Explanation of the seed that fell to the side: (See Feb 10
devo)
When anyone
hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil
one comes and snatches away what was sown in their
heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
What a powerful verse!
It’s not enough to just hear the Good News, we must understand it!
With our hearts!
This means we must lean away from our own understanding with
our minds, and lean into understanding with our hearts and trust Him.
If we hear the Good News and even make a confession of faith,
but we never understand the heart of Jesus and his love for us, we will be
easily discouraged, easily swayed, and easily turned away.
Seek to understand what it is you hear from his Word.
God gives us wisdom and understanding as we
search his Word, as it sinks deep into our souls, and becomes the reality by
which we live and breathe.
