Mark 4:30-32

Peace to you my brothers and sisters.

Today’s Bible Verse: [Mark 4:30-32 KJV] And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? [It is] like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

So, what is Mark telling us here? Simply put, the kingdom of God will grow and grown until it consumes all of the earth.

[Daniel 2:34-35 KJV] Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet [that were] of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

This is a description of the kingdom of God filling the earth as well.

Rest assured that His kingdom is growing through the Holy Spirit and His church. It may not be readily apparent but there are more and more disciples of Jesus that are realizing that His kingdom is working through them and they are working through Jesus and the Holy Spirit to spread His authority.

Don’t sit on your hands waiting for a rapture; let the Holy Spirit guide you in doing something. Don’t sit in the pews listening to the false prophets drone on; let the Holy Spirit guide you in making a difference.

If you believe that Jesus suffered and died on the cross for our sins, was buried, rose again to defeat death, and was seen by many then you have salvation at your fingertips. Use it to bring the gospel and His word to others. Become a leader in your community to show others the true authority of Jesus over the heavens and the earth. Grow His kingdom.

We all have a job.

[Matthew 28:18-20 KJV] And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen.

All of the disciples of Jesus are to spread His word and the gospel.

This is the gospel: [1 Corinthians 15:1-6 KJV] Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

Go forth and spread this good news.

I hope this has been a blessing to you. May the rest of your day be blessed. Peace.
