250 Events In The Life Of Christ/ A Harmony Of The Gospels Part 147
Section 2: Message And Ministry Of Jesus
“Jesus Teaches About The Kingdom Of God”
18 Then Jesus asked, “What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I compare it to? 19 It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds perched in its branches.”
20 Again he asked, “What shall I compare the kingdom of God to? 21 It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds[a] of flour until it worked all through the dough.”
What do you think these mean? What does your heart say? There is a tiny piece of God in each and every one of us He put it there Himself and like a mustard seed which is the tiniest of the seeds in the field it grows so big that the birds of the air perch in it. Same with the yeast a small amount of yeast can make the dough grow to enormous size. He is telling us it takes time and work for us to reach the knowledge of the Kingdom of God. It is a growth process and once we reach the point of understanding and accepting Christ the journey begins the seed is planted and now must grow. The yeast is mixed into the dough and now will rise and expand. This is the way of the Kingdom of God it is ever expanding and growing and one day it will reach its peak and God will say “It is done” and on that day those of us who have followed and understand and share and reach for Him through His Son will be able to enter His great Kingdom. PRaP these things in your heart and allow God to show you His great way and His great plan that when the day comes you will be prepared.
Peace and Agape Love,
