The word is sown in our hearts but the enemy wants to come in and take it by offenses in our lives and when we yield to the flesh and our mind.  I learned from this teaching the ways the enemy wants to come in and steal what God is doing in our lives. I saw why Jesus said the enemy comes to seek and destroy but He has come to give us life and life more abundantly.  I also saw how unforgiveness can hinder us from receiving the word of the lord and stunts our growth in Christ. That’s why Jesus told us to forgive so we won’t be affected by unforgiveness.  I’m going to guard my heart and make sure no offense comes in and I have forgiven everyone who has hurt me . So then Jesus is telling us that those who will reap are those who have no unforgiveness or the cares of the world affecting them. If we don’t get affected we can reap 30 60 or 100 fold to the degree we surrender.  From this I see that I need to surrender to the Lord in more areas and give some extra things up for the Lord.  Because of this, my life is already radically changed; thank you Jesus.  I’ve learned about renewing the way I’ve been thinking so I don’t yield to the devil and his plans for my life. I don’t want to be like a dog that returns to its vomit.
