In Matthew, chapter 13, verses 4 through 9, Jesus says,
“And as he sowed, someseed fell by the wayside;
and the birds came and devoured them.
Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth;
and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth.
But when the sun was up they were scorched,
and because they had no root they withered away.
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up
and choked them.
But others fell on good ground and yielded a crop;
some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
There is life inside the Word. There is salvation inside the Word. Every time the Word gets sown, it’s like a seed falling to the ground. But what we got to establish here, is even though there’s all this power, all this life, inherent and intrinsic in the Word of God, you and I have to face a pretty cold, hard reality here. Three out of four times the Word got sown, and it did NOT produce.
It is such a joy to find people who the Word of God is working and producing in their life. But at the same time, we find people who are saying, “You know what? I think I’m doing this right and it’s not working.” And as a minister of the Gospel, I am not content just to look at somebody and say, “Well, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t.” That’s ridiculous. I’m not going to do that. That’s cheap and that’s a copout.
I’m not satisfied just to stand up and preach what the Word of God says about healing. I’ll do that until the day I die, but for me it doesn’t end there.
It ends when the Word on healing gets preached and sown into somebody’s life and then they receive it and it produces a harvest of healing in their life.
