You can see that there are many people who hear the word of God, but it falls in the middle of the road, among rocks, thorns, and evil takes advantage of it to prevent that person to reach the personal, professional, family, finally the realization of their dreams. The seed (word of God) can only bear fruit if listened and practiced. Let’s see: “Behold, the slower went out to sow”

By the road side “and as he sowed, some fell by the wayside, and the birds come to eat.” Mt 13.4 why did it fell by the wayside? Many are those who are by the wayside! He who doesn’t submit to His Word. The truth is only one, or you’re on the way or not, if you are by the wayside you will never see the promises of God being fulfilled in your life, because it is set – the seed that falls to the wayside never germinate and therefore never bear fruit.
Set up, or you are in the path, or not, or you are, or you are not! Staying on the side of the road is a waste of time. Nothing will happen in your life.

Among stones “Some fell on stony ground, where land was scarce, and soon was born, since it is not the deep in the earth. Leaving, however, the sun, burned, and because it had no root, it withered away. “Mt 13.6 This is a person who is in church, but have a hardened heart – rock. It hears the word, but the emotion, with feeling, with joy, is happy on the outside but inside is saying, “Why do I need to do so? Why can I not do so? … Ah! But I do not think so; I think it’s not like that! “They are vulnerable, they are offended easily, surrender and give up very easy.
You cannot have an emotive faith, faith is rational. We must never be planted in the roots of sentimentality, but rooted in the intelligent faith.

Thorns “And some fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked. Mt 13.7 those who are concerned with the care of this world, with the outer aspects. This is not the problem; the problem is when it becomes a thorn in the flesh. Today’s society tries to manipulate the way we dress talk, live, it is necessary that we act according to God’s word, not the word of others. They have people who lose the blessings of God because they are fascinated by wealth, you may want to be rich, but cannot be fascinated by wealth.
Your fascination has and should be in God, so that He will give you much beyond what you ask or want.

Another on good land, at last, fell on good soil and brought forth fruit a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. Mt 13.8. This are those who hear the word of God and practice. For there is a big difference between tithing and be thinned out, be baptized and born again, to make a religious prayer and make a cry of surrender. Because, first you have to be and then do. The big difference between the other seed is that the soil is good, the person already has a land waiting for the word, so everything is easy but for germination.
Those who worry about being to God and then do.

What kind of seed are you?
