[Sunday note] 28th October
How do we prepare the growth of God's kingdom?
Main text: Matthew 13:3-9
1. To listen with the right attitude to God's words. Luke 8:11-12
Quality is more important than quantity.
"Let God's word sink into you."
2. You have to prioritize. Matthew 13:22
There are lots of important things in our life, but sometimes you have to choose to cut out 'important' things to have time for the most important thing. Allow yourself to have one hour quality time with God everyday. You need to give priority to Him.
Luke 10:41-42, Hebrews 10:25
Money and wealth can be a "God" to make you leave the true God. Don't let them control you but use them so they become a blessing instead.
1 Tim 6:10, 1 Tim 6:16, 1 Tim 6:18-19, Luke 16:9
3. Keep on standing firm. Matthew 13:20-21
Don't give up! Tell God that we're not going to give up!
When hardships come, turn to God for help, don't leave him.
Luke 8:15, Heb 10:36
