Meditate On
Jesus also said, “The Kingdom of God is
like a farmer who scatters seed on the ground. Night and day, while he’s asleep
or awake, the seed sprouts and grows, but he does not understand how it
happens. The earth produces the crops on its own. First a leaf blade pushes
through, then the heads of wheat are formed, and finally the grain ripens.
Mark 4:26–28, NLT
Toward
The Hundredfold
First the blade, then the head, and then
the full grain in the head of wheat.
Just as a seed takes time to sprout and
grow, it may take some time before the healing you are trusting God for
manifests fully. And just as a new farmer may see a thirty or sixtyfold yield
before he sees a hundredfold yield, it may take some time before you experience
100 percent wholeness.
My friend, don’t say, “Why is my healing
taking so long?” and give up. Press on toward the hundredfold. As you get 30
percent better, trust God for the 60 percent, and then the 100 percent.
Know
that God is a God of His Word, and His Word proclaims that you have been healed
by Jesus’ stripes (2 Peter 2:24)!
