Today’s Scripture

Let me explain: The farmer sows the Word as seed, and what falls on the beaten path represents those who hear the Word, but immediately Satan appears and snatches it from their hearts. The seed sown on gravel represents those who hear the Word and receive it joyfully, but because their hearts fail to sink a deep root into the Word, they don’t endure for long. For when trouble or persecution comes on account of the Word, they immediately wilt and fall away.

Mark 4:14-17

Today’s Thought

Before you can build upward, you're going to have some words built in you to create a strong foundation downward. The words in you allow you to root down deep, so remember to guard everything you hear because it's creating your future.

Today’s Confession

Lord, help me to continue to receive your Word and plant it deeply in my heart. I allow your Word to root down deep and I guard it from the enemy, because your Word is creating my future. Help me to hold on to your Word no matter what I face.
