Few lessons learnt from day 12 Mass Indoctrination held on 21-12-2021
A million thanks to God for yet another opportunity to hear the true doctrine of God. Below are some of the things a learnt with a short video.
As a Christian, we should be able to access ourselves to know where our heart belongs after hearing the word of God. If we are the hearer alone but not the doer of his word. That lead us to the parable of the sower which is an illustration of the four hears of men. And the seed is the word of God
Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Luke 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
Luke 8:13 They on the rock are they , which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Luke 8:14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
Luke 8:15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it , and bring forth fruit with patience.
The place called the way side refers to the heart of men while the birds is the devil that came with his tactics to take the word away
If you heart is by the way side like we av seen in the verse 12, the devil can have assess to come to our heart and take the words away easily after hearing it.
The verse 13 is talking about the rocky place which indicates the very strong heart of a man. That when the devil comes with a little temptations they forget about the words of God and his promises for us as a Christian.
The once that fell among thorns are those Christians that are carried away with the things of the world and what they intend to achieve. They don't pay attention to the word of God at all. They are just the hearer but not the doers.
Verse 15 is telling us about the good heart of man that hears the word, received it with gladness and faith.
So, as a Christian examine yourself to know the category you belong to and turn a new leave.
Do not give up or worry God can change you if you are ready to submit your heart to him.
Philippians 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Anyone who have the desires to do the work of God,and always listen to his word the person is a different person. So we should always have the urge of doing the work of God and listen to his words . Because it is God who gives us the desires to do all things.
Ephesians 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
So my fellow brethren,we really have the obligation to always sick the face of God. His not far from us when we draw near to him.
Even if our parents, spouse, siblings or relatives are trying to stop us from hearing the word of God or from sicking his face we should not give in. We should keep the fire burning.
The strength to carry on God will bestow it unto us
Praise be to God!
