"Those who hear God's Word, receiving and obeying it by faith, will lead fruitful lives that give glory to God. "Therefore consider carefully how you listen" Luke 8:18a
"Therefore consider carefully how you listen" really stood out to me as I was reading this passage.. In Luke 8, Jesus shares the parable about the sower and the seed... the seed is His Word and how it falls on different grounds (path, rock, thorns, good soil). The ground that truly bears fruit is the good soil, which represents those who have a tender and teachable heart. They listen to God's message attentively, translates it, and applies it internally.
If we listen and obey God's word, He promises that He will make us fruitful and give us a harvest of 100 times more than what was sown.
Lord, help us to be attentive listeners... to receive and to obey your Word daily...
