TO THE BIBLE:
Mark 4:14-15
“The sower sows the word. And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.”

LET’S TALK
In the passages Matthew 13:1-23, Mark 4:1-20, and Luke 8:4–15, there’s a story Jesus illustrates and teaches spiritual lessons with; it’s called the parable of the sower. It’s a pretty intriguing story about seeds that were sown on different kinds of soil and what happened next.

Explaining the moral of the story, Jesus said the seeds that landed on the path symbolised people who hear the Word of God but can’t quite grasp it. That’s when Satan swoops in, snatching the Word away from their hearts (Mark 4:14–15). Basically, Satan’s on the lookout for the Word.

Whenever the Word of God comes your way, Satan tags along. Recall that the first time the Word of God came to Jesus openly, Satan came also. In Matthew 3:17, God said from heaven, “…This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Immediately, Satan also came and tempted Jesus, saying, “…If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread” (Matthew 4:3). He challenged the Word that came to Jesus. However, the Lord responded with the Word, saying, “…It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4). Jesus hit him back with Scripture!

When the Word comes to you about the glory or power of God for your life and future, receive it with your spirit, and through meditation, drive it deep into your heart. Refuse to allow Satan to steal or take the Word away from you: he will try to throw his darts at you like missiles but do exactly what Jesus did: respond with the Word! The Word of God in your mouth is the sword of the Spirit that cuts the adversary in pieces, discomfits his agenda, and shatters his strategies. Hallelujah!

GO DEEPER
Mark 11:23; Ephesians 6:16-17; Joshua 1:8

PRAY
Dear Father, by your Spirit, I have an accurate understanding of the Word and apply it rightly to produce results in my life, family, ministry and all that concerns me. I hear and receive the Word into my heart with faith, meekness and gladness for it to take root in me and produce the fruits of what it talks about, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
