Today on Meditating the Word: Parable of the Sower, Lamp on a Stand, Jesus Calms the Storm, Demon-Possessed Man Restored, Sick Woman Healed and Dead Girl Raised
This is Day 288. Today we are reading Mark 4-5
----
Father God, what stands out from the gospel of Mark is the word immediately! immediately Satan comes for the word, immediately they received the word with joy, immediately they stumble, immediately the farmer puts in the sickle to harvest, immediately the flow of blood was dried up, immediately Jesus knew power had gone out from him, immediately Jesus told Jairus not to be in fear, but to believe, and immediately the dead girl rose. We get a sense of urgency from Mark, of not delaying. You aren't making a decision to heal or to not heal, to prosper or to not prosper. You created the law of seed time and harvest. If we sow Your Word into our hearts, it will produce. We don't need to know how. Your seed is sure. If it is sown into good ground, it will produce. So we receive Your good seed immediately and with joy, and plant it in the good soil of our hearts, and we thank You in advance for an abundant harvest Amen
