John 6:63 (NKJ) says, "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.”
The Word of God is alive. The Word contains life. The words in your Bible may look lifeless and powerless just like seeds do, but the Word is NOT without life or power.
In Mark 4:30-31, Jesus explained that the kingdom of God works like a seed. So, if we are to understand God's kingdom and how He operates, we need to understand how seeds work.
You plant a seed in the ground and it looks like nothing is happening. It takes some time, but eventually it will pop up through the ground.
So, if you take a scripture, meditate on it and believe that it has power and life in it, then that scripture will be planted in your heart and begin to grow.
Be patient and take to know the Word. It will change your life!
