I. Understanding God’s System of Receiving

A. Understanding God’s System of Receiving

1. (Mark 4:26-29) Parable of the growing seed.

a. We scatter or sow the seed.

b. (1 Pet. 1:23 AMP) God’s Word is the incorruptible, infallible Seed – God’s sperm.

c. Time – “sleep and rise by night and by day”

d. The ground (earth) is our heart. Our born-again spirit contains all of the life of God. The word (seed) is the catalyst that generates the harvest.

2. Many believers try to receive by just praying without sowing the necessary seeds and are frustrated. God isn’t picking and choosing who He’s going to bless or heal.

a.(Ps. 107:20 NKJV)

b.(Prov. 23:7a NKJV; 27:19 NIV)

3. God had to use this same system to bring Jesus into the world. Why did God wait 4,000 years to send Jesus after man fell? (Gal. 4:4)

a.(Gen. 1:26) God gave man dominion over earth

~(Ps. 115:16) Earth is under man’s management.

b. (Luke 4:5-6) Adam forfeited his authority to Satan

~(2 Cor. 4:4 NLT) the god of this world

c. (Matt. 1:18-23) the Lord spoke through the prophets.

~(Gen. 3:14-15) God prophesied Jesus

~The OT contains over 300 prophesies about Jesus’ birth, life, death, burial and resurrection.

d. (Luke 1:26-38) Mary receives and conceives the Seed of God’s Word and gets pregnant supernaturally.

~(ref. Exo. 15:26, Deut. 7:15; 1 Pet. 2:24)

~Provision – (ref. 2 Cor. 8:9; Phil. 4:19; 3 John 1:2)

~Purpose – (Jer. 29:11 NIV; Prov. 19:21)
