fertilized By God.
Luke 6:43-45
We are walking in today: Fertilized By God.
Luke 6:43-45 43) For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 44) For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45) A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. Do we bear good fruit? Do we have a store of goodness in our hearts? Or a store of evil? I think it all depends on our own roots. In what we are rooted in. A tree rooted in a good and fertile soil that receives sunshine and a decent amount of rain, will bear good fruit. It is no wonder that scriptures often talk about soil and trees in comparison to the human heart. The analogy has endless wisdom in it. Our hearts are the trees, we are called to root them in God. It is, He after all that has the best and most fertile soil. We receive endless Son-shine from Him! When I say Son-shine I mean the light of Jesus! He longs to shower us with His mercy. That we may produce much fruit. But what happens when our hearts aren't rooted in Him?! What happens when we take our roots out of His rich soil and place them deep somewhere else--like sin? We suffer and we don't grow. We don't bear as much or any good fruit. Our roots become withered and as we search, we search in vain. Our spiritual life, we gotta think about this--always rooted in God! Using the right fertilizer, our spiritual life is a little like flowers. It needs tending to, and constant feeding, watering and fertilizing. We feed our spiritual life by going to church and listening to the word of God and being taught. We water our spirit by reading the word of God. Go on an get deep into it and wait on the Holy Spirit to enlighten you to the meaning of each passage that you read. We are fertilized by the word we have taken in by constantly keeping up with our reading and listening to the Holy Spirit. Daily reading and studying, will give you the fertilizer, that you need, in order to have that word ready when you need it. Because there will be trials and problems in your life. Just like that flower, if the correct balance of nutrients isn't given to your spirit, then you will not grow and blossom into the Christian that God intended you to become. Ask God to keep you planted in the word--daily to overcome and get the right balance of nutrients for our spirit. God warns us again and again to produce fruit and keep with repentance (Matthew 3:8, Luke 3:8). To produce fruit means, that the fruit of the Holy Spirit, is to be a natural outflow of the eternal God--moving things through you, by His Spirit. So to produce fruit in keeping with repentance--means to be soul facing God. That your life displays your fervent love for Him! For who He is, moving out of the gratitude and love to obedience to Him! The seed is the word of God. Those along the path who hear, then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so they may not believe and be saved. To those on the rock, are the ones that receive the word with joy then they hear it, but they don't have no root. They believe for a while but in the time of testing, fall away. The seed that fell amongst the thorns stands for those who hear the word of God, but as they go along, the word is choked by the ways of the world--lies, chasing riches and pleasures--they don't get to mature. But the seed that fell on good ground, stands for those that have a noble and good heart who hear the word of God and retain it. And by persevering, produces a good crop (Luke 8:11-15).
I am talking about we are fertilized by God! Those scriptures, you will have to look up for yourself. Some times we gotta get in the word and see what God wants to share with us! He has planted us in fertilized soil. We are like a tree planted by the river. God gave us the seed this week! Look to Him, He gives the increase of the seed. So fiveamprayer, is the seed in you?! He has given us the seed of the promise this week--this is no regular seed, this seed represents Christ! God has already prepared a way for us! He is more than able! No matter what comes against us, He will never leave us nor forsake us! Praise Him for the fertilizer in our marriages, children and finances. The more you read His word, you will see His word giving you the necessary nutrients. We have got to know to get in His word, seeking Him and to retain it. Some times we get worried and weak but God sent us something to strengthen us! God is pruning and purging us--Jesus is the true vine and God is the husbandman. We shall come forth as pure gold. Can't no one get the glory but God! He planted us in fertilized soil. He planted us from Genesis to Revelation. Look to David who danced in the Psalms. Look to the book of Deuteronomy where we see how God kept the children of Israel in the wilderness. His word shall not come back void, it shall do all that He sent it out to do. That soil that you draw from everyday, that is causing something to stir on the inside. It is springing forth, shall you not know it?! It is nobody but God! He said this is the year that we will see. Look to He who is well able to do more than we can ask or think! We are to pray without ceasing, to pray and not faint. We shall reap the harvest if we faint not! No weapon formed against us shall prosper, we are planted by and in the Lord! You have a promise that is a seed! Fiveamprayer, be rooted in His word! He knew us while we were yet in our mother's wombs. His ways are not our ways nor His thoughts like our thoughts. Thank You God! As high as the heavens are high we shall be like a tree planted by the river--we shall not be moved! Look at yourself, fertilized by God! We can't lose with the stuff that He uses! No man gets the credit, give God all of the glory! Give Him glory for this seedtime and harvest! He sent His Son to shine on us, how can we not grow?! Look to God, He gives the increase to the seed! Seek and we shall find! The harvest is plenty but the labors are few, stand up and believe Him. Know it is God's hand--in your situation. Are you on post? Are you watching and praying? This spiritual warfare, the devil is trying to disguise your season and take you out. Are you really fighting like never before?! Are you putting on the whole armor of God? No devil in hell can stop us! Give God glory and praise! Thank You for the fertilizer! For sending Your word, the word that stands forever! He will bring you through and out! It was Him all of the time! In every test, trial and tribulation, stand and hold on to the word! The Lord is our Shepherd, we shall not want! He places a table before us in the presence of our enemies! Fiveamprayer, we are fertilized by God! That is why there are so many attacks coming at you right now! We must stand together on His word, in unity there is commanded blessings! Fiveamprayer will not stop praying and seeking Him! With attacks in our marriages and finances--our response is, with God for us who can stand against us?! We are fertilized by God! We are on the Lord's side! Recognize who you are and who's you are! Fertilized by God! He can speak a word, right into your situation! Get into the Bible to strengthen you. Hold on to His word! We can't give up now! This is the last days--you have gotta know that! Have you soul anchored in the Lord, gripping on the solid rock of Christ. Thank You Lord for giving a word that we can stand on from Genesis to Revelation! For filling us till we want no more! The devil wants to disguise our season, we shall reap the harvest if we faint not! Keep standing on His promises, it is seed time! God gives seed to the sower! Thank You for fertilizing us, God! Think about the seed going in the ground--then dirt placed over to cover the seed. When I talk about the seed, I am talking about Christ going into the ground and they covered Him up. He was placed in a tomb and a stone rolled over the entrance, so that He could not get away. When the seed went into the ground, there was some fertilizer, there--He got up on the third day! Jesus went to hell to take back the keys of the kingdom and to lead captivity, captive! We live because He died, becoming a seed and springing forth righteousness three days later! Thank You Lord! Hallelujah! Can't nobody preserve you like God! Lazarus was preserved by God. When Jesus called his name, he had to get up. Every step you take, has been fertilized by God! Come forth, fiveamprayer! Walk out of this thing together and cross over into this Jordan. Walk it out, don't just talk this word, live it! We are fertilized by God! Through Christ we can do all things! We are more than conquers and overcomers! Greater is He that is within me, than he that is within this world! He told Lazarus to get up and come forth! You have been fertilized by God! No condemnation because we have asked for forgiveness and turned from our wicked ways. Come up a little higher! Spread His word, He put seed on the inside of you! Get up and go over to the other side. Brothers and sisters , cross over that Jordan together! Fertilized by God! Still I rise! Can't no devil in hell hold me down! Thought he had buried us with all has gone on--the devil is defeated! What the devil meant for our harm, God turned it for our good! There was purpose for it all--the struggles with our children, difficulties in our marriages, trying times in our finances. Know the truth and it shall make you free! We are fertilized by God! We are sustained by Jesus! God is covering us, like never before! Lord we come to life up fiveamprayer, this morning, God bless them for what ever they stand in the need of. He said He will keep us in perfect peace with our minds stayed on Him! The peace in the middle of a storm, kind of peace. Thank You God! You know what comes after fertilizing? The latter rain. We come to repent, Lord for all of the wrong we have done and even thought! Thank You Lord for forgiving with no condemnation, casting our sins into the sea that they be remembered no more! Thank You for demonstrating for us how we are to forgive others--that we too can be forgiven!
We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit: Thank You for the fertilizer, Lord!
Welcome to the overflow...When we were getting weak, the fertilizer will anchor our souls. Trust and believe that who the Son sets free, is truly free indeed! He came that we would have life and that more abundantly! Fiveamprayer, we are to know, that we know, that we know, that He has already made a way out for us! That He has this all working out for our good! Thank You Lord! Take time out today to read the scriptures for yourself! Visit us on facebook, it will encourage you. Have a blessed weekend--take some time to rest in the Father, He has fertilized you! Amen!
