Is Your Soil Ready? | The Parable of the Sower

Welcome to episode 10 of GSP!! I am so excited for this episode which delves into a parable that Jesus told along the Sea of Galilee. The word of God should always deepen and grow within us just as a planted seed grows through good soil. I pray that this episode calls you to observe your soil and ask God to reveal the rocks and thorns in your life. May God bless you all and help you to remove everything in your soil that might prevent his seed from growing.Thank you for listening in! ❤️Verses Mentioned:Luke 8:4-8-“And when a great crowd was gathering and people from town after town came to him, he said in a parable, “A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell along the path and was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the air devoured it. And some fell on the rock, and as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it. And some fell into good soil and grew and yielded a hundredfold.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”   Matthew 13:3-9-“A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away. Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.  He who has ears, let him hear.”Matt 13:4 - “And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them...When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path.”Luke 8:6- And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away.”Matt. 13:7- “Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them...As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.”Luke 8:7-  “And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it...And as for what fell among the thorns, they are those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature.”Matt 13:8- “Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty... As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”  Luke 8:8- "And some fell into good soil and grew and yielded a hundredfold.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear...As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience.” ___________________________________________Let's get social!Instagram & TikTok: @ graciouslysavedpodcastThe Host:Sarah KastnerInstagram: @ sarah.sabrina.kTikTok: @ sarahskastnerSupport the show
