QUESTION FOR REFLECTION
â–º Q7: What truth is God revealing to me in this passage?
Scripture Union Daily Guide 27th February 2025 OUTLINE
Notice that the same message, the seed of the word of God, is proclaimed to different hearers but their responses are very different depending on the situations they were in when they received the word. What comes into your mind as you seek to understand the parable? What does it mean to you personally when you come across the rebuke that some people hear but do not understand (Matthew 13:19), or have no root (Matthew 13:21), or are choked by the effects of worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth (Matthew 13:22)?
Jesus gives two specific characteristics of the good soil in Matthew 13:23. Are these characteristics of your life as a believer? The good soil is productive unlike the other three situations described in the parable.
It is only when the word of God effectively takes root in us that we will be able to face the pressures that we regularly encounter and become productive as Christians. As a steward of God’s word, have you been faithful to ensure that your heart is in the right state to receive God’s word and bear fruit for His kingdom?
What hindrances to fruitfulness do we need to avoid according to vs.18-23?
* Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?
Closing Prayer: Ask the Lord to help you to be productive in your witness as a Christian.
