Matthew Chapter 13 and the New Thing

Do you not love this chapter of Matthew? I do. When I pray there are many things I pray about, but one I pray about often. I would hear the voice of our Abba and I would not be deceived and fall away. That is prophesied in II Thessalonians 2: 1-4. The time is coming for the great falling away and we need to press in even more than ever before in our life. We need to know our Kingdom assignment because people need what you have.

As an aside, my friend keeps telling me people need what God is showing me, because I truly believe it is for you too. God is not a respecter of persons. As I write I am thinking, “LORD, this is how I did this before. I did a chapter by chapter look at the Word. I will do it again…” Oh my, notice I said what I did before. Isaiah 43 tell me to forget the former things. Isaiah 43:16-21 MSG tells us;

“This is what God says,
    the God who builds a road right through the ocean,
    who carves a path through pounding waves,
The God who summons horses and chariots and armies—
    they lie down and then can’t get up;
    they’re snuffed out like so many candles:
“Forget about what’s happened;
    don’t keep going over old history.
Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new.
    It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it?
There it is! I’m making a road through the desert,
    rivers in the badlands.
Wild animals will say ‘Thank you!’
    —the coyotes and the buzzards—
Because I provided water in the desert,
    rivers through the sunbaked earth,
Drinking water for the people I chose,
    the people I made especially for myself,
    a people custom-made to praise me.”

Looking back to the former things is not where it is at. Maybe that is why I feel like it is pulling weeds to write.

I am going to touch on Matthew 13 that lines up with what I am feeling in the Spirit. The good soil is where we need to be. It is the good soil, Friends. Pressing in to the LORD right now is paramount to what He wants to do in our lives. Right. This. Very. Second. we need to press in. His Word is important. Worshiping Him is important. The quiet place is important. We create the soil by Fixing our eyes on Jesus the Author and Perfector of our faith. You cannot see me right now but I am clapping. I am excited to see what God is doing right this minute. God is up to something, right here and right now.

I love y’all. I know you think she doesn’t know me and for most that is true, but I love you in the love of Christ.
