SEED BY THE WAY SIDE

Matthew 13:4
And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

Matthew 13:19
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.

Many have heard the word of God one way or the other, yet have not received the power thereof, thus they have heard yet they are still lost. Jesus called them the people of the "way side".

These category of people are like bus-stops and Nigerian newspaper vendor stands.

Discussions can happen there, people come and go, various new things could be discussed, yet nothing really dwells there.

Jesus said because they are of the way side, the enemy steals the word of God dropped in them, because really it never goes inside. . . to die. Selah!

Matthew 13:4
And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

No soil at all, thus no root, the remain empty. What a tragedy.

If you are an evangelist, you could meet many like this, prayers in intercession can save souls like this.

Let us remember that our state of mind cannot change God's statement of fact. We must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ.

John 12:48
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

May we never be known as of the "way side", instead may we be intercessors for those lost by the way side.

You are blessed.

Love
