DEVELOP THE 'YES LORD' ATTITUDE

LIGHT FOR THE WAY

(Daily Devotional)

Sunday 29th December 2019

TOPIC: DEVELOP THE 'YES LORD ' ATTITUDE

TEXT: "And the seeds that fell on the good soil represent honest, good-hearted people who hear God’s word, cling to it, and patiently produce a huge harvest."

(Luke 8:15 NLT)

God speaks to people who decide they’re going to do what he tells them to do, even before he tells them. It’s saying, “God, if you want me to move, I’ll move. If you want me to get married, I’ll get married. If you want me to leave this job, I’ll leave this job. Before you even tell me, my answer is ‘yes.’ Whatever you want me to do, I will do it.”

Luke 8:15 says, “The seeds that fell in good soil stand for those who hear the message and retain it in a good and obedient heart, and they persist until they bear fruit” (TEV).

I used to study this parable of Jesus and think it was talking about four kinds of people: those who are resistant, those who are shallow, those who are busy, and those who are good. 

But this parable actually represents four attitudes. You can have all four attitudes in the same day! One moment you go, “God, I don’t want to hear you, because I know what you’re going to say.” And the next moment you say, “Lord, tell me quick.” Then you hear it and think it’s good, but you don’t do anything about it. Maybe the fruit starts to bear in your life, but then you get busy with your job or school or your kids, and the weeds grow up. Then other times you say, “God, whatever you want. I’m totally open to you.”

God wants you to have an attitude of obedience so that you can bear fruit — the biblical term for being successful. God wants you to be fruitful in your business, your family, your friendships, your relationship with God and with others, and your health.

So how do you bear fruit when God tells you something? You pass it on. When God tells you something, the quickest way to let it bear fruit in your life is to tell somebody else what you just learned. 

Another translation of Luke 8:15 says, “They listen to God’s words and cling to them and steadily spread them to others who also soon believe” (LB). God wants you believe what He tells you and   pass on to others what you learn. This attitude towards God positions you to receive more from Him.

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY 

I see a book opened in heaven and The Sovereign LORD says “I am bringing into remembrance those things you have asked but has not been able to receive; like the former and the latter rain can be caused to fall in one month, so have I opened the heavens over you and shall cause the release of the answers to those things for which you’ve long requested. The former and the latter are been released for you in this season…
