Grounded with a Heart for God
The seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop. – L UK E 8 :1 5
A heart for God is nurtured by the Word of God. Just as the stomach receives good food so the body can grow, so a healthy heart receives nutritious morsels from a meal of Scripture. The spiritual development process begins with a heart hungry for God. Beware of Satan’s attempt to snatch away the seed from your pathway of faith and obedience. When you accept Christ by faith and obey His commands by grace, you hide the seed of God’s Word from the snare of the enemy. Cares of this world must not block you from learning the Bible and becoming a better follower of Christ. Worry can keep you from the Word of God—or the Word of God can keep you from worry. Therefore, it’s imperative that you quietly meditate on Scripture so the Spirit can clearly speak to your heart with reassuring words of hope, wisdom, and encouragement. Once you are rooted and grounded with a heart for God, your heavenly Father multiplies the fruit of your faith in other faithful lives.
