We are walking in today:  God Plants His Best Seed, In The Worst Soil.

Luke 13:6-9 (AMP) 6) And He told them this parable: A certain man had a fig tree, planted in his vineyard, and he came looking for fruit on it, but did not find [any]. 7) So he said to the vinedresser, See here! For these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree and I find none. Cut it down! Why should it continue also to use up the ground [to deplete the soil, intercept the sun, and take up room]? 8) But he replied to him, Leave it alone, sir, [just] this one more year, till I dig around it and put manure [on the soil]. 9) Then perhaps it will bear fruit after this; but if not, you can cut it down and out.  Little by little, you begin to realize that it is a miracle that you are here.  God has a purpose for your life, for some things have not yet been fulfilled. That is why you are still here.  Some of you have survived adverse situations--physically you should not be here, mentally you should not be here and emotionally you should not be here.  Anybody who has been through what you have been through should have had a nervous breakdown. They should be sitting on the floor eating cotton.  They should have lost their minds--absolutely insane.  But God--is how you survived!  That is the way that you were able to pull out of it.  Some of us know that we could not make it out by ourselves.  But with God we pulled out of that thing!  Hallelujah!  Praise His name!  So we were able to survive dialysis, car wrecks, cancers, tumors and all kinds of adversities.  Some people would look at you like you are all that, but you are just glad to be here!  Because it is all by God's grace!  Jesus spake to us in parables.  They are extremely profound!  Which we can extract many different things!  It will speak to a certain situation when you read it then another time it will speak to something else.  You can read the same parable many times and find something you did not see the last time.  Jesus uses it as a teaching tool, the text this morning is regarding the fig tree.  Parables, reveal so much and you can find different meanings by reading it day after day.  On the first day, you look at the younger son, the next day the older son, the following day you look at the father.  Then on the day after that you are looking at the sacrifice that was prepared, for the celebration of the return of the younger son.  Then on another day you are looking at the coat and see the father's preparation for our sins.  Then the next day you look at the ring, God puts a seal of the Holy Spirit on the sonship.  The day after that, you look at the swine in the pig pen and see the fellowship we have with iniquity, but God who is rich in mercy calls us while we were fellowshiping with the swine.  That God will excommunicate us from our past, and deliver us into our rightful destiny, in liberty with Him!  This is the parable of the prodigal son. The power of parables is so profound that every time we look at it we see something we have never seen before. Go deeper, God told us earlier this month.  In doing so you will see more of what God wants to reveal to us!  Fiveamprayer, are we seeking more of Him?  Looking to see more of Him in your life?!  Seeking more and more into His word?  The parable of the fig tree--a certain man, this man could be any man.  He leaves the understanding up to us.  Let's talk about the tree being planted.  This is not a wild tree or branch. This is not something that just came into existence through happenstance or accident.  This is perfectly planned  with purpose!  Nor is this a birthing of a tree from the seed of a fig that fell from another tree and begin growing on it's own.  No this tree was planted in a specific place at a specific time by a much stronger vessel than itself--because you can not plant yourself.  So that it would grow at a particular place and at a particular direction, in a particular time, to produce a particular fruit.  The tree was planted!  We must understand that regardless of the circumstances, you are planted at a specific place, a specific time, with a specific gifting for a divine purpose.  To be planted  is to be put in a spot.  The spot is not by your choosing.  God will put you in a spot that you disagree with.  A spot would make you want to chose a different spot for yourself.  God has planted you and picked you out.  He just didn't let you exist, He thought you into existence!  David said in, Psalm 8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?  Which means, fiveamprayer, that we are on God's mind, all of the time!  Some times God has a way of planting His best seed in the worst soil.  It seems to me that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.  You might not see it now--but if you look back over your life, you will say that it was good for me that I was afflicted.  Or that it was good for me that so-and-so did not raise me.  It was good for me that they left me.  He meant for me to be like this!  He planted me, created me Christ-like.  Tell somebody today, I have been planted by God!  The place that I am in--even in the struggle I've been planted by God.  God plants His best seed in the worst ground. 
I am talking about the dark places, way down where nobody knows what you are going through.  God, plants His best in the worst place because that is what God does!  His strength is made perfect in our weakness!  When we are weak, He is strong!  Whatever your situation is, He planted you right there in that spot for His reason and purpose.  Get up this morning and say thank You for planting me here!  Where we are planted is making us better, wiser and stronger!  We are covered and kept by Him!  Sometimes we think that we would to better being placed some where else.  God makes us stronger by planting us in the worst soil.  You better tell yourself, that you have been planted by God!  Planted by the Almighty for a divine purpose!  This is your time.  This is your season.  We have been planted for such a time a this!  We are planted and picked for the spots that we are in.  Hold on to His unchanging hand!  It is almost harvest time!  Fiveamprayer, hold on!  There are so many that are asking why God did you plant me here?!  Hold on He is teaching you His ways.  Tell God, not my will, but Your will be done!  We are planted in that marriage, on that job, in that church and it is all for His glory!  God takes His best seed and plants it in the worst soil.  Look back over your life and say that it was good for me to be afflicted.  That God works all things together for the good of them that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose!  Stop trying  to move and get out of position.  Trust God!  Hold on to what He told you!  Wait on Him!  Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.  God saves the best for last!  He told us in, Job 8:7 Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.  Thank You God!  With all that you have been through, it has all been for your good.  God places His best seed in the worst soil.  With the hell that you have with your children and difficulties with your health--you keep on praying, not giving up.  You kept pressing on and pressing in--like the woman with the issue of blood, who pressed her way to Jesus for her healing.  Like the seed that has to go into the ground and be covered to grow and prosper.  We too have become the seed of Abraham by faith and are covered in the blood of Jesus that we can grow and prosper, as our souls prosper!  3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.  That seed that is in the dirt, that it comes up and blossoms, you don't want your seed to come up too soon.  He gave His best seed and planted it in the worst soil!  John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  God took His best seed, His only Begotten Son, who dwelt among us, was crucified and rose again three days later with all power in His hands!  God sent us His best seed--Jesus Christ.  How can we not want to go through anything?  They beat and whipped Him and then crucified Him!  God took His best seed and placed it in the worst soil.  The worst soil were the ones who should have received God's best seed--but mistreated, disregarded and quarreled with Him instead.  That we will trust in Him and say though He slay me yet will we trust Him!  We are the best seed planted in the worst soil.  With all hell breaking loose, hold on!  He purposed you for this time, this season.  It is all a set up by God.  He knew you from before you were in your mother's womb.  He knows the plans that He has for you, thoughts of good not of evil to give you an expected end!  In all of those broken hearted places, the best seed sowed into the the worse soil.  Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers us out of them all.  Psalms 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.  When we are weak, God makes us strong!  Keep Holding on, be like the tree in Psalm 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.  Fiveamprayer keep drinking in that living water--His word!  Hold on to your peace!  God is fighting this battle, the battle is not yours it is the Lord's!  His best seed will say, throw me into the fire, my God will save me!  Fiveamprayer, let nothing separate you from God's love!  That is what My best seed would say.  The best seed that has been planted in the worst soil.  He has made us more than conquers!  We know that greater is He that is within me, than he that is in this world.  We have been planted for more!  We can stand on no weapon formed against us shall prosper!  We know that weeping may endure for the night by joy comes in the morning.  Hallelujah God!  It was good for me to be afflicted!  I see it now God!  Hallelujah!  Thank You for every mountain for every trial that You have brought me over and see me through!  I won't complain.  The best seed in the worst soil.   With others against us,  just stand on His word.  Thank You God!  Don't give up now!  Do not be weary in well doing!  You will reap the harvest if you faint not!  It is almost harvest time.  The best seed planted in the worse soil.  With all that we have gone through--through hell and high water, we are planted by God in the worst soil.  Also take note that the vine dresser is taking special care of the tree that it may produce, finally.  Giving it more attention than it was getting before.  The tree is getting extra nutrients from the fertilizer that is being given to it.  So is that how it looks to be build up while weak?  That is why His strength is made perfect in our weakness, where we can not do anything of ourselves.  That with this special care we are able to remain in that planted spot to give Him glory!  Fiveamprayer, your fruit will be evident, very soon.  All that we have gone though, makes us the person that we are today.  Who the Son sets free is free indeed!  Don't let the enemy tell you those lies that it matters where you were born or what gender you are or what you have been through or have had or didn't--none of that is a disqualifier!  It is Christ's shed blood for us that qualifies us, it is He that paid our sin debt and cleaned up our spiritual credit that we can stand, no longer without but within the home of the Master!  God has planted us in that spot for His purpose!  An unfamiliar, uncomfortable spot and in this spot you will grow in this season!  You are gonna get it, in this season!  You are in this spot to put your eyes on God and off of everything else.  God plants His best seed in the worst soil.  No more asking God why?  Why are you at this job?  Why am I in this position?  Why.  Why. Why.  Stop asking Him why.  What a mighty God we serve!  It was all for my good!  With what you have been through, you can now help others, by sharing your testimony.  That you can say, late in the midnight hour God turned it around!  That you have learned to pray without ceasing!  That God so loved the world, that He gave His best seed!  Stay in the place that you are in right now, don't move!  We lift up fiveamprayer, many of us feel like a ship being tossed by an angry sea.  God will make a way!  We lift up prayer requests those known and unknown, trust Him.  He has planted us!  He is a rewarder to them that diligently seek Him!  That is why we can have no fear!  His perfect love casts out fear! We come to repent--we didn't want to be in the place that You put us in.  There is a plan and a purpose for our lives.  This is a divine set up.  Forgive us for looking for another way out.  Lord forgive us for sins known and unknown.  Lord have us to forgive one another, that we are also forgiven.  Some of us are in this spot because of unforgiveness--let it go.  Thank You Lord for casting our sins away, that they be remembered no more. 

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:   Thank You for planting me God in the worst soil!

Welcome to the overflow...
 Sometimes it is because of disobedience, why we are planted in that spot.  Obedience is better than sacrifice.  Thank You God!  Thank You Lord!  What a mighty God we serve, to give us a word like this on a Monday morning!  That He would speak to us in parable, that each time we read it we see something new.  That the younger son took his inheritance and wasted it and while in the pig pen comes to himself and returns home to an expecting father who kills the fatted calf in celebration of his safe return.  In the parable of the fig tree, the best seed was planted in the worse soil.  When you think about somethings, you should shout hallelujah anyhow!  Thank You God!  Thank You Holy Ghost!  I once was blind but now I see!  Visit us on facebook it will encourage you.  Be sure to registrar for the conference and submit the conference fee of $75.00, the dates of the conference are September 21-23 at Absolute Word Church, you don't want to miss it!  For more info to to the blog, have a blessed day!
