Understanding the Kingdom

“When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.” 
Matthew 13:19(KJV)

Our opening scripture shows us the importance of understanding the Word of the kingdom. This is because if you do not understand the Word of the kingdom when you hear it, you will lose it because satan will steal it from your heart.

In emphasizing the importance of understanding which we are going to look at for the next few days, Jesus said in Matthew 13:23, “But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.” This reveals to you the principle that the Word of God will bear fruit in your life to the measure that you understand it.

Therefore without understanding, the Word of God that you hear will not benefit you. So if you do not understand the kingdom, you cannot be triumphant and prevail against the gates of hell. This is why I encourage you to give attention to the Word in season coming to you in this month so that your faith can be built up. According to 1 John 5:4 the Bible lets us know that the victory that overcomes the world is our faith. So build your faith on the Word of the kingdom and you will be an over comer in all realms of life.

PRAYER
Dear Father I ask that you give unto me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you. May the eyes of my understanding be enlightened to know the hope of your calling, and the riches of the glorious inheritance in the saints in Jesus Name. Amen.
