How the Kingdom of God Works -Mark 4: 13-29

The blessing of believers are located in the Kingdom of God. It is the Father’s good pleasure to give us the kingdom (Luke 11:32).This kingdom is neither here nor there; it is within the believer(Luke 17:21).The Lord Jesus told us in Matthew 6:33, that as we seek the kingdom of God and it’s righteousness, all we need are added to us. The scriptures tell us in Romans 14:17, that the kingdom of God is not meat and drinks, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Our text tells us that the Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed into the ground. The seed is the Word of God. The ground is our hearts not our heads. Once we declare the word of God through saying, confession or prayer concerning any issue, the process of seed, time and harvest is commenced(Genesis 8:22). Each seed have differing periods of germination. We shall first see the blade, the ear of the full corn and finally the full corn (Mark 4:26-29).
Initially we receive the harvest in a trickle depending on the seed gestation period and ultimately the full blown blessing. For example for healing, we may experience an initial relief from pain (the ear), followed by a greater degree of healing unto full manifestation of wholeness. We must not abort the fruiting process before full manifestation. Whilst waiting we should continue to give thanks for the “blade” measure of the blessing, to receive the wholeness from the Lord. Remember the case of the ten lepers in Luke 17:11-19. Only one of the ten, according the blade measure of blessing and gave thanks, and God proceeded to make him, whole-the full corn. So we must acknowledge the receipt of the “blade” measure of our blessings in order to receive full blessings. That is how the Kingdom of God works.
We can also receive instantaneous healing based on the spiritual gifts or the faith some minister is releasing, but this is not the best, because when the enemy challenges your faith later, there may be no word foundation to resist him;, and the offences in our lives may make a shipwreck of the blessing (John 5:13-14, Matthew 12:43-45, 1 Timothy 1:19)
