CHOKE

Posted on: 06-10-2012


And that sown into the thorns is this: he, who hears the Word; and the anxiety of this world, and the deceit of riches, choke the Word, and he becomes unfruitful. (Matthew 13:22)

This verse stated by Lord JESUS CHRIST mentioned two important things which eat up a Christian believer life like a termite eating wood. These things are ANXIETY and DECEIT OF RICHES. These are the two weapons used by the DEVIL in Spiritual WARFARE against humans. The bible is complete revelation of almighty GOD by himself in the form of 66 books written by 40 authors in different phases of human civilization. Even Christ himself was tempted by Devil in wilderness on two issues mentioned above; the only remedy was word of GOD spoken with faith.

Therefore, Paul has mentioned that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable to His death; (Philippians 3:10). Unless we learn the duty of a believer mentioned further by Paul Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God which passes all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7) Further mentioned in book of Matthew Therefore do not be anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, With what shall we be clothed? For the nations seek after all these things. For your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. (Matthew 6:31-33). So do not be choked after hearing the word of living GOD, but be relieved in Christ Jesus thorough his Holy Spirit (Our Helper).

Because the Word of GOD says: But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

So believe and be blessed in CHRIST's riches and Glory!

AMEN
