Understanding the Word/Seed

Speak vietnamese: God speaks in a language that is closer to home

God speaks to each one of us in our own language

Must understand in order to bear fruit

A weapon misunderstood is robed from the receiver

English Standard Version Chapter 13

When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart.

There is not neutral. Either for God or against

Sew in YOUR HEART (iron man)

Understanding who you are

“Take off the armor and what do you have?”

So deathly afraid of being without our armor

The thorns choke the good seed

IM chooses his pride and vanity over Pepper Pots

Ego

CONFLICT IN OUR LIVES

Take off the armor and what do you have?
