READ: Matthew 13:3-9
3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

MESSAGE
The parable of the sower tells a story with interesting characters. A man went out to sow some seeds; some fell on the pathway, some among thorns, some on the rock, and others made it to the good soil. The man represents God and the seed is the gospel. The rock, thorns and birds that altered the growth of the seeds represent the cares of life, distractions that choke up the word of God and the devil who pecks on the word of God in people’s hearts to make them lose faith in it.
Many are chasing frivolities and the vanities of life at the expense of their faith in God which should be nurtured by the word of God. This story shows that once the seed of the word of God is sown, only time will show how a fellow’s faith will grow and develop. Is your heart properly positioned for the word of God to be sown and grow in it? Beloved, be attentive to every spoken or written word of God and ask for the grace to obey them.

HYMN 7 – JUST AS I AM, WITHOUT ONE PLEA
- Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me
And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come. - Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot
To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come. - Just as I am though tossed about,
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fighting’s and fears within, without,
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come. - Just as I am poor, wretched, blind,
Sight, riches, healing of the mind
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come. - Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because Thy promise I believe
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come. - Just as I am Thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be Thine, yea Thine alone,
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come. - Just as I am, of that free love
The breadth, length, depth and
height to prove,
Here for a season, then above,
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come.
