Intro
My wife giving birth to Jacob-----
We had longed for a baby after losing Jaina 2008
We didn’t have Jacob until 2011.
The news of pregnancy comes with a lot of joy and excitement.
Towards the end it becomes uncomfortable.
I was super excited while she was in pain of child birth.
The end product is beautiful to behold.
After losing Jaina, and a couple of miscarriages we finally had our son.
That is why I gave him the name Jacob Samuel Rodriguez
Samuel was given to Hannah in anguish and prayer.
The name means “God has heard”.
Not to mention he was a pretty cool prophet.
Many times in our life the birthing process of being a christian comes with its ups and downs.
Some of us started being a christian in the past and aborted it.
The pain was too hard.
The changes happening within were too difficult so we aborted the birth of new life within us and returned to the old ways.
But we returned too the Lord to allow
When the Seed is planted in Us, it is up to us to allow the full growth of it.
As natural birth comes with its challenges and its pain so too, does our spiritual growth and maturity.
Part of the process to be a christian includes.
Belief
Repentance
Be born again
The process begins with Belief
Believing there is a God is a start.
But it cannot be left there with belief only.
Believing there is a God is good.
But that is not enough.
Many people believe but still live as if He doesn't require anything from their lives.
There needs to be Repentance
It is to feel sorry for your sins.
Recognizing your need of change.
Recognizing your need for deliverance.
Recognizing that something is missing in your life.
Feeling sorrow is good but a desire for change must follow.
Many feel sorrow for what they do, but never change.
God wants a conversion as the verse says.
Be Born Again
You believe in God.
You have repented of your sins and life choices.
Now you are to go through a lifestyle change.
This is the part that many fall short.
They believe in God and feel sorrow for their sins.
They love the idea of God as a Father and Jesus as a loving savior.
They love the feeling and the joy behind it all.
But God desires children.
To be born again is to go through a process of change.
We all know that a baby in a womb goes thru 9 months of development before birth.
Many start the journey of being born again.
But many abort the plans of God in their lives because they do not allow the full process to come to fruition.
All things have become NEW!!!
But that is up to you whether you allow it to.
In the parable of the Sower is sometimes called the parable of the Soils.
What type of ground will you be when receiving the SEED?
The parable says that some seed fell by the wayside and the birds came and devoured it.
These are the ones who lack understanding of what it requires.
So the enemy comes in a snatches it up.
Those who are too distracted to pay attention.
Some fell on stony places, where they lacked earth.
No roots.
These are the ones of find joy in the Word and grow for a time.
But as soon as the going gets tough they have no roots and fall away.
Some fell among the thorns.
This is the one who allows the cares of this word to choke the life out of him.
The deceitfulness of riches and material things.
The one too focus on this world and what they can get from it that they dont grow spiritually.
And some fell on GOOD dirt.
These are the ones who receive the Word, understands and allows for the WOrd to change them.
What kinda dirt you wanna be?
I wanna be good Dirt!!!
For that to happen
You neeed to ..
Let your mind be born again also.
Seek after the things above.
Let the earthly nature die.
The process of the new birth comes with new features.
A Radical change
Many think out there that being born again is to act and look like the old person.
to be radically changed by GOd is to be radically changed by God.
Your mind is to be fully changed
Let the WORD Grow in you and Change you.
I believe every person starts the process to be a born again christian when they decide to follow Christ.
Some don’t allow the process to work the new birth in them and walk away.
Some might have started it and are still unsure if they wanna follow Christ and have stalled the growth.
You started the process and maybe 2 years later it hasn’t grown yet.
But that depends on what type of dirt you will be.
Will you allow the WORD to GROW in you and CHANGE you into a new CREATION!!!
